EMabler is an EV charging infrastructure software company that develops an API-first platform used by businesses to operate, manage, and scale electric vehicle charging networks. It provides a centralized system for charge point management, billing, pricing, roaming, and energy optimization, allowing operators to control large networks of EVchargers from a single platform. The software connects charging hardware with business systems such as CRM, payment, and energy management tools through open APIs and a large library of integrations. The company focuses on enabling enterprises, such as energy utilities, parking operators, and retail businesses, to embed EV charging directly into their existing services and digital platforms rather than building standalone charging systems. This includes white-label solutions where charging is integrated into a company’s own app or customer experience under its brand. | Series A / Jun 05, 2024 | |
