no OBD dongle and works across brands is the part that stands out to me here - most of the trip logging apps I've tried either need a plug-in dongle or only work with one manufacturer's own API. is this pulling from each maker's official connected-car service under the hood (Tesla API, etc for each brand) with you handling the different formats, or is there some more universal telemetry standard newer cars expose that you're tapping into. asking because that answer basically decides which of my family's cars will actually show up in this and which won't
Very interesting concept what is the usp of Aximote compared to other OEM apps?
Congratulations on the launch! The app fills a gap many modern cars seems to fail at. With cars nowadays being computers on wheels with a ton of sensors, it's strange something like this has not been introduced earlier by car makers or similar.
I'm looking forward to follow your journey, good luck!
Congrats on launching today @laurenz_hinterholzer Very interesting concept, how are your early users using Aximote? What are the most interesting insights they've gained?
Actually, this app tells you a lot more about your driving than about your car. It’s a bit of a fitness app four driving skills - economic, sporty, efficient, long-haul, however you want it, both in the car and on the phone, across many cars and brands.
Hi Product Hunt 👋
When we first launched Aximote here in May, it lived almost entirely inside the car. That was useful while driving, but it left one big gap: once you parked, there was no good place to understand what had actually happened.
Today, we’re closing that gap with Aximote for iPhone.
Every trip appears automatically in a personal dashboard. You can see what it consumed and cost, how efficiently you drove, how your results change over time, and how one drive compares with another — without an OBD dongle or manual trip logging.
For this release, we built:
📊 A customizable dashboard with more than 20 vehicle metrics ⚡ Our new Efficiency Score 🔌 Detailed trip, charging, consumption and cost analytics 📈 Trends and comparisons across trips and compatible vehicles 🚘 Support for multiple cars and one continuous driving history 🌗 A completely redesigned interface with light and dark mode and detailed 3D car models
The part I’m most excited about is not simply having Aximote on another screen. The iPhone app turns your driving history into something you can revisit, compare and keep across vehicles.
Your data lives with your Aximote account instead of being limited to a single car or manufacturer app. So when you manage multiple cars or change brands, you don’t have to start from zero again.
Since our first launch, more than 10,000 drivers have joined Aximote and together tracked over 1 million trips. Their feedback shaped almost every part of this release.
We’d love to learn from the Product Hunt community again:
After finishing a drive, what is the one thing you wish your car explained better?
