A community-driven, parent-trusted solution, POOL'R is the smarter way to carpool.
The Problem
Parents worry about the safety of their children when they are walking by themselves to school or other events. Single parent households and households in which both parents work are more common than they used to be, so a lot of parents simply don't have the time to drive their kids.
Our Solution
Pool’r is an app that assists with the creation and maintaining of organized carpools, focused on kids. Parents take turns driving based on their availability, ensuring that no child will have to walk in a potentially dangerous environment.
Navigation
When it is your turn to drive, the app lets you know and generates your route for you. As you drive it gives you directions, and prompts you to acknowledge when you’ve picked someone up or dropped them off.
Tracking
Parents whose children are being driven can use the app to receive notifications when their child is picked up, dropped off, and can track the car their child is in while the drive is in progress.
Notifications
Get notified before you need to leave or before your child will be picked up. Never be late again.
