São Paulo, Brazil

Gringo is a super app for car drivers that makes life easier for millions of drivers in Brazil. The company was founded in early 2020 by senior entrepreneurs and operates through a “despachante-as-a-service” (forwarding agent) model, offering Brazilian drivers an app-based and seamless experience to monitor, manage and pay for documentation, taxes, and fines. Although Gringo started with documentation, the company’s ultimate goal is to expand its offering into other verticals, such as financing, insurance, and buying/selling.

Brazil has more than 70 million licensed drivers, yet its DMVs are still fully analog and provide a poor and complex user experience: traffic fines are still handled on paper via a post office, the websites to calculate annual taxes are broken and confusing, payments are made only by cash or bank slips, and transfer of vehicle ownership needs to be done in person. Additionally, all local states in Brazil have their own systems and websites, making it even more complex for users.

Investment philosophy

ONEVC is a seed-stage venture capital firm backing builders across Latin America. We've helped build companies ourselves and know firsthand the courage, ambition, and energy it takes to build something from scratch. That experience shapes how we invest and how we partner: our builders are the protagonists, and being invited along for their journey is a privilege we don't take lightly. Our job is to serve them and do whatever we can to make them succeed.
