Case Study: Bonnet launches an EV charging MVP and raises funding with instinctools

Bonnet scales EV charging access with *instinctools across 65,000 points

The UK-based EV charging startup Bonnet partnered with the software development vendor *instinctools to build an MVP for its mobile application. The challenge was to create a seamless app that aggregated over 65,000 charging points across Europe, which required solving complex technical issues. These included ensuring real-time synchronization between the app's front end, back end, and various charging point servers, as well as integrating a secure and reliable payment service with Stripe.

*instinctools developed the Android app, which later served as the basis for the iOS version, featuring a map with search functionality, instant payments, and a subscription model. The successful MVP allowed Bonnet to promptly enter the market, connect with 17+ charging networks, and secure investment from prominent firms like Lightspeed Venture Partners. The high-quality product delivered by *instinctools met the client's expectations and formed the foundation for a fast-growing business.
