About Hovr

The mission is simple: help North America carpool by providing the best app ever created for real ride sharing.

Reduce carbon emissions

Carpooling is the #1 way people living in North America can reduce their carbon footprint.

Make travel more accessible

For people who don’t like to fly, can’t drive, or can’t afford to fly – long-distance carpooling provides an extremely valuable service.

Reduce traffic

Wide carpooling adoption has a direct and noticeable correlation to traffic reduction.

Make friends & positive social experiences

A study by BlaBlaCar, the leading carpool app in Europe, proved that carpooling has a healthy social impact for participants.

Be the change. We can’t do it without you.

If you’re reading this – you’re extremely early to the revolution, and that makes you a critical part of it. Find out how you can help North America adopt carpooling as a way of life.

An avid traveler, Breezy’s mission in life is to make travel more sustainable and green. She built Hovr after returning from multiple trips backpacking Europe, frustrated that no safe carpooling apps existed here. She’s helped 2 startups (Qase and Replicated) successfully grow through 3 fundraising rounds and massive ARR growth as head of marketing.

SOME INSIGHTS

Our Mission & Vision

Safety

Safety is at the core of our mission. The US won’t adopt carpooling unless it’s safe, and we utilize not only every feature to insure safety, from driver verifications to reviews — but the model itself is far safer than taxis and Ubers, where a completely random driver is sent to you, where you are penalized if you decline the ride. With Hovr, you and the driver must approve one another, both vetting each other through a profile and verified info, much like Airbnb.

Accountability

We know ride’s doing match if we don’t do our job of promoting the app and strengthening early adoption communities, insuring safety, supporting our power users and partnering with local government and events to make carpooling available for everyone, everywhere.

European values

In Europe, there is no stigma for carpooling. It is accepted as the best method for increasing your sustainability if you drive, lowering your carbon footprint, being a helpful and active member of your community, making new friends, and increasing mobility for people whose main mode of transportation is walking, biking or public transit to places unreachable by these options. We hope to bring these values to North America.

Social impact

Our inspiration, BlaBlaCar, a European carpooling app, released a social impact report in 2022 that is everything we hope to accomplish in North America. Read it here.
