Overview
APRide is a campus carpool board built for APU students. Post or find rides in seconds and split the commute cost — a small, focused app that removes a real everyday friction on campus.
Who it’s for
APU students (and campus communities) who want a fast, no-fuss way to share rides and cut commuting costs.
What it does
- A carpool board built for the APU campus
- Post and find rides in seconds
- Split costs and save the commute
How it works
-
Verified by campus email
Access is gated to APU email domains, so everyone on the board is someone you could run into on campus. That single constraint is what replaces a ratings system.
-
Fixed-location matching
Users create or join ride matches at fixed locations rather than arbitrary pickup points, which keeps the matching problem small enough to stay reliable.
-
Hand off to Teams
Coordination happens in Microsoft Teams, where students already are. APRide is deliberately not a ride-hailing, payments, driver, map, advertising or chat platform — it is the matching board and nothing else.
Built with
