    Platform Overview

    Motive (formerly KeepTruckin) has evolved from an ELD compliance startup to a comprehensive fleet automation platform serving 100,000 customers and 1.3M drivers. Their July 2025 $150M raise from Kleiner Perkins at positive cash flow positions them for IPO with JPMorgan as lead bank.

Enterprise customers like FedEx Freight, Cintas, and KONE demonstrate their move upmarket, with enterprise ARR doubling since 2024.
