Motus Closes Out 2025 with Breakthrough Innovation, Strategic Expansion, and Industry Recognition

From safer driving to smarter reimbursements, Motus advances the future of the business of driving.

BOSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Motus, the leader in vehicle reimbursement, risk mitigation and productivity solutions for companies whose employees drive their own vehicles for work, is closing out 2025 with momentum across product innovation, strategic expansion and industry recognition. Over the past year, Motus strengthened its leadership in the business of driving, helping organizations better manage the costs, risk, and operational realities of employees who drive for work. The company also ends the year with $2.1 billion in approved reimbursements.

A Year That Redefined the Business of Driving

2025 marked a turning point for companies managing employees who drive as part of their job. Rising insurance costs, increasing compliance pressure and evolving workforce expectations pushed organizations to rethink long-standing vehicle programs. Motus entered the year ready for that shift and spent the next 12 months shaping what comes next.

“The business of driving touches finance, safety, operations and the employee experience,” said Phong Nguyen, CEO of Motus. “In 2025, leaders needed clarity and confidence more than ever. Our role was to give them both — through technology, data and insights that make every mile safer and more efficient.”

Expanding the Motus Platform with the Acquisition of Everlance

A defining milestone of the year came in February, when Motus announced the acquisition of Everlance, a mileage and expense tracking solution trusted by millions of drivers, small businesses and sole proprietors. Founded in 2015, Everlance was built to empower people who drive for work with intuitive tools to automatically track mileage, log expenses and maximize take-home pay, bringing a consumer-first experience to the business of driving.

The acquisition significantly expanded Motus’ ability to serve every kind of organization, from the largest enterprises with complex reimbursement and compliance needs to small businesses and independent professionals managing mileage on their own. Everlance’s top-rated mobile experience complements Motus’ enterprise-grade analytics, risk mitigation and reimbursement intelligence, which creates a broader, more flexible portfolio designed to help organizations optimize spend, reduce risk and improve productivity across the full spectrum of the driving workforce.

Raising the Bar on Safety with Road Smart

Motus launched Road Smart, a new addition to the Motus Protect suite designed to help employers proactively reduce risk. Road Smart delivers short, in-app training modules that fit naturally into a driver’s routine, equipping workers with real-world safety skills without adding administrative overhead.

“Road Smart embeds safety into the rhythm of work,” said Nguyen. “It’s practical, proactive, and grounded in what employees who drive for work actually need.”

Motus also delivered targeted upgrades to Insights Pro, giving Finance, HR and Operations leaders clearer visibility into productivity, territory performance and reimbursement efficiency across the business of driving.

Deepening Market Reach Through Strategic Partnership

Earlier in the year, Motus and Element Fleet Management announced a strategic partnership bringing together the leaders in reimbursement and fleet to give organizations a single, comprehensive solution for all drivers, whether they’re in passenger fleet vehicles or their own cars.

The partnership bridges operational silos and gives companies a unified view of costs, compliance, and driver performance across their entire mobile workforce.

Industry Recognition for Innovation and Impact

Motus’ commitment to customers and innovation earned national recognition this year. The company received the Gold Stevie® Award for Company of the Year in the 2025 American Business Awards® — highlighting exceptional customer outcomes, operational excellence, and product innovation.

Motus was also honored with the Inc. Power Partner Award, recognizing organizations that deliver outsized value and partnership to their clients.

“These awards reflect the trust that our customers place in us,” said Nguyen. “We take that responsibility seriously. Every improvement that we make, whether in safety, reimbursement accuracy, or analytics, is designed to help our customers navigate the business of driving with more clarity and confidence. This recognition reinforces that we’re solving real problems that matter to both leaders and their teams.”
