App that makes rideshare drivers more money

What is your company going to make? Please describe your product and what it does or will do.

We built an app that lets rideshare drivers run multiple platforms - Uber, Lyft, and others - at the same time. It uses automation to auto-accept only the trips drivers want, helping them increase earnings by up to 30%.

Where do you live now, and where would the company be based after YC?

We live and work in San Francisco. The company is based here in SF and will remain so after YC.

Explain your decision regarding location.

San Francisco is where our drivers are and where we can iterate quickly on driver needs. It's also the ridesharing hub, so it makes sense to be here.
