Launched Driver AI in the driver app: a voice-first assistant for navigation and in-trip tasks so drivers stay hands-free and focused on the road, with snappier interactions, a smoother earning experience, and fewer interruptions that pull drivers out of the driving flow. Shipped an internal AI tool (LangGraph) so mobile engineers self-serve review-ready microservices and backends, tightening review cycles and how quickly the team ships. Rebuilt the rider and driver map experience on an in-house static engine that preserved visual parity with the prior maps experience while reducing third-party maps API spend.
