Good news! Ordering a cab has just got a whole lot easier, thanks to an innovative, user-friendly application: ITYZ. The time-consuming traditional system has been replaced by an almost instantaneous direct connection. Customers can see their geolocated cab approaching in real time on their smartphone, and drivers can optimize their activity. An innovative and ingenious concept!
Some 17,000 cabs in Paris, but never a car available when you really need one. With ITYZ, there’s no more exhausting wandering. You download the app, the system geolocates you, and puts you in touch with the nearest cabs. The drivers have 60 seconds to accept your request. During this time, you remain comfortably seated on your sofa or at your table in a restaurant. Once you’ve accepted, you can watch your cab move in real time on your smartphone, which can also be used to pay once you’ve reached your destination. No need to stop and withdraw cash. And for the user, the service is free and without obligation!
As far as cabs are concerned, ITYZ is establishing itself as THE solution for better working. Nearly 3,000 cabs have already joined ITYZ to receive at least 3 extra rides a day, without threatening their independence. Drivers are free to choose whether or not to use the app. ITYZ receives a 10% commission for the journeys sent to drivers. ITYZ creates a privileged link between the driver and his customer: once the errand has been accepted, the relationship is established directly, by means of a message or a call.
Before ITYZ, drivers spent an average of 40% of their time empty. Now, thanks to geolocation, they can reach tens of thousands of additional customers, as close as possible to their route, and make the most of their time. Improved service, absolute efficiency and reliability, innovative interface, transparent operation: ITYZ has it all. The cell phone has become the most widely used interface in daily life: on average, a mobile user consults his or her smartphone 67 times a day. ITYZ’s partners have made no mistake: after raising 1.4 million euros, its founders, David Brun (CEO – MBA from Columbia and London Business School) and Grégoire Prévost (marketing, sales, partnerships – MBA from Cornell and ESSEC) are continuing to develop their start-up in the Paris region and soon internationally. They’re on their way to the top… in an ITYZ cab, of course!
