bynd is the app to share rides to work – connect with colleagues easily, quickly and securely

Bynd is an efficient urban mobility solution, which provides a better daily commuting experience for people and corporations through carpooling. The mobile and web apps connect employees with similar routes so they can share their rides. Our proprietary algorithm is able to calculate all possible routes in a blink of an eye, regardless of the size of the database. Bynd is focused on the corporate market, which provides a safe framework to the carpooling experience. Bynd is improving employees’ quality of life by optimising their daily commutes and expanding their personal networks within the company – while at the same time reducing carbon emissions and overall transportation cost.

c) Cars take overthe streets, are inefficiently used, and pollute the city:
