Otonomo

Otonomo operates a connected-vehicle data platform that aggregates, normalizes and delivers telematics and mobility data from millions of connected cars to fleets, insurers, cities and mobility developers. Its Fleet ("Personal Data for Fleets") API exposes OAuth2-secured endpoints for vehicle onboarding (VIN upload / enablement / consent), near-real-time vehicle status, historical fleet points and trips reporting, connectivity checks, an attribute explorer, custom event rules with callbacks, and a streaming interface — across separate US and EU data regions. Otonomo was acquired by Urgently (Urgent.ly) in 2023; the connected-car Fleet data API remains operational and documented on ReadMe at docs.otonomo.io. Originally surfaced as a Bessemer Venture Partners portfolio company and enriched from its live developer surface.

Otonomo publishes 2 APIs on the APIs.io network: EU API and US API. Tagged areas include Company, Connected Vehicles, Automotive, Fleet Management, and Telematics.

The Otonomo catalog on APIs.io includes 1 event-driven AsyncAPI specification.

Otonomo’s developer surface includes documentation, API reference, getting-started guide, support, and 6 more developer resources.
