Ulixe Corp. was established in 2020 and, as of the latest publicly available information, has rebranded from WarpSpeed Taxi Inc. to Ulixe Corp. to reflect its expanded strategic focus.

Latest major company changes
- Name change: WarpSpeed Taxi Inc. rebrands to Ulixe Corp., signaling a strategic pivot and broader corporate scope; the renaming aligns with the company’s expanded services beyond traditional ride-hailing.
- Strategic pivot to European IT services: acquisition of Ulixe Italy S.r.l. (via Warpspeed Italy S.r.l. subsidiary) for €3.15 million to establish a dedicated European IT consulting and services platform, broadening revenue streams into core banking, logistics, and technology infrastructure services; accompanying this shift, the company adjusts its fiscal year end to December 31 to align with the acquired entity.
- Revised business focus and structure: the acquisition and rebranding reflect a transition from a pure mobility app provider toward a hybrid business model combining mobility services with enterprise IT consulting and services, supported by a European subsidiary network and cross-border collaborations.
