  • PiggyBack Network: Family Carpool Experience

    Ep #090 - PiggyBack is what the family carpooling experience should be: safe, easy, reliable and flexible.

    On this episode we are joined by the Founders of the Piggyback Network, Ismael El-Amin and Donald Scott II. PiggyBack is what carpooling should be: a safer and more flexible social transportation system for families, where the drivers are your fellow reliable parents. More than a simple scheduling app, they use artificial intelligence to coordinate driving routes, and parents can use the system as little or much as they like. PiggyBack creates family support networks and new friendships using a gamified points-based system for members who seek to get a ride, give a ride, or both. Learn more at piggybacknetwork.com.
