Kinetic delivers digital maintenance and servicing for modern vehicles—including EVs, AVs and PHEVs—via its Kinetic Hubs and revenue-sharing partnerships with collision repair centers, dealerships and rental fleets. The company’s core product is a proprietary software and hardware stack that leverages AI, computer vision and robotics to scan, program and calibrate ADAS and other digital systems. Kinetic currently operates four service hubs (Las Vegas; Orange County, San Bernardino and Lake Elsinore, California) and plans to launch four additional hubs in the coming months to meet rising demand. The hubs are staffed by certified technicians who perform precise servicing and calibration for manufacturers-agnostic vehicles. Kinetic positions its offering as a way to reduce repair times and costs, address a shortage of certified technicians, and accelerate EV adoption by lowering total cost of ownership. The company was founded in September 2021 by Nikhil Naikal and Sander Marques and is headquartered in Santa Ana, California. Kinetic delivers digital maintenance and repair services for EVs, AVs and ADAS vehicles from any manufacturer through its Kinetic Hubs, stand-alone service centers staffed by certified technicians. Its solution is built on proprietary software plus AI, computer vision and robotics to enable precision servicing for consumers, dealers, rental companies and traditional repair shops. The company’s initial customers are predominantly collision repair centers that need AI- and robotics-enabled digital servicing to return vehicles to factory safety and performance standards. Kinetic launched its first hub in Orange County in May and is opening a second hub in Las Vegas this month. The company plans to use new funding to expand its engineering team with AI and robotics talent and to grow its network of Kinetic Hubs. Operationally, Kinetic reports its technicians can deliver 100% precision servicing in under 60 minutes and expects end-to-end cycle time to improve roughly 50% as it scales. Kinetic was founded in September 2021 and is headquartered in Santa Ana, California.
