What MyGarage Global does

MyGarage Global is a privately-held, venture-stage company founded in 2025 that operates a mobile-first social platform for vehicle enthusiasts. Its single product is the MyGarage application, distributed via Apple's App Store (app ID 6741593486) and Google Play (com.mygarageapplication). The app combines a personal digital garage for showcasing vehicles, map-based discovery of nearby car washes, service centers, mechanics and driving routes, license-plate tagging for cross-user content association, brand/model-based clubs, a community forum, events with reservation functionality, and route sharing with photo-spot and food-stop markers. The platform is positioned to serve car enthusiasts — hobbyists and drivers whose interest in vehicles extends beyond utility — with a secondary persona of general vehicle owners seeking a social layer around their cars.

The business model is freemium, anchored on a gamified points system in which every in-app interaction accrues points that unlock special privileges and surprise benefits, with in-app purchases and/or premium features implied as the likely monetization surface (no pricing tiers, price points or revenue figures are publicly disclosed). Distribution is consumer-direct via app store self-serve, supported by an app-store-optimized website (mygarage.global) and a content blog; there is no evidence of sales-led outbound, B2B contracts, or institutional distribution partnerships. The company is operationally based in Istanbul, Turkey, is live in Turkey, and has publicly committed to expansion into the United States, United Arab Emirates and Russia in 2026, with a stated ambition of subsequently serving enthusiasts worldwide.

Corporate information is otherwise sparse: the company reports a 1–10 employee headcount and a single named executive (CEO Demirhan Erim), with no disclosed investors, funding history, ownership structure, board composition, M&A activity, patents, regulatory actions, or third-party partnerships in the available record. The combination of single-market live status, minimal headcount, no disclosed revenue, and an unannounced monetization layer places MyGarage Global at the earliest stage of commercial development despite an ambitious multi-region roadmap.
