Brazilian Taxi Networks

The ResolveAÍ App Updates Brazil's Cabs

— December 12, 2014 — Tech
ResolveAÍ is an app that taps into Brazil's existing taxi network to create a seamless travel experience.

ResolveAÍ's genius lies in its ability to adapt. Instead of competing with the current model, a la Uber, the company seeks to join the current system, updating the communication and payments systems in each cab to correspond to the app. You know what they say: if you can't beat 'em, join em! ResolveAÍ cuts through the noise to offer easier, more efficient rides.
