About TRAICE
Connected vehicle intelligence for automotive finance, combining manufacturer data with practical intelligence to support recovery, fraud detection and predictive maintenance across financed vehicle portfolios.
Our Mission
Our Mission
TRAICE exists to transform how financed vehicle portfolios are managed. Modern vehicles are increasingly complex, software-driven machines, yet many critical processes like vehicle recovery, fraud detection, and maintenance are still handled manually. Combined with an acute skills shortage, this costs the industry billions annually.
By connecting directly to manufacturer vehicle systems across 24+ OEM brands and applying advanced AI models, we enable financial services companies, OEMs, and vehicle operators to protect their assets, detect fraud, and maintain vehicle health. All from a single, GDPR-compliant platform.
What We Do
Intelligent Vehicle Recovery
AI-powered location intelligence that replaces expensive GPS hardware, connecting directly to 24+ OEM brands to locate and recover vehicles faster and cheaper.

TRAICE was born from real-world experience in automotive dealerships and vehicle financing. After years of navigating vehicle recovery challenges, payment defaults, and asset tracking, we recognized a critical gap: the industry lacked a unified, intelligent platform for managing vehicle risk across the entire lifecycle.
We started with AI-driven vehicle recovery, eliminating expensive GPS hardware and manual field processes. With that foundation proven, we expanded into mileage fraud detection, using ECU telemetry and spatial-temporal AI to uncover odometer manipulation that traditional methods can't detect. Now we're actively building predictive maintenance capabilities to monitor vehicle health in the field and act before breakdowns happen.
Founded in 2024 and headquartered in Nersingen, Germany, TRAICE serves leasing and finance companies across Europe with a platform that delivers measurable cost reduction while maintaining the highest privacy and compliance standards.
