Investor overview
Help launch the long-distance rideshare grid.
QUESTeRIDE is a founder-led, pre-launch long-distance rideshare marketplace. The platform is built and live — booking, payments, driver payouts, background-check onboarding, and a 220-city relay grid are in place. We are raising to fund the final mile: state operating approvals, insurance, and launch advertising.
The opportunity
10%
Equity stake offered for a $1,000,000 investment (implying a $10M valuation). Final structure — priced equity or a SAFE/convertible instrument — to be set in definitive legal documents with counsel.
$1M
Target raise to take the platform from pre-launch to operating: regulatory approvals, insurance coverage, and customer acquisition.
10%
Planned platform fee per booked seat (5% rider, 5% driver), with drivers receiving 95% of the seat price via automatic payout after trip completion.
Use of funds
State operating approvals
Registration, permits, and compliance costs required to operate a rideshare marketplace across U.S. states.
Insurance program
Exploring and placing appropriate commercial/liability coverage before paid trips begin, so riders and drivers are properly protected.
Launch advertising
Paid and organic campaigns focused first on Huntsville-area routes and nearby college towns, then regional expansion.
Product & operations
Continued development of the relay grid, trip updates, safety tooling, and support operations.

Honest status & risks
QUESTeRIDE is pre-launch: the platform is live and open for sign-ups, and no completed trips or revenue exist yet. Early-stage investing carries substantial risk, including the possible loss of the entire investment. Regulatory approval timelines, insurance costs, and market adoption are all uncertain.
