Member Profile – DIMO

What does your company do? What services or products do you provide?  

DIMO is the next-generation connected vehicle platform. Its privacy-first and AI-integrated infrastructure connects drivers, automakers, and developers to expedite connected vehicle application development while retaining full data ownership by drivers. Through the DIMO Mobile app, drivers gain real-time insights to improve vehicle performance, maximize savings on maintenance, and access a growing suite of marketplace applications while earning rewards in DIMO tokens. DIMO was founded in 2021 by a team with decades of experience across automotive and fintech— including roles at ConsenSys, Vroom, GM, Volkswagen, and Chainalysis.

Why did you join COVESA and how long has your company been a member?

After years of using Vehicle Signal Specification (VSS) in our work, DIMO is now officially a member of COVESA. We’ve been attending the events, speaking with members, and as we are building our own open standards of vehicle connectivity, it’s now the perfect time for us to deepen our involvement.

We believe the industry is just scratching the surface of unlocking the transformative potential of vehicle data, and we are eager to collaborate with other builders to advance this cause. We’ve identified clear pathways to contribute to COVESA standards and extend them, and we’re ready to have that conversation with other fellow members.

What benefits does your participation in COVESA bring to your company and business? 

We’re moving closer to the source of standards setting with other key builders who are advancing the conversation around connected vehicles. After years of working with VSS, we have identified clear opportunities to contribute to COVESA standards. If accepted, they will allow us to collaborate more closely with others across the industry.
