Location data tells a story, and our cloud makes that story clear. With c.technology’s geo engine, every movement of a vehicle is automatically analyzed and turned into meaningful insights. Trips are detected, routes are segmented, and every journey is enriched with detailed geographical information such as terrain, shore zones, or navigation areas.

Staying connected with your customers and partners is essential. With In App Communication Channels, OEMs can share news, updates, and product offers directly inside the applications used by dealers, service providers, and end users.

At c.technology, we’re on a mission to enable intelligent, connected mobility across water and land. That’s why we’re excited to announce our upcoming collaboration with Pollentia Inc., an electric boat manufacturer redefining maritime innovation.

Investing in a vertical SaaS company can be a smart choice for investors who are looking for a high-growth opportunity in a specific industry or market. A vertical SaaS company is a software company that specializes in serving a specific industry or market, such as healthcare, finance, or retail. This specialization allows the company to focus on developing solutions that are tailored to the specific needs of that industry or market.

Vertical SaaS companies specialize in providing software solutions for a specific industry or niche. These companies have a deep understanding of the industry they serve, and their software is tailored to meet the specific needs of that industry. For example, a vertical SaaS company for the healthcare industry would provide electronic medical records software, while a vertical SaaS company for the retail industry would provide inventory management software.
