Why drivers go where the riders are, and what it costs to fight that
New to this industry?Start with its one-minute summary: Software and SaaS
The prompt
Illustrative numbers, fictional apps. In a city in Singapore, drivers on the larger ride app, App B, carry a passenger for 45 minutes of each hour online, because riders are everywhere. Drivers on the smaller App A carry a passenger for only 30 minutes of each hour. On both apps a driver keeps SGD 0.80 for each minute with a passenger. How much more does a driver earn per hour on App B, and what would App A have to spend in bonuses to match it for 2,000 drivers working 40 hours a week?
