Investor overview · Early-stage venture
Connection for people who spend long hours on the road.
SameDrive is being developed as a social voice-calling platform designed to match like-minded drivers for genuine conversation, with an initial focus on freight and transport.
The opportunity
A real human problem.
A focused place to start.
01 . Problem
Isolation on the road
Long hours on the road can leave freight and transport drivers feeling disconnected, with flow-on effects for wellbeing, families and the industry.
02 . Solution
Genuine voice connection
SameDrive proposes matching drivers for one-to-one voice conversations based on profile details and preferences, helping turn one-off calls into meaningful connections.
03 . Vision
Beyond one industry
The initial market is transport and freight, with a broader long-term vision centred on connection and wellbeing wherever isolation is part of work or circumstance.

Founder
Why this became personal.
After starting a role that involved a lot of time on the road, founder Nicole Marks found that genuine conversation and connection made the biggest difference to how the journey felt.
That experience led to the idea that freight and transport workers may face the same isolation every day, and inspired the creation of SameDrive. Nicole brings more than 20 years of sales-industry experience and is continuing to seek industry insight through research and conversations.
