Curb is introducing Curb Flow to San Francisco, hoping to revolutionize the traditional taxi service by providing drivers with tools to optimize their work and enabling passengers to enjoy a more efficient ride experience. Curb, known for connecting users with licensed taxis and for-hire rides, witnessed a fourfold increase in their network volume since Curb Flow's inception last year, PR Newswire reported.

The cooperation with Yellow Cab, the largest taxi fleet in San Francisco, means more available taxis and less waiting for riders, "Expanding Curb Flow to San Francisco is a natural fit," said Amos Tamam, CEO of Curb, according to a PR Newswire interview. Chris Sweis of Yellow Cab backs that sentiment, adding that integrating Curb Flow sets a new standard for efficient service in a city known for its cutting-edge approaches.

Simplifying rides for both passengers and drivers, Curb uses Upfront Pricing to offer price transparency in San Francisco County, factoring in estimated tolls, taxes, and surcharges, keeping in line with local taxi regulations as detailed on Curb's page, with tips being the only extra, decided upon at the ride's end. Daniel Gebreselasie, a taxi driver, told PR Newswire, "The addition of Curb Flow to our city is a game-changer. It's not just about getting more rides; it's about getting better rides," capturing the optimistic outlook among drivers in the wake of Curb Flow's advent.
