Looks great!
Danny Bin
@tommydangerouss Thank you :)
Arlo Gilbert
Gave it a try. Feels very bay area focused.
Danny Bin
@arlogilbert You are right Arlo. Our current focus is in the bay area and Vancouver. We believe we can deliver the most value to our users if we can achieve a complete saturation of the local markets. So our current priority is to serve one market well, rather than expand our coverage, but we do expect to expand our footprints to other markets later in the year. :)

I like this idea.. I can see it being very useful in local communities for sure.
Danny Bin
@zacherynielson Thank you for your vote of confidence!
Vikash Rungta

Danny Bin
@vrungta Thank you :)

How are you growing the product, I imagine a lot of grassroots marketing? What has been most effective so far?
Danny Bin
@allany888 Yep! We are working closely with local schools, tutoring center, sponsoring local events, PTAs and much more. :)

Have you guys talked to the Nextdoor app folks yet? When can we expect Nextdoor Neighbor to be released that combines the best of both? 😊
Danny Bin
@vincentorleck Not yet, but we do see ourselves as a complimentary to Nextdoor, creating meaningful offline relationships in the communities we live and love :)

There's another Zum Rides that operates in the same space. Wish you well
Danny Bin
@sripathi_ramadurai Yep! There are quite great companies in the same space, Zum, Tango, HopSkipDrive, Waze and etc. However, most of them are in the Taxi as a service space similar to Uber and Lyft. Our goal is to create a true social network where parents can help each other and learn from each other, to create a better future for our children. So our app is free and carpool is non-transactional, we want to connect parents from local neighborhood who share similar schedules to share driving duties. :)

@brendanbeirne Thank you for the vote of confidence!

Looks good but the video with the dog and the girl who doesn't want to play with him because she didn't carpool home was a bit much.

Seems like a great product for team parents (ex. Soccer moms) to organize rides and whatnot. Good idea!
Danny Bin
