History
Motus was founded in 2004 as Corporate Reimbursement Services, Inc. (CRS) by Gregg Darish, and changed its name to Motus in 2014.[5] In 2009, Gregg Darish hired Fil Firmani as CTO to lead the technology and product strategy and evolution of the company. Fil was able to create a cloud-based scalable, mobile, API, and AI driven platform. Fil, along with Gregg, created the baseline for a sustainable, self-funded growth company with high margins and a high growth rate. Craig Powell (businessman and entrepreneur) later joined the company in 2014 and led the Company for 9 years through continued accelerated growth. He retired from his role as the President and CEO in January of 2022, after scaling the business from roughly $10 million in revenues to $150M and selling the business. He currently serves as an advisor to the Board of Directors.[6]
In August 2014, Motus released an integration with American cloud computing company Salesforce.com to instantly associate business stops with accounts, contacts and leads in the Salesforce customer relationship management (CRM) product.[7]
In 2015, Motus announced an integration with American travel management company Concur Technologies to allow employees to submit mileage to Motus, calculate individual reimbursement amounts, and automatically create expense reports in Concur Expense for manager approval.[8]
In September 2015, Motus released an integration with Oracle Corporation to instantly associate Motus administrative activities with Oracle customer relationship management (CRM) software.[9]
In 2018, Motus was acquired by private equity and growth capital firm Thoma Bravo, LLC and merged with Runzheimer, creating the leading provider of mileage reimbursement technologies serving the nation's most complex transportation companies.[10][11] It also partnered with FleetCor Technologies, Inc., which provides fuel cards and workforce payment products and services.[12]
In September 2019, Motus acquired the Danvers, Massachusetts, based mobile expense management firm Wireless Analytics.[13][14]
In September 2020, Motus acquired the Augusta, Georgia, firm, Vision Wireless, further strengthening their mobile expense management services.[15]
