Seat Sherpa: Carpool Rides

Seat Sherpa

About this app

Seat Sherpa is the easiest way to carpool long distance across California and Nevada. Heading from the Bay Area to Los Angeles? LA to Las Vegas? San Francisco to San Diego? Find a driver already making the drive, grab an open seat, and split the cost of gas.

It's carpooling, reimagined — friendlier than the bus, cheaper than the train or flying, and greener than driving alone.

🚗 HOW IT WORKS
• Search your route — SF to LA, LA to Vegas, Sacramento, San Diego, Napa, and everywhere in between
• Book a seat instantly, or request one and the driver accepts
• Your card is only charged when your seat is confirmed
• Meet up, share the ride, split the gas

💰 REAL COST-SHARING, NOT RIDE-HAILING
Seat Sherpa is a true carpool marketplace. Drivers are already making the trip and can only charge enough to cover their real driving costs — never a profit. No surge pricing, no commercial markup. A rideshare seat from the Bay Area to LA often costs less than a bus ticket.

🛡️ BUILT FOR TRUST
• Every account is phone-verified
• Drivers upload a license and verify their identity
• Two-way ratings after every trip
• Secure payments through Stripe — money is only released to the driver after your trip starts
• In-app chat and calling, so you never share your number ahead of time

🌿 GOOD FOR YOUR WALLET, GOOD FOR THE ROAD
Every shared seat means one less car making the same long drive. Track the CO₂ and money you save with every carpool.

📍 WHERE WE ARE
Live across California and Nevada: San Francisco Bay Area, Los Angeles, San Diego, Orange County, Sacramento, Las Vegas, Palm Springs, Napa/Sonoma — and everywhere in between.

Whether you're a student heading home for the weekend, a commuter tired of driving solo, or a road-tripper with empty seats — Seat Sherpa turns long drives into shared rides.

Gas is expensive. Share the cost. Download Seat Sherpa and find your ride today.
