Enakl：摩洛哥城市交通新創公司透過智慧集體交通解決方案改變日常通勤

Enakl 由Charles Pommarède 和Samir Bennani 於2023 年創立，後來Ahmed Omrane 加入並擔任首席技術官，Enakl 旨在透過可靠且可訪問的共享交通平台來改變數百萬工人的日常通勤，從而減少擁堵和碳排放。

Moroccan startup Enakl is providing intelligent, safer, and sustainable collective transport solutions for daily commutes both at home and abroad via its digital platform. Founded in 2023 by Charles Pommarède and Samir Bennani, who were later joined by Ahmed Omrane as CTO, Enakl aims at transforming the daily commute of millions of workers with a reliable and accessible shared transit platform that reduces congestion and carbon emissions. The startup’s shared bus platform allows users to book a guaranteed seat for their daily commute to work through an intuitive mobile app. Powered by advanced algorithms and real-time data, Enakl dynamically optimises routes to ensure efficient travel times and high occupancy rates.

摩洛哥新創公司 Enakl 透過其數位平台為國內外的日常通勤提供智慧、更安全和永續的集體交通解決方案。 Enakl 由Charles Pommarède 和Samir Bennani 於2023 年創立，後來Ahmed Omrane 加入並擔任首席技術官，Enakl 旨在透過可靠且可訪問的共享交通平台來改變數百萬工人的日常通勤，從而減少擁堵和碳排放。該新創公司的共享巴士平台允許用戶透過直覺的行動應用程式預訂日常通勤的保證座位。在先進演算法和即時數據的支援下，Enakl 動態優化路線，以確保高效的旅行時間和高入住率。

“By pooling passengers into shared minibuses, the platform reduces congestion, minimises emissions, and provides an affordable, safe, and reliable alternative to traditional public transport,” Pommarède told Disrupt Africa.

Pommarède 告訴 Disrupt Africa：“通過將乘客匯集到共享小巴上，該平台減少了擁堵，最大限度地減少了排放，並為傳統公共交通提供了一種負擔得起、安全且可靠的替代方案。”

Enakl also partners with businesses to offer tailored routes, combining technology and convenience to create a seamless commuting experience for users. In short, the startup bridges the gap between traditional public transport and the growing need for reliable, affordable, and eco-friendly commuting options in densely populated and fast growing emerging cities.

Enakl 還與企業合作提供客製化路線，將技術與便利性相結合，為用戶創造無縫的通勤體驗。簡而言之，這家新創公司彌合了傳統公共交通與人口稠密和快速發展的新興城市對可靠、負擔得起和環保的通勤選擇日益增長的需求之間的差距。

After a successful pilot phase, Enakl has expanded from five to 55 routes, operated daily, and has processed more than 100,000 paid bookings so far. It is currently only operating in Casablanca, but plans to expand and be present in five major African cities by 2030.

經過成功的試點階段後，Enakl 已將航線從 5 條擴展到 55 條，每天運營，迄今已處理超過 100,000 筆付費預訂。該公司目前僅在卡薩布蘭卡開展業務，但計劃在 2030 年擴展到非洲五個主要城市。

With that in mind, the company, initially self-funded by its co-founders, recently secured a US$1.4 million pre-seed funding round led by Catalyst Fund and also featuring Renew Capital, Digital Africa, Station F and 15 business angels. The capital is to speed its growth, both in Morocco and in other markets. Pommarède is optimistic for the future, but says rolling out Enakl has not been without its challenges.

考慮到這一點，該公司最初由聯合創始人自籌資金，最近獲得了由 Catalyst Fund 領投、Renew Capital、Digital Africa、Station F 和 15 個天使投資人參與的 140 萬美元種子前融資。首都將加速其在摩洛哥和其他市場的成長。 Pommarède 對未來持樂觀態度，但表示推出 Enakl 並非沒有挑戰。

“We are breaking the traditional employee transportation market by promoting shared transport between companies, which requires some market education. On the operations side, we are creating our network of routes step-by-step, so it can create frustration for potential clients who don’t find routes for them right now. This won’t be a problem once our network will have more than 250 routes,” he said.

「我們正在透過促進公司之間的共享交通來打破傳統的員工交通市場，這需要一些市場教育。在營運方面，我們正在逐步創建路線網絡，因此這可能會讓目前找不到路線的潛在客戶感到沮喪。一旦我們的網路擁有超過 250 條路線，這將不再是問題。
