Introducing Waypooling: The Future of Carpooling

Over the last 100 years, carpooling has evolved from a purely practical solution for road congestion and resource scarcity to a cornerstone of sustainable urban planning.

Long before ridesharing apps became mainstream, carpooling was a well-established concept all around the world. The idea of sharing a journey with multiple passengers, reducing the need for individual vehicles, has been an effective solution to growing road traffic, population surge, and infrastructural demands for decades

What is carpooling?

Carpooling, in its simplest form, is the idea of two or more people sharing a vehicle to get from A to B, in the process removing the need for another vehicle to do the same journey.

Although carpooling has been an informal staple in many communities, as friends, families & colleagues have shared journeys for as long as cars have been on the road. Any attempt to formalise the process of carpooling has had its fair share of challenges, from rigid schedules to limited adaptability.

Different types of carpooling

As the need for efficient and sustainable commuting continues to grow, various carpooling models have emerged to cater to diverse requirements. The two main types are open-network carpooling and closed-network carpooling, each with its unique advantages.

Open network carpooling

This model is based on an open network where users can potentially match with any other user for shared rides. The benefits of open-network carpooling include:

  • Wide Pool of Potential Matches: Since there are no restrictions on who can join the pool, the possibilities for matches increase, making it easier to find a match at any given time.
  • Flexibility: As there are more users in the pool, the chances of finding a ride that matches your schedule are higher.

Closed network carpooling

In contrast, closed network carpooling has a defined group of users, often employees of a particular organization or students at a certain institution. The benefits of closed-network carpooling include:

  • Safety: Since all users are part of the same organization or institution, there’s a sense of safety and security. There’s less risk involved when you’re sharing a ride with colleagues or peers.
  • Certainty: Users can have certainty in their matches, which is crucial for regular commuting to workplaces or schools.
  • Trust: Being in a closed network with familiar faces fosters a sense of community and trust, which is essential for a seamless carpooling experience.

Our latest carpooling feature, Waypooling, operates on a closed network carpooling system, offering organizations a safer option.

Companies can rely on Waypooling to provide their employees with efficient and sustainable commuting options, enhancing employee satisfaction and contributing to their corporate social responsibility efforts.
