About Rally

Rally is a Mobility as a Service (MaaS) technology company. The company has mobilized millions of individual riders by creating bus trips that address surge demand and intercity transportation challenges. Rally’s software empowers consumers, using crowdfunding to aggregate riders traveling between cities and to special events locations like sports arenas and rock concerts. The trips are then fulfilled by Rally’s network of thousands of small bus operator businesses that typically own around 10 buses each on average. Rally’s marketplace model identifies the availability of bus operators and matches the demand to their supply of bus fleets that are typically operating at only 50% capacity. By doing so, Rally unlocks the value of the industry’s global capacity. Rally operates in the capacity of an intermediary within the private bus operator industry, and it does not own or operate any buses and employs no drivers.
