Detailed description (English): allygator shuttle is a revolutionary shared and on demand transport service that get our users from A to B by grouping riders who are travelling on similar journeys. We want to reach them where they are and where they need it - this is fast and eco friendly transport on their schedule.
We’re public transport visionaries. We strongly believe it's time to go beyond static routes, stagnant schedules & inefficient transport systems. As the world becomes more urban, it’s increasingly vital to fight traffic congestion, reduce carbon emissions, and connect people sharing the same route. We understand that budget & fiscal & constraints make it often difficult to build innovative public transport systems. That's why we've created something new.
We’ve built a revolutionary technology platform that is changing the way people get around cities. Using 'allygator shuttle', a ride booked on your phone costs little more than the bus. It's on-demand transport on a mass scale; it’s transportation that’s friendly to our planet: shared, affordable & highly efficient.
Target group(s): The main target groups are young people aged 18-35, who are open for new innovations and want to benefit from the many possibilities the current era of digitization offers.
Objectives: During our current testing phase in Berlin, we want to prove that our service runs smoothly and that the customers like the idea and use it. In the mid-term, we don't want to run the service in other cities by ourselves. Rather, we want work together with the cities or transport companies and establish a franchise system. We offer transport companies our concept, and they can run the service by themselves in addition to their already present offers.
Expected Outcomes: After 5 weeks, we have already about 4.500 registered users and reached about 1 Million users on Facebook and about 19.000 on twitter. Also, there were lots of articles in well-known and reliable newspapers about allygator as well as reports on TV and the internet nationwide and sometimes worldwide. In total, we counted a number of 58 articles and videos/reports.
Partner: We are in well-advanced discussions with big automotive companies in Germany concerning a partnership or sponsorship.
