SATIcar – an integrated Carsharing management system
SATIcar is an integrated IT system that enables finding a vehicle, renting it with use of a smartphone and at the end paying for renting it. Vehicles that can be rented are motor vehicles, electric vehicles or scooters.
SATIcar is also a self-service platform for booking a company vehicle for business or private needs. It allows you to manage company pool cars, as well as to automatize the rental process for enterprises offering “rent-a-car” services. SATIcar enables precise mapping of rental and vehicle returns policy in accordance with procedures applicable in the client’s company, including vehicle and equipment safety.
The implementation of the SATIcar system is possible even within a month.

- Alerts about unwanted situations: unauthorized opening of the door, going outside the authorized zone, dangerous driving, low battery charge
- Drawing zones on the map with the division into areas with special parking lots and in which the rental ending is allowed or forbidden
- “Hot zones” – that illustrate the start and the end points of the ride, enabling the analysis of the most common rental locations
- Fuel control – comparison of data from fleet cards with refuelled fuel
- Detecting abuse associated with refuelling private cars using fuel cards for carsharing vehicles
- Emergency locking / unlocking of the central lock in the car and blocking / unblocking the ignition
Modern transmitters, dedicated to Carsharing or fleet vehicles, allow you to control your vehicle using satellite communication systems. The system can be adapted to new car models. Using the GMS / GPRS signal, the device provides information on the position and condition of the vehicle as well as messages from two CAN bus interfaces. The CAN bus controls the central lock of the vehicle – analogously or by an automatic keyless remote control. The system checks if the customer has left vehicle registration document, fuel card and keys in the car (if required). The tracker allows you to open the vehicle for service needs with use of bluetooth.
