RideShare: Taking On Uber
About this event
Everyone says you can't compete with the giants in ride-share. Let's test that properly, with a working product on the screen.
RideShare is built around rides on your schedule. You choose a destination, compare ride options and see an estimate before you book, or schedule a pickup for later. Drivers get their own view of nearby trip requests and reservations.
It's early, and that's the point. This is a working product at the hardest stage: before it has the riders and drivers a marketplace needs. So what would you do next?
We'll dig into:
• Is there a niche where a smaller player wins: one suburb, one campus, one event?
• Which comes first, the drivers or the riders?
• What do safety, insurance and transport rules mean for a new entrant?
• How much of a ride-share product can a very small team build with AI?
How the hour runs:
• 4:30 sharp: the idea and the riskiest assumptions
• 4:40: live walkthrough as a rider and as a driver
• 4:55: you try it and tear it apart
• 5:15: your launch plan, and how to apply it to your own idea
Bring your sharpest objections. No technical background needed. Bring a laptop or phone.
