- RYDE is ISO 27001 certified, GDPR-compliant, and supports customer-configurable data retention, region pinning, and PII minimization. We sign standard DPAs and BAAs on request. Your security team can review our compliance documentation during the evaluation process.
- Ryde's Policy Engine lets you define 20+ parameters that govern how routes are built and rides are assigned. You control maximum time in vehicle, maximum walking distance to pickup, shift-based routing rules, site-specific policies, vehicle-type preferences, and driver assignment logic. Each site in a multi-site deployment can run its own policy set. Policies update in real time - no engineering involvement required.
- Fixed shuttles run pre-scheduled routes independent of demand. Dynamic shuttles adjust routes, vehicle sizes, and stops based on real-time demand. Most RYDE customers use a hybrid model: fixed core routes for peak shifts, with a dynamic layer for off-peak and last-mile coverage. The platform handles both in a single dashboard.
- Yes. RYDE is deployed at single-site and multi-site organizations. Each site can have its own dispatch policy, driver network, and reporting while rolling up into a unified management dashboard. Multi-site rollouts are typically staggered: one pilot site first, then expansion in 2-week increments.
- The dynamic routing engine recalculates assignments every 60-120 seconds. If a driver becomes unavailable or riders cancel, the system automatically reassigns remaining riders and updates ETAs via the passenger app. Dispatchers can also override assignments manually from the operations console when needed.
- Yes. Ryde for Sports is a dedicated configuration for tournaments, conferences, and mega-events. It handles multi-venue routing, airport arrivals at scale, and provides an organizer dashboard for real-time oversight. Event-specific deployments can be stood up in under two weeks.
