AI-based vehicle location for lenders and fleet operators

    We know where your vehicle will be. Before anyone sets off.

    TRAICE turns manufacturer connectivity and AI models into a prediction for recovery: where the vehicle is now, where it keeps returning, and the time window worth an agent's journey. No hardware, no retrofit, with the owner's approval.

    For lenders and rental or leasing fleets across the UK and Europe. 30 minutes, no commitment.

    The challenge

    The vehicle already reports its data. Nobody predicts where it will be.

    Most vehicles in your book already report location and mileage to the manufacturer. That data never reaches the team chasing the asset.

    No current location

    The address on file is where the vehicle was, not where it is.

    Agents get dispatched to addresses that stopped being correct months before the account went into default.

    Manual investigation

    Finding a vehicle means jumping between systems, spreadsheets and phone calls.

    A single case can involve CRM records, field calls and a trace agency before anyone sets off.

    Wasted attempts

    Visits are timed by the agent's diary, not by when the vehicle is actually there.

    A failed visit costs the fee, the mileage and the day, and often warns the keeper.

    No audit trail

    What was checked, by whom and on what basis is scattered or missing.

    Complaints and regulatory questions arrive months later, when nobody can reconstruct the case.

    Platform Architecture

    Five Layers. One Intelligent Platform.

    From raw OEM data to actionable predictions — every layer purpose-built for automotive fleet operations.

    01

    Data Foundation

    One platform for OEM connected car data, with direct API integrations into 28 automotive brands — no aftermarket hardware, no manual uploads.

    Intelligence & Analytics Engine

    Specialised models that turn raw telemetry into structured intelligence — pattern recognition, anomaly detection and behavioural analysis.

    How It Works

    Three steps to better vehicle decisions

    01

    Connect Your Fleet

    We connect to 28 OEM APIs — no hardware, no installation, just VINs.

    02

    Process the data

    We process location, telemetry and ECU data to highlight patterns, recurring locations and anomalies.

    03

    Get useful insights

    Receive alerts for mileage fraud, recovery and maintenance — all from the same data.

    Evidence

    How to judge this without taking our word for it

    We do not publish customer quotes, because we do not have approval to name the portfolios we work with. What we can show you instead is exactly how the platform reaches its conclusions.

    Where the data comes from

    Live, owner-approved manufacturer data straight from the vehicle. Nothing is fitted, nothing is retrofitted, and no aftermarket tracker is involved.

    How we reach a conclusion

    AI models build recovery windows from repeated presence at the same place, at the same time of day, over several days of driving data — not from a single ping.

    What we deliberately do not do

    No covert surveillance, no continuous driver monitoring, no data beyond the case in hand. Access is case-scoped, logged and time-limited.

    How it stands up to scrutiny

    Lawful basis documented, DPA available before any pilot, EU-hosted infrastructure, retention limits and a full audit trail.

    Read the lawful basis for vehicle location data or the full FAQ.

    Implementation

    A ready-to-use web platform instead of an IT project

    No hardware. No changes to your IT stack. No changes to your existing process. Integration into your own systems is optional and comes later.

    01

    Contracting & DPA

    Straightforward controller–processor agreement scoped to your use case.

    02

    Portfolio onboarding

    You name the vehicles in scope, we handle the manufacturer connectivity.

    03

    Team works in the web platform

    Accounts created, your team logs in and works in the browser. No install, no integration project.

    04

    Optional integration later

    If you want the data in your own systems, we build that together — typically in a few days.
