Amber Group has acquired a 50 per cent equity stake in OnTime Taxi, one of the Nation’s most reputable taxi services.
OnTime is set to be rebranded as Amber OnTime. That’s according to a statement by Amber Group.
It says this strategic partnership aims to transform the market by integrating advanced applications with innovative AI features, enhancing user experience and safety standards.
Amber says for the first time ever in the taxi industry, all OnTime taxis will be equipped with physical panic buttons for passengers with armed security response.
The platform will be backed by Amber Connect’s real-time tracking with AI enabled route and dispatch management functions.
It says advanced AI dashcams will allow superior driver behaviour monitoring, promote safer driving habits, and help reduce the likelihood of accidents, thereby lowering insurance premiums for operators. .
Amber Group’s Founder and CEO, Dushyant Savadia, expressed that the partnership is a transformative leap for the local Public Passenger Vehicle market.
