Investor FAQ — Orbicart
Why Orbicart?
EV charging is fragmented. Drivers often need multiple apps, provider accounts, subscriptions and roaming solutions to find a suitable charging price.
Orbicart is building a price-first charging platform that combines charger discovery, price information, charging and payment in one Web-App.
Why is Orbicart different?
Orbicart is not another charging network or simply another charging app. Our goal is to become an independent price and transaction layer between EV drivers and the fragmented charging market.
- No app installation
- No additional provider registration
- No subscription for users
- No hidden charging costs
- Current energy and charging cost are visible to the user
- Direct provider prices can be compared with roaming prices
Why will users choose Orbicart?
The user wants one simple answer: where can I charge my car at the best available price?
Orbicart brings charging information, pricing, charging and payment into one experience instead of requiring the driver to manage multiple provider apps and subscriptions.
How does Orbicart make money?
Orbicart uses a transaction-based business model. Revenue is generated when users charge through Orbicart. There is no mandatory subscription for users.
How will Orbicart achieve lower prices?
Orbicart is building access to multiple pricing sources. Roaming prices provide an important comparison point, while direct provider and future Floute prices can enable more competitive charging prices.
Our goal is to make the Orbicart price lower than the comparable roaming price whenever the available commercial agreements allow it.
Is the product already built?
Yes. The Orbicart Web-App already supports the core charging journey: finding a station, viewing charging information and price, navigating to the charger, activating charging, monitoring energy and cost, stopping charging remotely and paying through Orbicart.
What is the technology behind Orbicart?
Orbicart is built with Angular and Hono and runs on Cloudflare. The platform is structured as a CMS, allowing pages, banners and statistical content to be managed efficiently.
Station and area pages can also be generated dynamically, creating scalable content around charging locations and prices.
Where is Orbicart today?
The core product and charging flow are already developed. The current focus is Germany, with European expansion planned.
The next major step is establishing the company and securing commercial integrations with charging providers and roaming partners.
Why invest now?
Orbicart is at the pre-seed stage. The product foundation already exists, while the company is entering the phase where commercial provider access, pricing integrations and market launch can turn the technology into a scalable business.
This gives early investors the opportunity to participate before the company reaches later financing stages.
What will the first investment finance?
- Company formation and legal setup
- Commercial provider and roaming integrations
- Technical integration and infrastructure
- Initial market launch
- Operations and growth
Why can Orbicart compete with existing platforms?
Orbicart does not need to build the largest charging network. The opportunity is to make the existing fragmented network easier to access and economically better for the driver.
Our competitive advantage is the combination of price intelligence, charging access, payment and a Web-App experience without requiring users to install another application.
What is the long-term vision?
Orbicart aims to become the independent price and transaction layer for EV charging across Europe: one platform where drivers can discover charging options, compare prices and charge at the best available price.
