Israeli company providing stolen-vehicle recovery, tracking and fleet telematics services, mainly in Israel and Brazil.
Charges a recurring monthly fee for tracking and recovery service, with devices and installation sold up front, and insurers value it because recovered vehicles lower their claims. The ongoing subscription base, not device sales, is the steadier part.
Moat: narrow (installed base, regulatory licence, network effects). A large installed subscriber base and integration with insurers/police create switching costs.
