I have been wanting to help people who have been kicked off gig apps for no good reason. So, I decided to make an alternative for doordash, uber eats, etc. It is a last resort for people who need to find people to deliver for.

So, what are your thoughts on this option?

Whats the incentive for a user of uber. Intentionally seeking out people deemed bad to handle my food. Why?

Whats the incentive for a user of uber.

Price. Value. The goal is to attract drivers to deliver food +. Once we get a market, then people will get more value all around.

Intentionally seeking out people deemed bad to handle my food. Why?

There is no one deemed "bad" that is being sought. There are several instances of people getting deactivated for various reasons. Some include sharing too many sign up referral links will get drivers deactivated.

Also, we have a driver that livestreams his deliveries, which is something pretty cool. Go and check out "drivers", he is out of New Jersey.

Feel free to ask any other questions.

You simply cant compete with the big players by using processes that are 15 years old. Deliveries are going to be slower, user experience is much worse and even if you can beat their pricing it's going to nerd to be a huge saving to warrant the switch.
