MOVO Fleet offers comprehensive tracking and management services for company-owned and partner vehicles, utilizing data to solve delivery challenges.
MOVO Vista digitizes dispatch and order management processes, moving away from traditional methods to more efficient digital solutions.

Hacobu operates on a subscription-based revenue model for its logistics solutions, with monthly fees starting from 30,000 JPY for services like the MOVO Berth truck reservation system. Pricing varies based on the specific solutions used and the scale of client operations, facilitating direct B2B transactions with logistics providers and shippers.
Revenue is structured around client engagement with the systems, reflecting a stable income stream associated with the adoption of Hacobu's innovative tools and consulting services. In May 2025, Hacobu raised JPY 5. 6 billion in venture funding, intended for product development, the launch of new business initiatives, recruitment, and marketing strategies to support expansion. The company plans to release new products and expand its market presence, focusing on untapped regions and industries to broaden its reach in the logistics sector.
