Welcome to Miami\u2019s traffic-clogged slice of paradise, Fetii.<\/p>\n

With $7.35 million in support from investors that include Mark Cuban and Y Combinator, Austin-based on-demand ride-share company Fetii<\/a> has arrived in the Miami area, Forbes reported<\/a>.<\/p>\n

But Fetii\u2019s offering is different from the rest of the pack. It offers rideshare service only to groups in vans for up to about 15 passengers. The service, like other ride shares services, is booked and paid through its app, but Fetii splits the tab between the passengers. It\u2019s for any group that needs to get from point A to point B, the startup says, such as for friends\u2019 outings, corporate shuttle service, and big events.<\/p>\n

Fetii\u2019s announcement follows a three-week beta test in South Florida market, which Fetii defines as Fort Lauderdale to Miami, including Key Biscayne and Miami Beach, Fetii co-founder and CEO Matthew Iommi told Forbes.<\/p>\n

Iommi calls the problem Fetii is solving the \u201cUber convoy.\u201d We\u2019ve all been there. After a conference or concert, the attendees make their way to the curb, all waiting for separate ride shares. It\u2019s a \u00a0waste of fuel and snarls traffic even worse than normal for our car-crazy region.<\/p>\n

\u201cFetii is experiencing record-breaking growth because we\u2019re solving the \u2018group-density\u2019 problem that traditional rideshare isn\u2019t built for. With rising gas prices,\u00a0consumers, drivers, and fleet operators are swarming to Fetii,\u00a0where our high-capacity unit economics and revenue-per-gallon are unmatched,\u201d Iommi said on LinkedIn<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Fetii, founded in 2020, already operates in Dallas-Fort Worth, Houston, San Antonio, College Station and Austin in Texas, along with Phoenix and Scottsdale in Arizona, Atlanta, Nashville, Tuscaloosa, Alabama, and Baton Rouge, Louisiana. More markets are coming soon, according to Iommi. <\/p>\n

\u201cMiami is the fastest growing launch we\u2019ve had, compared to all of our 14 other markets,\u201d Iommi told Forbes. \u201cSo we see this market in about 12 to 18 months, surpassing all of them and becoming our number one revenue market.\u201d<\/p>\n
