The Dutch commute, reimagined

Turn your train trip into a Ride.

A matched, in-transit meeting with someone going your way — to practise a language, swap skills, or just talk. The system matches you. No browsing strangers.

What makes it different

Two deliberate ideas

Both exist for the same reason: to make connecting with a stranger feel safe — for everyone, women especially.

The system matches you

You never scroll a directory of strangers. You state an intent and a specific trip; the matching engine returns ranked candidates. No swiping, no looks-based judging, no choice overload.

Hidden until 60 minutes before

Candidate cards show rating, gender, age range, bio and skills — but no name or photo. Identities unlock only 60 minutes before departure, right before a public meeting at the station.

How a Ride works

From anonymous request to a real meeting

The whole product is one simple loop, tied to a real trip every time.

1

Post a request

Say what you want and the trip you're taking — date, time, origin → destination.

2

The system matches

It returns anonymous candidate cards: rating, gender, age range, bio, skills.

3

Send & accept

Pick by reputation, send one request per trip. They accept — the Ride is set.

4

Plan, anonymously

Chat in-app to agree where to meet and what to focus on — still no names.

5

Reveal at T-60

Sixty minutes before departure, names and photos unlock so you can find each other.

6

Meet, travel & rate

Meet on the platform, have your Ride, then rate each other — that powers future matches.

Trust & safety

Safety isn't bolted on — it's the design

Progressive anonymity

Your identity is never exposed to people who don't show up. It unlocks only just before a public meeting.

Reputation, not looks

You commit on a rating and substance. Every Ride is rated afterwards; 3 poor ratings or 2 no-shows ban an account.

Planned, never spontaneous

Every Ride is arranged in advance and mutually agreed. Nobody is ever approached on a quiet carriage.
