About MapUp

Fleets bleed money on tolls and fuel every day: 30+ day toll bills, surprise violations, and out-of-network fuel stops. MapUp plugs the leaks. Founded in Silicon Valley and operating in 100+ countries, MapUp with its GPS + AI platform helps fleets cut toll spend, fill-up cheapest in-route fuel, and drives compliance with navigation that actually updates on the go. The payoff? Real ROI: lower costs, faster billing, happier drivers.

By turning fragmented data into real-time decisions, MapUp is building the intelligence layer for fleet economics, transforming a fragmented industry into one powered by data, automation, and insight. For more information, visit MapUp and its solutions here.
