Letter from the founder

The world, as we know it, is hard to imagine without software. Many of the developments, some of the trends and most of the hypes in recent years would not be possible without utilizing software. Services like Amazon, Uber, Flink or Delivery Hero would not exist without modern technology. Consumers have adopted such technologies and wouldn’t want to miss them.

Headshot Patrick Arle, Founder & CEO of MotionTools

The future is already here, but it’s not yet evenly distributed. We level the playing field for ambitious operators.

But what about all the logistics services in the background? What does technology mean to the workers that make it all happen? How does software help ambitious and typically local operators who are actually responsible for delivering such services? How does it affect business owners and entrepreneurs who are taking risks and are looking for a reward?


The truth is, that there is a huge technology gap between a few, dominating players and a very long tail of small and medium-sized operators that are doing most of the hard work and taking most of the risks.

We have started MotionTools to close this gap. We want to level the playing field by empowering ambitious operators with software that works for them.

We provide a market-leading feature set, wide-reaching customization support, and record-breaking scalability. This enables our customers to focus on the qualities that make their service truly relevant to their local audience and thrive in a world in motion.

Patrick, Founder & CEO

Founder Phrase

"IaaS and PaaS providers such as Amazon AWS, Stripe and Heroku have shown that startups don't always have to reinvent the wheel. MotionTools is like an unfair advantage for corporate innovation teams and start-ups to bring mobility and delivery business models to market faster. This advantage is necessary to keep up with the times in an ever faster changing market.”

Matthias Schrader, Founder of OH-SO Digital

“Shopify has empowered over 1m of merchants to sell online. Getting access to robust, user-friendly and affordable technology is a gamechanger for smaller companies. I am looking forward to supporting a similar success story in the transportation industry with MotionTools”.
