Business Outlook

Carpooling marketplace business

The Company believes that carpooling in China is still at its early stage of development. It plans to grow its business by constantly refining its platform and services. The Company has been applying AI to optimize the order matching between its riders and private car owners, improving its route planning and navigation capabilities. It will continue to ensure the safety of its riders and private car owners by implementing a series of real-time security features. It has also been using AI to improve the efficiency of customer services and enhance its user experience.

Instead of treating a local market as a homogeneous whole, the Company can now operate at a higher level of granularity. It can group routes with similar origins and destinations and balance supply and demand at a more granular level through dynamic pricing and appropriate incentives.

In addition, the Company has been working with strategic partners to gain further growth. For example, it has entered into a cooperation agreement with DingTalk, a leading enterprise SaaS platform, to jointly create a carpooling service for the large population of office workers. Such service can offer them a greener and lower-cost alternative for daily commuting. It has also entered into respective strategic cooperation agreements with Baidu Maps, a leading mapping service provider, to jointly explore carpooling and taxi services in a wide range of scenarios. It believes there is potentially a huge market for carpooling that is yet to be fully unleashed and the benefits of carpooling are yet to be fully recognized by the public.

Taxi business

In selected cities where the Company has already entered into strategic cooperation agreements, it will closely work with all relevant stakeholders, including local authorities, taxi industry associations, taxi companies, and taxi drivers to implement its strategy for smart taxi services.
