RIDECO: Fleet operators and public transit agencies around the world use RideCo’s cloud based ‘dynamic shuttle’ software platform to provide on-demand shared rides in dynamically routed buses, vans, and cars. Our solution works in real-time at large scale across a mixed fleet of vehicles from buses to sedans in both high- and low-density urban environments. We build technology for next-generation transit. Imagine a world where vehicles have dynamic routes responsive to real-time trip demand. This ‘dynamic shuttle’ (or van /sedan) would pick you up, on-demand, at or near your doorstep and take you to your destination or transit hub. Along the way, it may pick-up other passengers going your way. Your experience will be seamless: less waiting, less walking, fewer transfers, and shorter travel time. RideCo enables this experience and low-cost shared rides for vehicle fleet operators and their passengers. [http://www.rideco.com]
