Founded in 2022 by Samir Bennani and Charles Pommarède, Enakl builds and runs intelligent shared mobility services that combine software and fleet operations to create dynamic, demand-responsive transport networks. Its proprietary platform allows companies, public bodies and commuters to plan, deploy and manage pooled routes in real time, aiming to reduce congestion and carbon emissions while widening job accessibility. After 18 months of R&D, the system is now live and reportedly "widely adopted," and in 2025 the company secured a pilot public contract with the Casablanca–Settat Region, validating its model. The firm is now preparing to launch a SaaS version of its technology, expand commercial teams and test new ride-pooling fleet formats. Proceeds from its recent seed financing will accelerate these initiatives and support broader rollout across Morocco and beyond. No revenue or user figures were disclosed, but investors cite the first public-sector win and rapid product deployment as evidence of traction.

With the new capital, the startup plans to deepen its presence in Kenya, enter neighboring African markets, upgrade its digital infrastructure, and launch a semi-processed product line to capture higher-value markets.
