Split.it

We know Hopkins tuition is expensive but life doesn’t have to be. Our product tells students exactly how to deal with the extra costs: Split.it! College students love saving money and Hopkins students are no exception. As students at JHU, we are uniquely situated in our own suburb, where many do not have access to reliable public transportation nor private-use cars. Uber and Lyft cost a lot for day-to-day use, so we are left with no better options. JHU students already try to post on GroupMe or other platforms to find other students to split costs, but this solution is difficult to manage and reaches only a small portion of the overall JHU population. Our platform allows Hopkins students who use ride-sharing apps to easily find people to split the fare with. The app will leverage the social trust present in the JHU community to make organizing cheap transportation simple.
