ride-sharing platforms

Ride-sharing platforms are digital services that connect passengers with drivers using a smartphone app. Users can request a ride, see nearby drivers, and pay electronically, often splitting costs with other passengers going in the same direction. These services offer a convenient alternative to taxis, providing transparent pricing and driver ratings. They leverage technology to efficiently match supply and demand, making transportation more accessible and flexible. Popular examples include Uber and Lyft, which operate in many cities worldwide, disrupting traditional taxi services and providing a more personalized, on-demand travel experience.
