Nima Tahami is the Founder of ShiftRide, an app that allows people to rent out cars from other people in the area, by the hour or by the day. He's worked on a few startups in the past while in school but decided to pursue ShiftRide full time out of having a personal need for the solution. Nima's background is in tech and UI/UX design and he's developed a number of games and apps on the app store generating tens of thousands of downloads before starting ShiftRide.

ShiftRide is an on-demand mobility platform, allowing people to get access to cars nearby. Users can book a car owned by others in their community, whether they need to grab food, run an errand, or go out with friends. Car owners in the community list their car on ShiftRide to earn money and begin sharing when they're not using their car.

Users simply sign up with their driver's license, get verified, and pick a car that suits their needs. Users get charged based on how much they used the car, once they're done with their booking. ShiftRide provides insurance, gas, and 24/7 support to ensure that you can safely and easily drive throughout your booking.

ShiftRide is currently operational in Kitchener-Waterloo area.
