Scoop Technologies operates an enterprise carpooling platform that matches employees commuting to and from work and positions itself as the largest enterprise carpooling solution in the country. It partners with more than 55 employers, including LinkedIn, Workday, and T-Mobile, to subsidize rides and reduce commute impacts. Since launching in 2015, Scoop has expanded into over 2,000 cities and recently launched in Detroit in partnership with Bedrock. Riders pay an average of $3–$5 per trip, most of which goes to drivers; the company derives the majority of its revenue from the businesses that subsidize rides. Scoop emphasizes it is not a traditional Transportation Network Carrier and does not hire drivers, and it requires drivers to have valid personal insurance. The company plans to expand rapidly to other major metro areas impacted by rising congestion and rising drive-alone rates. Scoop Technologies operates a mobile carpooling app that partners with employers of any size to enable scheduled commutes for employees. Commuters download Scoop on iOS or Android and enter their normal route to and from work to find carpools. The service is available in the San Francisco Bay Area and Seattle and has more than 100,000 carpoolers on the platform. The company says it will use the new funding to expand into new cities around the country. Scoop was co-founded in 2015 by Jon Sadow (Chief Product Officer) and Rob Sadow (CEO) and is based in San Francisco, California. The recent financings increased the company’s total financing to date.
