Pave Commute
Empowering every employee to choose a better commute
How does it work?
Pave Commute is a simple, science-based commuter app and employee benefit that improves the commute experience while helping employees make more sustainable choices.
Based on employees’ needs and preferences the app provides tailored commute recommendations, encouragement, and social support. Employers can show employees that their efforts are valued and make employee commutes another meaningful part of their corporate sustainability strategy.
Pave Commute applies behavioural psychology, AI and engaging design to optimise employee commuting in order to reduce parking demand, traffic and CO2.
Why is it needed?
According to USA Today, the human side effects and environmental impacts of traffic include delays, stress, road rage as well as fuel consumption and pollution.
People have unique lives, and their needs may change day to day. Their commute should too. Personalised support from Pave Commute helps them find balance, making it simple to make smart choices that match their schedule and personality.
