Mobie

Its goal is to make local transport more accessible, connected and sustainable by helping people share journeys and bring communities together. The platform offers dedicated spaces for local groups, events and initiatives, making it useful for more than arranging a ride. Designed to be inclusive and accessible across age groups, mobie can also be used offline. It is intended to work flexibly alongside existing transport options, including public transit, demand-responsive buses, car-sharing services and taxis.

For passengers and communities, sharing rides can help reduce emissions, lower fuel costs and encourage social connections. mobie also works with municipalities and businesses, offering a way to support local mobility needs and strengthen connections in rural areas. The team says its approach is informed by personal experience of rural transport challenges. Based in Vienna, mobie presents mobility as more than getting from place to place: it can foster community, create new opportunities and make rural regions more vibrant.
