We set out to build a service that allows everyone to enjoy a private driver; a service where cars wait on you instead of the other way around.
Uber is an on-demand car service that allows everyone to have a private driver experience through iPhone, SMS, and web based requests. We are a technology startup that has created a more efficient means of transportation, making your city more useful and more pleasurable to move around in. UberCab connects clients and our network of professional town car and limo drivers in the simplest most elegant way possible, and we do it at a fraction of the cost.
We are a friend to the client first, pushing the limits of the industry to create a simple more efficient car service experience for users. Second, we are a friend and revenue stream to our network of drivers, allowing them to make more money by turning their downtime into profits. Lastly, we're an ally to "the system" playing by the rules of the industry and promoting safety and improved conditions for consumers.
