The Moving Intelligence Group, which Echoes is part of, has acquired TDS Ultra, a UK-based connected fleet intelligence platform. The move brings TDS Ultra’s vendor-agnostic data analysis alongside Echoes’ direct OEM connections, giving fleet managers a broader view of their vehicles from a single group.
Together, the Group now manages more than 850,000 connected vehicles across Europe, one of the largest connected fleet technology groups on the continent.
What TDS Ultra adds for Echoes customers
Echoes already connects directly to vehicle manufacturers, so fleets get real-time OEM data with no hardware to install. TDS Ultra adds a further layer on top: software that pulls together data from any telematics provider a fleet already uses, alongside fuel, cost and risk data, into one normalised view.
For fleet managers, that means broader visibility, covering driver risk, fleet costs and fuel use, sitting alongside Echoes’ real-time OEM data, as part of the same Group.
In their words
“TDS Ultra turns fragmented fleet data into actionable insights, whatever the source. Being agnostic, across OEMs, hardware and data providers, is the hallmark of our Group. Together with Echoes, we’re building harmonised, AI-driven insights that help the largest European fleets protect their assets and improve their operations.”
Mathieu Chènebit, Chief Executive Officer, Moving Intelligence Group
“The need for real intelligence, independent of how the data is delivered, was why we started TDS Ultra. The company will be more future proofed as part of the Moving Intelligence Group.”
Chris Stone, Founder, TDS Ultra
“Our team is excited to join forces with a European business with proven technology expertise. This will enhance what we have already created and help new and existing customers continue to make sense of their fleets and people, through better insights from driver and vehicle data.”
Paul Railston, Managing Director, TDS Ultra
A growing European group
The acquisition builds on the Group’s track record of bringing connected vehicle expertise together. Echoes joined the Group in 2024, adding real-time OEM vehicle data to its portfolio. TDS Ultra’s addition strengthens that data intelligence further and expands the Group’s presence in the UK.
TDS Ultra serves large enterprise fleets and leasing companies, helping finance and operational teams, as well as drivers, reduce risk, cost and emissions. Through its combined offering, the Group now provides fleet intelligence, protection and operational services to lease and rental companies, fleets of any size, and dealerships.
