Company
Enode
An API for electric vehicles and other energy hardware
We make an API that connects apps directly to users' energy devices like electric vehicles, solar inverters, home batteries, and thermostats. Our API lets developers access, control, and integrate these devices in their products without building device-specific integrations themselves.
We live in Oslo, Norway, and the company is based here with a remote team. After YC, we plan to remain based in Oslo while growing our remote-first setup.
Oslo is where we are from and have built our initial network and team. The energy market and electrification movement here is advanced enough to build a global product. Being remote-friendly lets us hire talent worldwide.
