It’s a rebrand of a mass produced product out of China. There are several brand names that look almost identical aside from logos and possibly color. They are fine in a pinch for smaller car tires and inflating things around the house (footballs, bicycle tires, etc.)
I had one under the brand name “Juiced” that looks identical to the airmoto. It worked but I wouldn’t trust it to air up 4 tires after off-roading on a regular basis.
Here is another brand from Amazon that looks identical:

.71 CFM under no load. expect that to get down to .35-.5 as you get closer to desired pressure because of the market it's targeting.
Airmoto quotes 10-20 minutes per truck tire... with max .71 CFM i'd expect that to look more like 25-30 on a 33x10.5. With max battery life of 40 minutes (which is almost certainly an exaggeration based on where it's made) it sounds to me like you may or may not be able to fill up one Rubicon/Mojave OEM tire per charge.
Also, there is zero mention of duty cycle. Never never never buy an air compressor that does not state duty cycle. That 25-30 minutes i quoted you earlier may turn into 50-60 if it's got a 50% duty cycle.
All this is the long way of saying, it looks like a piece of garbage

I have the Harbor Freight knock off. It's $80- or if you are a member, $55-
It gets hot as hell and will bring 4 35" tires from 20-45 psi in about 20 minutes. Worth every penny of it.

as did i... not sure what that has to do with the price of tea in china.
Why are you running your tires at 45psi?
