Taxi App Mobile22 Launches

by Brian Lee

Mobile22, which through its platform focuses on connecting taxi providers and riders, launched earlier this month with its first partner, Green Cab of Madison.

According to a release, the company’s software helps cab companies dispatch their vehicles more quickly and accurately. Meanwhile, consumers have an “Uber-like” mobile app to book local cabs and receive fare estimates.

“We believe the future of mobility is a shared ecosystem,” Mobile22 Founder Shree Kalluri said in a statement. “Shared mobility gives consumers greater flexibility at a lower cost, while reducing their carbon footprint. And we believe taxi providers are going to play a major role in this.”

Mobile22, which supports on-demand, scheduled, shared and direct rides, will look to add regional taxi partners across the country. 

Kalluri also is the CEO of Zerology, whose parent company purchased Green Cab earlier this year.
