Work & culture

Mission- and impact-oriented culture centered on transforming cities, fair driver economics, safety, and local-market mobility. Public materials repeatedly emphasize social impact, driver fairness, small-city focus, and expansion into a broader super-app.

Compensation

No public employee salary bands were found. Public compensation signals are strongest on the driver side: drivers retain 100% of fares, pay no commission, and access the platform through a monthly subscription. Public app-store materials also mention rewards, discounts, and VIP support tiers for riders.
