Meet Maggie & Trisha, rising seniors at Brown, and co-founders of Pointz. Pointz is a mobile mapping app that acts like a safety focused "Waze," designed for bike and scooter riders. Maggie & Trisha have completed Brown's B-Lab, were featured in Bloomberg radio, and named a top 10 startup to watch in 2021 in RI.
Listen to Trisha explain the tech and process behind mapping the US, creating proprietary "quiet networks," and crowdsourcing data from micro mobility riders. Maggie delves into the insights gained from customer discovery interviews, and the beta test conducted in Providence. Maggie & Trisha share their personal stories of how they decided to pursue Pointz, formed relationships with biking communities nation wide, and are making micro-mobility transportation safer and more accessible for everyday people.
Reach out to Maggie & Trisha on IG @bikepointz to join their beta test, and be sure to download the app when it launches in August!
