JOKR is a rapid grocery delivery startup founded in 2021 that achieved remarkable growth, crossing the $100m annualized revenue run-rate mark in under ten months and reaching unicorn status by December 2021. With development teams in New York, Tel Aviv, Berlin and São Paolo, JOKR maximizes efficiency by running operations on Google Cloud and leveraging Software-as-a-Service solutions. The company's VP Technology Jens Wübbenhorst explains their approach: 'We try to use managed services as much as possible – with the idea in mind that there are people who have these technologies under control, so we don't need to run them on our own.'
JOKR's success depends on accurate location services through Google Maps Platform for their AI-powered delivery app. As a premier service, Google Maps Platform requires considerable expertise to avoid cost overruns while ensuring optimal performance. The company needed to monitor costs closely while maintaining the personalized customer experience that drives their rapid delivery business.
DoiT provided specialized guidance on Google Maps Platform performance and cost optimization. Tony Braun, DoiT's Location Services Specialist, helped JOKR optimize their usage of Geocoding API, Place Autocomplete, Mobile Dynamic Maps, Maps Javascript API, and Distance Matrix API. DoiT also provided rapid support for critical issues and guidance on technology choices across Google's product suite.
DoiT solved JOKR's problems across a range of issues and products – and solved them quickly. It's reassuring that we always have someone who really knows about these products. We can't afford downtime, so having someone who can jump on a call and talk things through is super helpful.
Jens Wuebbenhorst, VP of Technology, JOKR
As JOKR focuses on the Latin American market where operations can be more cost-efficient, Google's global standardization capabilities have proven invaluable. The company doesn't need to build everything from scratch, instead leveraging Google's broad service portfolio. Jens notes the ongoing challenge: 'Finding the right tools and coming up with meaningful, scalable solutions traffic-wise and cost-wise is one of the big challenges. Google Cloud gives us a broad variety of services, and with DoiT as our partner, we can really make use of them.' This partnership has enabled JOKR to maintain their rapid delivery promise while operating efficiently across multiple markets.
Explore how Cloud Intelligence™ helps teams improve visibility, governance, and unit economics across cloud environments.
DoiT gave us the confidence to move from experimentation to production. They helped us understand the right way to build AI for the real world.

Attribute™'s cost grouping technology took our cost visibility and allocation to a whole new level. Now, our teams are fully accountable for their budgets, significantly improving our cloud efficiency and helping us minimize unnecessary costs.
Eli Zilbershtein, Head of DevOps, Hippo
You can't tag a customer in a multi-tenant environment. Attribute™ finally shows us what each customer costs and what's driving those costs.
Omri Cohen, Director of Engineering, Platform
Attribute™'s data is truly unmatched. No other solution on the market could deliver the precise customer cost and usage profiles we needed in such a complex infrastructure. Within weeks, the data from Attribute™ transformed our understanding of cost structures, influencing key strategic decisions in pricing, renegotiations, and market positioning.
Jonathan Langer, COO, Claroty
Attribute™ simplified tracking customer costs in our multi-tenant environments. Customer cost measurement is now clear and standardized, and finance gets the business context they need. Integration was quick and required no changes.
Kfir Lippmann, CFO, Salt Security
Attribute™ translates complex cloud bills into actionable, business-centric insights that empower our engineering teams to take true ownership of their costs.

This has let us get a better idea of what our cost of goods sold really is. It's not every day you come across something that delivers value as quickly as yours did for us. I was seeing useful insights inside the POC, and we had only deployed it to a couple of real clusters.
Jason Moore, Principal DevOps Engineer, Accrete AI
Eliminating the need to tag thousands of resources has freed up my team and we've invested our efforts in enhancing our platform significantly.
Ziv Sivan, VP of Engineering
PerfectScale by DoiT has become an important part of how we optimize Kubernetes at scale at OneFootball. It gives our platform team the visibility, automation, resiliency insights, and confidence we need to balance cost efficiency with production readiness, especially as we prepare for major global football moments like the 2026 FIFA World Cup.
Andrea Benfatto, Platform/Cloud Runtime Engineering Manager
Cloudflow's new RDS End of Life alerts have allowed us to be more proactive on keeping our database instances up-to-date. The new solution gives us internal visibility ahead of time so that we can prepare for upgrades, instead of having to upgrade under pressure while incurring extended support costs.
Jon Fairbanks, Site Reliability Engineering Manager
PerfectScale cut 40% off our total EKS spend, and the automations handle what used to take our team 20 hours a month. Now we spend that time on reliability and performance instead of chasing cost metrics.
Caio Cristo, Director of Infrastructure/SRE
What I really like about DoiT's approach is that you're very hands-on and proactive. Satyam would ping me a few times a sprint, letting me know about the most current features, checking in on how things are going. When we are going through a peak time, that proactiveness makes a real difference. Satyam always comes through whenever we need support and helps us leverage the right experts to get us where we need to be.
Chiamaka Ibeme, Engineering Manager, Platform
SELECT has made important cost data readily accessible. I will often pull it up during engineering design reviews so we can quickly evaluate cost impact and projections and factor that into our design decisions.
