Ever

Driven by the mission of ensuring a smooth and rapid shift toward sustainable transportation, Ever is designed to be the first AI-native, full-stack auto retail business.   The company is helping to drive the adoption of electric vehicles and helping consumers in a fragmented used car industry.

For more people, electric vehicles (EVs) are a new acquaintance and an unknown product; Ever exists to guide and support car buyers through the EV purchase experience.  Working with partners, the Ever team increases transparency and trust when specifically purchasing a pre-owned or used EV.

Headquartered in San Francisco, California, USA, Ever was founded by Lasse-Mathias Nyberg, TJ Casner, and Maximilian Quertermous who bring backgrounds in automotive, consumer technology, and finance from organisations such as Uber, J.P Morgan, and Boston Consulting Group.  The team is working together to rebuild automotive retail from the ground up.  They aim to deliver a better customer experience and solve the complexity that burdens the US$ 1.2 trillion auto market in the United States.

In February 2026, the JIMCO Technology Fund participated in Ever’s US$ 31 million Series A funding round, joining a global deep-tech investor syndicate.  JIMCO’s investment reflects its mission to support technology-enabled businesses who are applying AI to real-economy, operationally complex sectors, driving significant productivity gains.

The US auto retail market – the largest segment of the country’s retail economy – remains constrained by manual processes, outdated third-party software and highly fragmented operations.  The nationwide transition to EVs has only increased this complexity, introducing additional challenges around selection, inventory management, battery health, and consumer education.

Addressing these challenges requires an operating model designed to manage complexity end-to-end.  EV buyers, owners, and sellers, need new, tailored products and experiences; Ever is pushing the industry forward.
