Building the rideshare platform Central Africa deserves
Our Story
Pronto was founded with a simple observation: millions of people across Central Africa lack access to reliable, safe transportation. In Kinshasa alone, a city of over 17 million people, getting from one place to another is often unpredictable, unsafe, and time-consuming.
We are a team of builders with deep ties to the DRC who believe technology can change this. Pronto combines the convenience of modern ride-hailing with an understanding of the local market. We are not importing a solution from elsewhere. We are building one that fits.
Backed by a US-incorporated company with local partnerships already in place, Pronto is moving fast to bring a better transportation experience to Kinshasa, and eventually to cities across Central Africa.
