Company Performance Metrics
Carstone operates Rue, a transport technology platform focused on taxi and private hire services. The company develops passenger and driver apps that connect riders with nearby licensed local taxi firms and independent drivers, particularly in rural areas. Its software centralises bookings, reduces empty mileage, and supports work outside
traditional office hours through digital dispatch and trip-management tools. Carstone’s Rue platform incorporates real-time vehicle tracking, in-app driver and passenger ratings, and transparent price presentation. It also includes the FareFlex feature, which lets drivers request adjusted fares for factors such as traffic and road conditions for passenger approval. By providing this infrastructure, Carstone supports local operators in coordinating journeys and managing their businesses through mobile applications.
