Company Description
Marti Technologies, Inc. (NYSE American: MRT) is a technology company that operates Türkiye’s leading mobility app, often described in its disclosures as a mobility super app. Founded in 2018, Marti focuses on urban transportation and last‑mile mobility, combining ride-hailing, two‑wheeled electric vehicle rentals, delivery services and public transportation integrations in a single software platform. According to multiple company press releases, all of Marti’s offerings are supported by proprietary software systems and IoT infrastructure.
Marti’s core business centers on a ride-hailing marketplace that matches riders with car, motorcycle and taxi drivers. The company reports millions of unique ride-hailing riders and hundreds of thousands of registered drivers across Türkiye, with particularly high driver density in Istanbul compared with the city’s traditional taxi fleet. The service is described as aiming to provide readily available, safe and affordable rides for riders while creating economic opportunities for drivers across the income spectrum.
In addition to ride-hailing, Marti operates a large fleet of rental e-mopeds, e-bikes and e-scooters. These two-wheeled electric vehicle services form part of its tech-enabled mobility platform and are used both as a standalone offering and as a way to attract new users into the app ecosystem. Company communications highlight that efficiency initiatives and promotional campaigns in this segment have been used to support profitability goals and to drive additional demand for ride-hailing.
Marti has also expanded into same-hour package delivery, leveraging its network of registered motorcycle and car drivers and its existing super app user base. The company describes this as an extension of its technology platform and operational expertise into last‑mile delivery, targeting urban package delivery demand in Türkiye. Within the same app, users can request a ride or initiate a delivery and digitally track their package.
As part of a broader mobility-as-a-service strategy, Marti has integrated public transportation options into its app. In its announcements, the company explains that users can plan trips and receive real-time updates with integrated schedules and route data from major urban transport modes such as metros, trams, funicular and cable lines, buses, minibuses, metrobuses and ferries. This integration is initially available in Istanbul, with plans mentioned to expand to other cities, and is positioned as a way to keep riders within the Marti ecosystem even when public transportation is the preferred mode for a particular journey.
Geographically, Marti reports that its ride-hailing operations span 20 markets across Türkiye, following successive expansion waves. These markets include Istanbul, Ankara, Izmir, Antalya, Bursa, Konya, Adana, Kocaeli, Mersin, Kayseri, Aydın, Denizli, Eskişehir, Gaziantep, Manisa, Muğla, Sakarya, Samsun, Tekirdağ and Yalova. Company disclosures state that this footprint covers a large share of Türkiye’s GDP and supports a long-term growth trajectory beyond Istanbul, with an increasing proportion of riders and drivers based outside the country’s largest city.
Marti characterizes itself as the largest provider in Türkiye of several mobility categories, including car-hailing, motorcycle-hailing, e-scooter, e-bike and e-moped services. Its public communications emphasize the scale of its rider and driver bases, the growth of total rides across services, and the use of proprietary technology, AI engineering, business intelligence and regional operations teams to support ride-hailing at scale. The company has also reported inclusion in the S&P Global Broad Market Index (BMI), which it notes as an important milestone for visibility among global equity investors.
From a corporate and capital markets perspective, Marti files as a foreign private issuer under Form 20‑F with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission and is based in Istanbul, Türkiye. The company has described a multi‑year investment plan focused on expanding ride-hailing into additional cities, redesigning its app to feature ride-hailing more prominently, and growing specialized teams such as AI engineering, growth, business intelligence, competitive intelligence and brand marketing. Marti has also disclosed a share repurchase program authorized by its board of directors, with the ability to repurchase a specified amount of Class A ordinary shares within defined time and price parameters.
Marti’s financial communications highlight the monetization of ride-hailing as a key driver of revenue growth and improvements in adjusted EBITDA, while noting continued investment in technology, operations and market expansion. The company publishes Management’s Discussion and Analysis and unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements as exhibits to its SEC reports, providing additional detail on its financial condition and results of operations.

Market context and positioning

It also highlights geographic diversification, noting rising shares of riders and drivers outside Istanbul, and frames nationwide coverage as a long‑term objective.
