The idea in five stops

From a lost day to a working one

  1. Stop 1 · Problem

    Short flights eat the day

    On trips of 150–300 miles, travelers lose hours to airport transfers, security, delays and boarding for a flight that is short in the air. Driving yourself wastes the whole day. Either way, the time is rarely productive or private.

  2. Stop 2 · Solution

    A private ride that works

    Priva is a booking marketplace for door-to-door private rides between cities. Luxury cars and SUVs are converted into mobile offices with Wi-Fi, presentation screens and a private compartment.

  3. Stop 3 · Product

    Route-first tools

    This site lets you explore corridors on a map, compare door-to-door time for flying and riding, plan work blocks inside the vehicle and use three AI helpers. Planning data stays in your browser.

  4. Stop 4 · Business model

    Marketplace commission

    Priva will earn a marketplace commission on each booked ride once booking opens. Booking is not open yet. Corporate travel programs and repeat business accounts are the natural expansion, and the free tools bring in high-intent travelers before they book.

  5. Stop 5 · Vision

    The routine regional trip

    Make the 150–300 mile trip a routine part of the working day, so regional business travel is as productive as the office, and connect the city pairs that sit between a short drive and a flight.

MILE1

How to work in a vehicle

Treat the ride like a small office with a fixed timetable. Do the work that needs a screen and quiet first, keep calls for the middle when the road is steady, and leave the last 20 minutes for notes and arrival.

Example scenario: a 3 hour ride. 45 minutes deck review, 30 minute client call, 60 minutes focus time, 15 minute break, 20 minutes notes.

  • Charge every device before pickup
  • Download files you need offline
  • Put calls in the middle of the ride
  • Take a short break on rides over 3 hours

MILE2

How to prepare for a client meeting after a ride

Aim to arrive with the meeting already rehearsed. Use the ride to review the deck, write three points you want to land and agree an agenda with colleagues. Keep a buffer so a slow road does not become a late start.

Example scenario: leave at 7:00, meeting at 13:00. Rehearse the pitch in hour one, answer email in hour two, stop work 30 minutes before arrival.

  • Share the agenda the day before
  • Rehearse the opening two minutes
  • Send an arrival-time note to the client
  • Keep 20+ minutes of buffer
Draft the agenda and message →
MILE3

How to compare a ride and a flight for a trip

Compare door to door, not gate to gate. Add the trip to the airport, check-in and security, the flight, a delay buffer and the trip from the arrival airport. Then count how many hours you could actually work in each case.

Example scenario: 280 miles. A 55 minute flight plus transfers and buffers comes to around four hours (about 3 h 55 min with default buffers); the ride takes about 4 h 50 min door to door and can be mostly working time.

  • Use your real airport transfer time
  • Include a delay buffer
  • Count working hours, not only minutes
  • Treat all numbers as estimates
