We have patented technologies with a focus on artificial intelligence (“AI”), machine learning with optimization, and Smart Deployment algorithms. The technologies involve anticipating passenger demand and dispatching cars in advance to reduce wait times, increase vehicle utilization, and decrease costs. It includes a new and efficient system for tracking and charging customers with preferred rates, supply and demand rates, and “specific” community engagement.

 

We currently own the following patents, which have been issued and which are pending:

The software platform underlying the patents has not generated any revenue to date, and there is no assurance that revenue will be generated from these patent technologies. As a result, we have recorded the patent assets at the cost of patent fees and other expenses incurred to produce and file the patents.
