Getaround

Getaround, Inc. engages in the provision of car rental services. The company is headquartered in San Francisco, California and currently employs 290 full-time employees. The company went IPO on 2021-03-05. The firm makes sharing cars and trucks simple through its cloud and in-car Connect technology. Its technology enables a contactless experience, no waiting in line at a car rental facility, manually completing paperwork or meeting anyone to collect or drop off car keys. Its Getaround Connect Cloud Platform creates a digital experience that enables guests to find cars nearby, and for hosts to share their cars with guests, in both high and low population-density geographies. Connected cars on its network are installed with either its Getaround Connect electronic Internet of Things (IoT) device or with a third-party after-market IoT device compatible with its network. Its digital carsharing marketplace derives demand from guests who want access to cars nearby 24/7 for a variety of use cases, such as local and long-distance getaways, running errands, business travel and driving to earn through rideshare and delivery platforms.
