About Us

We're Building theFair Ride-SharingAmerica Deserves

Tired of surge pricing? Frustrated drivers? Hidden fees? So were we. That's why we created Nexus Rides — the first US ride-sharing app where riders and drivers negotiate fares transparently, safely, and fairly.

Our Mission & Vision

Our Mission

To make everyday mobility more affordable, transparent, and human — by letting riders and drivers agree on fair prices within safe, smart boundaries.

Our Vision

A future where ride-sharing platforms are accountable to both sides of the marketplace — with transparent pricing, simple negotiation, and safety that's never compromised.

Founders and early Nexus team working on the app

How It Started

Nexus Rides was born from a simple frustration: riders getting hit with 3x surge prices while drivers made pennies on long trips. Both sides wanted more control — but no one was listening.

So we built the app we wished existed: one that treats riders and drivers as partners, not just data points.

Core Values

What We Stand For

Safety Is Non-Negotiable

Every driver is background-checked, insured, and continuously monitored. In-app SOS, live trip sharing, and 24/7 support are standard.

Transparency Over Algorithms

No black-box surge pricing. Fare ranges are calculated fairly and shown upfront. You negotiate — not an AI behind closed doors.

Empowering Both Sides

Riders save up to 25% vs surge pricing. Drivers keep more per trip and choose rides that respect their time and effort.
