About Komyut

The seats are already on the road. We’re filling them.

Komyut is building shared commutes for Lagos: verified car owners offer the seats they aren’t using, and commuters on the same corridor share the cost at a fixed fare.

Every morning in Lagos, thousands of seats travel empty past people waiting for a bus.
Why we exist

Two commuters. One road. Every single morning.

On the Lekki–Epe Expressway, the morning looks the same every day. Cars roll toward the Island with one person inside. At the bus stop, people stack up fares — keke to the junction, bus to the expressway, another bus to the Island — and hope they make it on time.

Both groups are making the same trip. The car owner pays for fuel alone; the rider pays for three connections. Komyut connects them, with the checks that make sharing a car with someone new feel normal.

What we believe

The principles behind every trip.

Safety before scale

We verify every member and review every offerer by hand, even when it slows us down. Trust is the product.

Fair by default

One fixed fare per corridor. No surge, no haggling, and a split that is the same for everyone.

Built for Lagos

Fixed corridors, public pickup points and scheduled trips — designed around how the city actually moves.

Commuters, not drivers

Offerers are people already making the trip. We keep it a shared commute, never a side job.

Clear about what we are

A cost-sharing platform, not a taxi service.

Nobody drives for Komyut full-time. Offerers share the cost of trips they would make anyway, at fares Komyut sets, between fixed corridor points.
