Making waiting for the bus a little less lonely

Bus shelter with floating notes

The problem

We've all waited for a bus at some point in our lives, and whether you're waiting by yourself for five minutes or 25, it can get a bit lonely.

The solution

We're using transportation to connect people to people rather than people to places, turning the physical bus shelter into a virtual hub of communication. Read about how your fellow commuters are feeling and leave a note of your own in augmented reality.

We believe that giving commuters a platform to talk to each other will help us realize that we're all still part of a larger community, even when we feel alone.
