We built Shared because
empty seats are a waste.
India's roads are full of cars carrying one person. Bikes with one helmet on the back. Buses idling between routes. Shared turns those empty seats into something useful — for the driver's wallet, the passenger's commute, and the air everyone breathes.
The idea
You're driving across town. Somewhere along that route, two other people are heading the same way. None of them know about each other. They each spin up their own taxi or sit in their own car.
Shared is the app that introduces them. The driver lists their trip with a few taps. Passengers search by their real pickup — including towns mid-route — and book a seat. Everyone splits the cost. The driver makes some money on a journey they were taking anyway. The passenger pays less than a private cab.
What we care about
- ✓ Transparency. No surge, no commission tricks.
- ✓ Real-time. Live tracking, instant popups, 30-second decisions.
- ✓ Accountability. OTP-verified phones, ratings, KYC.
- ✓ Inclusivity. Cars, bikes, autos, SUVs, buses — all welcome.
Built in the open.
A small team of engineers and drivers who wanted a cleaner alternative to the taxi-aggregator model.
India-first
Routes, vehicle types, fare expectations, language patterns — all tuned for Indian roads first.
Iterating publicly
Every feature on this site exists because a real driver or passenger asked for it. We listen, we ship.
Community-owned
Our long-term goal: a cooperative ride-share where drivers keep what they earn.
