Our ride so far...

Two friends John Vournas and Doug Woodard decided to become business partners and start “Platinum Transportation” in 2010 in Phoenix Arizona. Despite the poor economy and only $8,000 available for start-up, they figured out an original and innovative method of transportation that’s been consistently desired by the nightlife crowd. They and their friend, Brandon Donnelly, are ambitious entrepreneurs held back only by lack of capital.

The idea for TranSend was had one day while driving for their company. It would be a revolution in ground transportation brought about by technology. Using GPS capabilities via Smartphone, dispatchers for cab companies would no longer be needed. Using an app designed specifically for this purpose, both the driver and person seeking a ride could communicate efficiently, directly to one-another, creating an all around improvement in the world of transportation.


Learning that no one else has an app on the market with the functionality or purpose they vision their app incorporating, Brandon, John and Doug decided to brainstorm. Over the next two months the intricacies turned into a project plan. After presenting the plan to an investor and being turned down, we realized that merely a project plan wasn’t enough. Instead a complete model of a in the form of a business plan was necessary. For three months we did extensive market research learning everything possibly could about the app industry.

Seven months after the idea originated, the strongest model of TranSend is ready for production. A development company has been contracted to build the app. Production had started but is currently at a stand-still due to the lack of capital to continue. With your help, we can finish TranSend and turn its service on allowing people to know who they are booking for transportation and do it more efficiently.

Let's Change Transportation

Want to see a really cool way to book your transportation? Look below.


If you want the easiest, fastest and greatest way to book transportation to come to life, then please contribute. Beyond making your life easier, you will be helping the outstanding members of the transportation industry. Those who provide clean vehicles and superior service will be rewarded for their excellence, for the first time ever. Would you rather give your money for a ride to the airport to an angry, old man who smells of booze and has a bad attitude, or the young student paying their way through college who always provides fast service with a smile. With TranSend you will know which one you are getting ahead of time.


If our campaign doesn't happen, people may be stuck with riding in smelly vehicles with rude drivers without ever knowing what they are getting into ahead of time! Why should we settle for that when we are in the information age?

The Long and Short

We have been working on TranSend for months now, and have several means of funding it. As it has been going, we have been funding it with earnings from our day jobs, this is a slow process. We also had an investor courting us for a while. We have modified it and are ready to give them another shot, but we don't want all our eggs in that basket so here we are at IndieGoGo. Even if we can get some of the money we need from Indie, it would be a huge step forward.


TranSend will happen one way or another, however, if the campaign does not reach our full funding goals, the money will be used in the following priorities (highest priority to lowest):

  • Necessary Programming - You can't have an app if its not actually in existence. ($40,000)
  • Legal - We need to protect ourselves from people who wish to sue is if a cabby gets out of line. ($20,000)
  • Marketing - If we raise enough capital and legal has done its stuff, YouTube Video Production, Random QR code hunts, and other fun things will be done for marketing. ($20,000)
  • Extra Programming - Any money remaining after marketing will be set aside for system maintenance, upgrades and new features. ($20,000)


No Purchase Necessary

We appreciate all of your monetary support, but other forms of support are necessary too. During our development phase please inform anyone you can (friends, family, coworkers) about our project and how to find us on IndieGoGo.com. If you know any one that could help us develop this app that would be helpful too. If you know anyone who drives a vehicle for a living, tell them about us! We will help them make more money when our app launches. Don't forget to use Facebook and Twitter to promote TranSend: The Next Revolution in Transportation.
