Yolbee

Launching in Ankara. Coming soon to iOS and Android.

If there's a road, don't drive it empty.No membership. No commission. No pointless requests.Don't match with the nearest person. Match with the right one.

Yolbee is a fair ride network that connects people heading the same way because their routes truly cross. The seat beside you, or the ride you need, is already on the road you're taking.

This is not a taxi app.

The city is already full of trips that are happening or about to happen. Yolbee matches them in a smarter, safer and fairer way.

  • Elif, from ÇayyoluMeet in 4 min, 92% fit
  • Kaan, from ÜmitköyMeet in 6 min, 88% fit
  • Zeynep, from KonutkentPlanned, 08:40

We don't say “drive over there, maybe someone's waiting.”

Instead of the whole city's hot zones, Yolbee shows the opportunities along your own route.

The map you know

The whole city lit up with hot zones. None of them care where you're going.

7 good matches on your route

Sample calculation

You get 25 seconds to decide. And you see everything.

When a match request arrives, direction, time, detour and contribution are in front of you at a glance. Not responding is never a penalty.

Requests go out in waves, not one by one.

The 2 best-fitting route owners see it first. If nobody takes it, the next fitting owners do. The ride buddy doesn't wait in vain and the route owner isn't rushed.

Signals behind the match score

  • Pickup time
  • Route fit
  • Max detour
  • Trip direction
  • Vehicle capacity
  • Route owner reliability
  • Ride buddy reliability
  • Cancellation rates
  • Your preferences

The score starts out deterministic. Weights are tuned openly as real usage data comes in.

You see the contribution before you match. So does the route owner.

The contribution isn't just kilometres. Distance, time, pickup cost, vehicle class and rush hour each get their own line.

You can offer within a band around the suggested contribution. Once the route owner accepts, it locks.

Trust, transparency, and real route overlap.

Yolbee is not a taxi or dispatch service. We match people whose routes truly cross. QR+PIN, two-way ratings, verification and moderation reduce risk — they do not eliminate it.

  • QR + PIN verification

    Mutual trip verification helps confirm the right person and vehicle.

  • Two-way ratings

    Route Owners and Ride Buddies rate each other; rating abuse is forbidden.

  • Account & vehicle checks

    Document and vehicle review adds a trust layer; it does not erase every risk.

  • Live trip location

    Location may be shared in relevant trip states for operations and safety — not continuous background tracking.

  • Transparent route fit

    Matching is based on genuine route overlap — not whoever is nearest.

  • Transparent contribution

    Contributions are peer-to-peer via cash or IBAN. Yolbee does not hold a wallet or custody funds.

Right car, right person

As the route owner approaches, a single-use QR code is created for this ride. Scan it and you're verified. If the camera won't open, a 4-digit PIN does the job.

Safety & moderation

  • Emergency signal
  • One-tap call to 112
  • Share your trip with someone you trust
  • Vehicle and verified person details
  • Report an incident / admin review

Ratings go both ways

Ride buddies are rated too, not just route owners. Ratings stay hidden until both sides have rated or the window closes.

Route Owner

  • On time
  • Safe driving
  • Communication
  • Clean car
  • Cancellation reliability

Ride Buddy

  • Ready on time
  • Last-minute cancellations
  • Communication
  • Payment disputes

“The car was messy” and “dangerous driving” don't weigh the same.

  • Can't find the spot

Real documents, real cars

ID, licence, registration and plate are checked. Documents are kept in encrypted, private storage, and every staff view is logged. Verification does not eliminate all risk.

No restrictions without a reason.

Route owners can see what's happening on their account. If there's a restriction, the reason, duration, related incident and appeal path are spelled out.

With every restriction you see:

  • Why you were restricted
  • How long it lasts
  • Which incident it relates to
  • Your right to appeal and send evidence
  • Where the review stands

Every vehicle class gets its own rate; our team makes the final call.

Questions

Is Yolbee a taxi app?

No. Yolbee matches people who are already heading the same way. The route owner makes their own trip; the ride buddy joins and contributes to the cost.

Do you take a commission?

At launch the platform fee is 0 TL. What the ride buddy pays is exactly what the route owner receives.

How is the trip contribution set?

Distance and time are calculated together; pickup cost, vehicle class and any rush-hour effect each get their own line. You can make an offer within a narrow band around the suggested contribution.

How do you keep people safe?

No platform can guarantee safety. We provide tools that make rides safer for both sides: document verification, QR and PIN vehicle checks, two-way ratings, a Safety Center and fast access to 112.

What do I need to become a route owner?

ID, driving licence, registration and vehicle details. You can follow every step of your application in the app and message the review team.

Is my location shared all the time?

No. Your location is only used during an active match. Favouriting someone doesn't give them access to your location.

When do you launch?

First in Ankara, along busy campus and tech-park corridors. Founding members get the first invites.

Become a founding member.

We'll open the first corridors based on founding members' routes. It takes two minutes.
