BUILT BY DRIVERS, FOR DRIVERS
The New York City Taxi App is a driver-owned cooperative — putting power back in the hands of the people who know these streets best.
Our Mission
A COOPERATIVE BUILT ON FAIRNESS
The New York City Taxi App was founded on a simple belief: the drivers who navigate this city every day deserve a platform that works for them — not against them.
As a driver-owned cooperative, every member has a voice. We share the revenue, share the decisions, and share the road. No outside investors. No corporate middlemen. Just drivers, dispatchers, and the passengers who depend on us.
We are currently awaiting TLC approval to begin dispatches. When we launch, every ride will support the drivers who make New York City move.
Driver Ownership
Every member is an owner. Profits stay with the cooperative, not outside shareholders.
TLC Licensed
Operating fully within NYC Taxi & Limousine Commission regulations for passenger safety.
Fair Pay
Transparent fare structures designed to ensure drivers earn a living wage on every shift.
NYC Expertise
Our drivers know every borough, every shortcut, and every neighborhood in the five boroughs.
Our Story
FROM THE STREETS OF NEW YORK
New York City taxi drivers have kept this city running through every storm, every shutdown, and every challenge the city has thrown at them. Yet for too long, the economics of the industry have worked against the very people behind the wheel.
The NYC Taxi App was born out of that frustration — and that determination. A group of veteran drivers came together to build something different: a dispatch platform owned and operated by its members, licensed under the TLC, and committed to fair pay and transparent operations.
The Fleet
