A new Boston-area startup hopes to be a new on-demand ride service that will only offer rides to women, and children of any gender under 13.
Chariot for Women, which was founded by a husband-and-wife team from Charlton, Massachusetts, is set to launch nationwide on April 19. Its pricing will be much more similar to traditional taxi fares, with a base charge and a per mile rate—and with no surge pricing.
