Improving Its Blockchain Product
Gapless claims it is building the world’s first blockchain-based car management system and will use the new capital to further develop the product while expanding the blockchain architecture and the user base of the app.
With over 50,000 vehicles currently listed in the platform from the US, the UK, and Germany, the startup claims that users can use its app to record a complete history of vehicles.
Gapless allows car owners, collectors, and dealers to digitally manage their vehicles and access services by creating digital profiles of their automobiles, including documents, images, and smart calendars on the platform.

We are pleased to welcome Gapless as a new investment in our portfolio. Gapless shows how blockchain technology can change services from the ground up – and always thinks from the user’s perspective.
