The client

CarKenny Inc.

Households with several vehicles were finding them harder to manage. CarKenny Inc. worked with ScalaCode on an AI-based app to improve vehicle security and bring tracking, access, EV and maintenance management into one place. Kennith, Director of CarKenny, worked with the team from the start.

The challenge

Why managing several vehicles was hard

1

Tracking several vehicles

Owners had no easy way to see where each of their vehicles was in real time.

2

Remote access

Lock control needed secure digital control from a phone.

3

Electric vehicle management

EV owners needed a dedicated system to monitor and control charging and battery status.

4

Maintenance scheduling

There were no efficient reminders or tracking for maintenance checks.
