GO Inc.

GO Inc. is a leading Japanese mobility technology company operating under the mission, “Bringing happiness to people through mobility.” The company has positioned itself as a key innovator in reconstructing Japan’s transportation infrastructure by solving deep-rooted social and operational challenges within the mobility sector. The firm's history dates back to 1977, originating from a core entity within the Nihon Kotsu Group. Its current powerful structure was solidified in 2020, following a merger with DeNA’s ‘MOV’ and ‘DRIVE CHART’ businesses, leading to the formation of Mobility Technologies (rebranded as GO Inc. in 2023).

The core of GO Inc.'s business is the development and provision of a comprehensive mobility platform that benefits both taxi operators and end-users. Its flagship product, the taxi-hailing app ‘GO,’ boasts the highest download count in Japan. The app goes far beyond simple ride requests, incorporating sophisticated AI-powered dispatch capabilities, cashless in-car payment systems (GO Pay), and features that optimize both supply and demand, drastically improving the efficiency and quality of the user experience.

In addition to passenger services, GO Inc. offers advanced B2B and safety solutions. ‘DRIVE CHART’ is a next-generation AI-powered dashcam service that continuously monitors driving behavior, analyzes risk factors, and provides feedback to enhance driver safety and reduce traffic accidents. This technology serves as a critical infrastructure component, contributing to the overall safety of the transportation industry.

Furthermore, the company provides ‘GO BUSINESS,’ a corporate solution that allows companies to centrally manage and streamline employee taxi usage, optimizing cost control and expense processing. Another key effort, ‘GO Job,’ addresses the industry's significant labor shortage by providing specialized recruiting support.

GO Inc. is not just an app developer; it is an integrated mobility tech company that has successfully blended decades of taxi industry expertise with advanced technology. With its headquarters located in Tokyo’s prestigious Azabudai Hills and approximately 600 employees across multiple nationwide offices, the company brings together diverse specialists in engineering, data science, product management, and business development. Backed by significant funding from major investors, including Toyota Motor Corporation, NTT DOCOMO, and Goldman Sachs, GO Inc. possesses a robust foundation and a driving passion to transform the mobility landscape, making movement safer, more efficient, and happier for everyone.
