We are a luxury brand on the outside, but a technology company on the inside, building the world’s first luxury-as-a-service. Operating as a two sided ‘ride-hailing’ marketplace, our platform connects customers in the premium and luxury consumer and business segments with more than 3,000 chauffeur partners in London, Paris, Dubai and beyond.
