Onward, a specialized ride-sharing service offering “door-through-door” assistance, emerged victorious in AARP’s AgeTech pitch competition. Unlike traditional ride-sharing, Onward’s drivers assist passengers from their homes to their destinations, providing support with tasks like dressing and carrying mobility aids. This service addresses the unique transportation needs of older adults, ensuring safety and companionship throughout the journey. As the winner, Onward received a $10,000 prize and plans to expand its services beyond the San Francisco Bay Area.
