We found the need in our society to create a ride-share app that aims to reach as many people possible. At The 99 we strive to do the right thing for the most people. Our goal for this VP1 was to create a rideshare app that will enhance the overall rider and driver experience for all people in need of ride share services. The 99 aims to serve 99% of people – the perfect driver/rider match isn’t always going to exist, but we aim to be as close as possible. Attempts to match riders and drivers with all of ther preferences and will present the best matches as options to choose from. Click here to access our Google Drive.
