Brazilmobility/ride-hailingFounded 2018

Kovi is a Brazilian mobility startup that provides car rental and subscription services specifically for ride-hailing app drivers. It solves the problem of access to vehicles for drivers who may lack credit history or upfront capital, offering both annual contracts with a purchase option and flexible short-term rentals with a minimum stay of eight weeks. The service includes maintenance, insurance, documentation, and 24/7 assistance, with no credit approval or credit card limit required. Kovi operates in Brazil with physical locations in São Paulo, Porto Alegre, Belo Horizonte, and Brasília, and has raised $30 million in Series A funding from global investors, backed by Y Combinator.
