Our take

CharterUP supplies a tech-driven charter bus service, that allows users to "charter a bus in under 60 seconds". Covering over 700 bus companies in over 100 US locations, the company is able to serve a wide range of clients from schools, to businesses, to individuals looking for private bus hire.

With CharterUP's marketplace, it is possible to receive price quotes from different vendors alongside ratings and reviews, all from a single short questionnaire. Self described as "Expedia-meets-Uber", the company brings much-needed modernization to the logistics of transporting large groups, and has proven to be a high-demand service.

With significant funding raised, the company has been investing in go-to-market strategies, further expanding its footprint in both new and existing markets, and growing its team. It now boasts 50 million miles travelled, 25 million passengers served and 10,000 vehicles operating under its platform.
