How We Built a Smarter Pickup Experience for Gated Communities

Lyft solved pickup friction in gated communities, which represent 25-30% of rides in select markets.

• •No outside-gate pickup options and no way to share gate access instructions in advance
• •Built algorithm using OpenStreetMap and driver feedback to map community boundaries
• •Redesigned UI offering both inside and outside-gate options with rider pattern recommendations
• •Created interface with numpad and pre-filled options replacing text communication
