Commuting can be fun.

Share the ride with someone going your way — a colleague from your community you’ve never met, or a neighbor who happens to love the same weekend hobby. Instead of the same playlist on repeat, talk about the thing you just started learning.

Why Kommutr

Trust first. Then a match that fits your route. Then a booking that stays simple.

Easy

Book ahead in three steps — request, match, ride. Sit back; we take care of the rest.

Easy three-step booking

Whether you’re a rider or a driver, booking a ride is simple — and done in advance, not on the curb.

  1. Book ahead

    Request

    Schedule as a driver or rider — morning for an evening commute, or the night before for the AM ride. Sit back; we take care of matching.

  2. Verified users

    Match

    Get matched with a commuter going your way. Every match is with a verified, background-checked user — so you know who you’re riding with before you go.

  3. Shared ride

    Ride

    Enjoy your ride. Riders get a lower price; drivers get reimbursed for their expenses.

Peace of mind

Trust markers that matter before you share a commute — coverage details and verification you can point to.

We use Checkr for identity and background screening. Users complete ID verification so the person on the trip matches their government ID — not just a name on a profile.

  • Government ID verification (confirm the person is the user)
  • Criminal background check
  • Sex offender registry search
