Why We Built Mobi: A Flexible Carsharing Platform for the Modern Economy

Let’s face it: the current ways to rent or share a car just aren’t keeping up. 

  • Traditional rental options are clunky and outdated, not built for flexible, everyday use.
  • Car ownership is expensive and inflexible, especially for gig workers, part-time drivers and urban dwellers.
  • Entrepreneurial hosts struggle to earn real income, or are stuck on platforms that don’t support their growth. 

The world needs a better way to share cars.

That’s why we built Mobi — a peer-to-peer carsharing platform designed for flexibility, entrepreneurship, and everyday mobility. Whether it’s a weekend getaway, a gig shift, or simply getting across town, Mobi connects people with the right vehicle, on their terms.

Our seamless, tech-powered platform empowers entrepreneurial hosts to run their own rental businesses–whether they start with one car or manage a growing fleet. Mobi is carsharing with purpose: built on trust, designed for scale, and made for a new generation of drivers and entrepreneurs.

What Makes Mobi Different?

Mobi isn’t just another car rental platform. We’re building a smarter, more human-centered carsharing ecosystem. Here’s what sets us apart:

✔ Earning Potential

With a 90/10 split, hosts keep 90% of their trip earnings — one of the best rates in the industry. Plus, gig drivers can rent and drive for any rideshare or delivery platform while renting with Mobi — ultimately maximizing their earnings on the road.

✔ True Flexibility

No restrictions. Rent a vehicle for gig work, leisure, errands, or business — your terms, your way.

✔ Built on Trust & Transparency

Every user is verified. We offer fraud protection, fair policies, and support that has your back.

Our mission is simple: to make carsharing easier, safer, and more rewarding for everyone — from individual drivers to ambitious hosts.
