THE PROJECT
The incenTrip project was initially funded by the U.S. Department of Energy's Advanced Research Projects Agency - Energy (ARPA-E) through a $4.5 million TRANSNET program grant. Technical development for incenTrip technology has also benefited from funding from the National Science Foundation, and the U.S. Department of Transportation's Federal Highway Administration. The projects in ARPA-E's TRANSNET program employ new transportation system models, network control architectures, and incentive strategies to reduce energy use, emissions and congestion.
Avoid traffic, save fuel, and earn rewards with travel information & incentives personalized just for you.
incenTrip employs the latest ARPA-E technology to accurately
predict traffic to help travelers avoid both day-to-day congestion
and traffic jams caused by traffic accidents, work zones, special
events and adverse weather conditions. Users earn reward points
while receiving recommendations on the best travel mode, departure
time as well as route recommendations. Additionally, incenTrip
analyzes and helps users adopt eco-friendly driving behavior,
which could save each user hundreds of dollars in fuel cost each
year. Earn reward points every time you plan a trip with
incenTrip, take advantage of multimodal travel options, and invite
your friends. With a single click, exchange your reward points for
gas cards, free transit rides, EZ pass credits, bikeshare and Uber
rides, gift cards, charity donations, or cash.
