Find carpooling partners, reduce transportation costs and carbon footprint, with Scoop Commute - the app that connects commuters headed in the same direction.
Scoop commute is a carpooling mobile app that aims to reduce single-occupancy car trips by connecting commuters traveling in the same direction so they can share rides. It uses GPS technology to match riders and drivers based on their routes and schedules.
The app allows drivers to register their regular routes and set the number of seats available in their car. Meanwhile, riders can enter their commuting route and times so the app can find potential carpool matches along their way. Users create profiles and can view basic information about potential carpoolers to decide if they want to share a ride.
Key features of Scoop commute include in-app messaging to coordinate ride details, profile verification for safety and trust, and feedback systems for rating drivers and riders. It has options for one-off shared rides, but mainly focuses on recurring daily commute trips for those traveling to/from work or school.
Unlike casual carpooling options, Scoop is designed specifically with longer commutes in mind - optimized for rides at least 15-30 minutes where the cost and environmental savings become more substantial. The app is free, taking a small cut of the suggested fare to cover costs.
