BURLINGAME, Calif., Aug. 21, 2018 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Driveroo, the proactive auto care service platform, today announced that it has been chosen by The Delivery Guys, an Amazon last-mile delivery provider that offers honest service, predictable outcomes and on-time delivery. The Delivery Guys will use Driveroo's AI-powered application and service network to service and maintain their fleet of delivery vehicles.
"Given our current rate of growth, we expect to double our business in the coming quarter, and every time our business grows, the overhead of maintaining our fleet goes up exponentially," said Armen Gasanyan, CEO, The Delivery Guys. "Since implementing Driveroo, our delivery vehicles are more likely to be safe, ready, and available, resulting in fewer missed routes and happier drivers. Our drivers are also spending less time on pre-trip and post-trip inspections. Driveroo will help us to scale by allowing our entire team to focus on our core business -- delivering packages."
According to analysts from Research and Markets, the last-mile delivery market in North America is anticipated to grow at a CAGR of 12.76% from 2018-2022. For Amazon alone, the market opportunity is enormous, given that 70% of Americans with incomes of $150,000 or more who shop online have Amazon Prime memberships. In 2018, 51% of U.S. households will be Amazon Prime subscribers, up from 45% in 2017.
Driveroo uses machine learning to determine the likelihood of specific maintenance issues, based on the type of car and its specific history. The company partners with a network of local, BAR Licensed, ASE Certified auto service shops to provide mechanical inspections and all necessary fleet maintenance services and any needed repairs. Driveroo currently serves managers of short-haul delivery services and virtual fleets, used car dealers, car/ride sharing services, and other businesses that need to maintain multiple vehicles. The Driveroo free mobile app is also available for car owners on Android and iOS devices for on-demand maintenance services.
"Up until now, the processes surrounding automotive care have been frustrating and inadequate for drivers, business owners and auto service providers alike," said Leo Sigal, Founder and CEO of Driveroo. "There is very little visibility into the health of vehicles or rationale behind the recommendations made by technicians, and therefore have a low level of trust. Auto service providers are usually struggling with paper-based systems and often have little insight into the specific vehicle they are looking at, leading in some cases to recommendations for unnecessary service, and in other cases, potentially missing things that could lead to serious safety and maintenance issues. Driveroo solves this problem on both ends of the spectrum."
Driveroo utilizes artificial intelligence and machine learning to examine millions of data points in order to accurately predict potential service issues before they arise. The Driveroo mobile app, in combination with partnerships with professional auto service providers, offers more visibility and convenience into the process of automotive care, maintenance, and inspections. Driveroo provides a full range of services, available instantly on-demand, from pre-purchase inspections to fleet care services.
Fleet managers face unexpected expense and logistical complication when vehicles are taken out of commission for repair. Driveroo's technology offers a more effective way to service, inspect, and maintain their vehicles by providing the necessary insight for fleet managers and service shops to make better decisions, based on real data.
