ANNOUNCING

San Franciscans can hustle hard in the freelance economy with a Maven car for all of their driving gigs. Maven Gig is expanding its initial offering in San Diego to now include San Francisco. The service will launch in Los Angeles later this year.

Maven has partnered with industry-leading apps in package delivery, food delivery and ride-hailing, creating a one-stop shop to maximize earning potential for gig drivers. Initial partners include GrubHub, Instacart, Roadie and ridesharing services.

DETAILS

•By 2020, an estimated 43 percent of the U.S. workforce will be made up of freelance workers. The nature of employment is changing, and Maven Gig is a nimble platform that will grow and adapt with the shift.

•Maven Gig serves as a singular portal allowing access to vehicles that can be used for multiple sharing services with endless possible gigs.

•Maven has been operating on-demand ridesharing rentals in San Francisco since August 2016.

•More than 20 million miles have been driven in San Francisco and nearly 1 million rides have been given.
