India's EV owners deal with a dozen disconnected companies. We are putting all of it under one roof.
The ATev app is the first door into that. It is not the whole house.
Every part of the Indian EV market has an owner except the driver's experience of it. Four gaps, each one a business someone should have built by now.
Gap 01
A different app, wallet and balance for every network. Money gets trapped, and the map still cannot tell you whether the charger works.
Gap 02
Real range figures, society permissions, service bills, which highway stop is dead — all of it scattered across WhatsApp groups, and lost the moment the group goes quiet.
Gap 03
A used EV is priced like a petrol car, with no read on battery health. Buyers overpay or walk away, and sellers lose value they earned.
Gap 04
Manufacturers sell the car, networks sell the electricity, dealers sell it on. When something goes wrong in between, the owner is alone.
Founding-member sign-ups are open. The list is filling across India, and the order we open in follows it.
Operator conversations are underway so that live status and one-wallet payment work across networks, not one at a time.
Discovery, wallet and the charging flows are designed and in development.
The community opens to founding members first, across India, weeks ahead of the public opening.
Charging goes live in the app: members first, with reservations and a single balance across networks.
Marketplace, valuation and the assistant, in the order members vote for, once charging is carrying real sessions.
Three operators who have already built the two halves of this business — payments at scale, and electric mobility on the ground in India.
Eighteen years at the intersection of technology, strategy and scale, building financial products that serve real needs. That same drive for impact now fuels the next chapter: sustainable mobility.
An EV industry professional with over a decade of experience building and scaling electric-mobility businesses across India.
We intend that to be ATev — and it starts with owners talking to each other.
