Executive Summary
Company: Kurb Kars Mission: To solve the rural mobility crisis by providing reliable, tech-enabled transportation solutions for essential services and adventure tourism, building the foundation for the autonomous network of tomorrow.
The Problem: Rural communities, like La Paz County, are “transportation deserts.” This lack of reliable mobility isn’t an inconvenience; it’s a critical barrier to economic growth and public health. An estimated 3.6 million Americans miss or delay essential healthcare each year due to transportation issues, a problem that is acutely felt in rural areas.
Our Solution: Kurb Kars is a multi-phase mobility provider.
- Phase 1 (Now): We provide reliable, human-driven transportation services focused on two key, underserved markets: a guaranteed-revenue contract with Digital Adventures Outdoors R Us for adventure tourism, and the high-need Non-Emergency Medical Transportation (NEMT) market.Phase 2 (The Future): We leverage our operational data and our strategic partnership with DeReticular’s high-bandwidth network to become the premier platform for deploying and managing a rural autonomous transportation network, solving the NEMT crisis at scale.
Our Unfair Advantage: We are not starting from zero.
- Day 1 Revenue: We have a foundational, cash-flow-positive contract with DAO R Us.Tech-Ready Infrastructure: Our partnership with DeReticular provides the essential network connectivity for advanced telematics today and full autonomy tomorrow.Data-as-a-Product: Our vehicles are data-gathering assets. The operational data we generate is sold under contract to DeReticular, creating a high-margin, recurring B2B revenue stream that subsidizes our fleet operations.
Financial Highlights: Our dual-revenue stream model (transportation services + data services) is projected to scale to $2.9M in revenue by Year 3 with a solid 28% EBITDA margin, showcasing strong operational efficiency even with a physical fleet.
The Ask: We are seeking $1,000,000 in seed funding in exchange for a 20% equity stake. This capital will be used for the strategic acquisition of a foundational fleet of 10 vehicles, crucial insurance and licensing costs, and the development of our NEMT partnership program.
Valuation: The requested financing implies a
4.0M pre−money valuation ∗∗anda∗∗ 5.0M post-money valuation. This valuation is justified by our unique position as a technology-enabled logistics company, not a simple taxi service, with secured contracts, a clear path to the high-growth autonomous sector, and a valuable data-as-a-service business model.

This individual will manage drivers, vehicle maintenance schedules, and dispatching.
