Hailo is the evolution of the hail - a free smartphone app where people are just two taps away from a licensed taxi, and cabbies get more passengers when they want them. Hailo is the world’s highest-rated taxi app, with 6,000 five star reviews, and is used by 20,000 drivers and a quarter of a million registered passengers. A Hailo hail is accepted around the world every eight seconds. Launched in November 2011, Hailo is available in London, Dublin, Toronto, Chicago & Boston - and coming next to New York and elsewhere. Founded by three taxi drivers and three internet entrepreneurs, Hailo is backed by Wellington Partners and Atomico Ventures, the investors in Spotify and founder of Skype, as well as Facebook backer Accel Partners. Hailo is available as a free download from the iTunes App Store and Google Play.
