TripShot Launches FlexRide, a New Transportation Solution for Campuses and Communities

FlexRide efficiently pools riders and ensures everyone arrives at their defined destination on time

SAN JOSE, Calif. April 2, 2024 – TripShot, an industry-leading transportation management solution for companies, universities and hospitals, has announced its latest feature, FlexRide

TripShot’s FlexRide is an innovative new transit SaaS solution that automatically creates dynamic routes by factoring in user-requested pickup/drop-off locations and predetermined stops and times. For example, riders can submit a next-day pick-up request at their home, be dropped off at a pre-determined stop and arrive on time for their daily commitments. TripShot aggregates all similar requests, creates a dynamic route and notifies riders of their scheduled pickup time. The reverse can happen for commutes home.

FlexRide supports higher vehicle utilization and lower deadhead times for vehicle fleets. By pooling riders along a dynamic route, operators enjoy more efficient vehicle assignments and optimized scheduling. Adding FlexRide to TripShot can significantly improve rider convenience, allowing them to customize their transportation services to meet their unique needs. Since operations began in the Fall of 2023, an early-adopting customer's average weekly growth rate for completed trips has been 17%. 93% of these trips received a 5-star rating from riders.

“FlexRide is a win-win for administrators, drivers and riders. It's a revolutionary transit innovation seamlessly tailored to cater to today's diverse commuters and passengers. Early adopters of FlexRide have found it operationally scalable and responsive while enhancing the rider experience, attracting new riders and ultimately helping employees to arrive ready for a productive day." said Patrick Le, Co-Founder and General Manager at TripShot.

This new feature results from the company’s strong emphasis on innovation and focus on changing client needs. Initially built for corporate campuses of some of the world's largest technology companies, TripShot now offers FlexRide as another mode of transportation for future-oriented corporations, universities, medical facilities, and other campuses. 

“FlexRide is a paradigm-shifting transit innovation simultaneously prioritizing operational efficiency and rider convenience, ushering in a new era of forward-looking transit options," added Rob Antoniak, Chief Customer Officer. "This game-changing innovation is a testament to our grit and determination to fulfill our mission to simply and efficiently solve transportation’s most pressing problems while redefining mobility for all."
