Driver FAQ
Bruber is built for drivers who need to understand the real offer quickly: estimated take-home, $/hr, $/mi, dead-mile risk, and whether the trip clears their own cost floor.
The color signal compares an offer against your own thresholds. Green means the offer appears to meet your settings, yellow means it is close or mixed, and red means it appears below your selected floor. The signal is decision support, not an instruction.
As accurate as your settings and the offer details Bruber can see. Bruber applies your fuel cost, MPG, maintenance estimate, depreciation, and tax rate to each offer. The more precisely you enter your actual costs, the closer the estimate is to your real number. Bruber uses the word "estimated" throughout — it is decision support, not a guarantee.

Bruber starts with rideshare offer details such as gross pay, pickup distance, trip distance, and time. Then it subtracts estimated vehicle and tax costs from the driver settings you enter, so the offer is evaluated against your real operating assumptions instead of a generic average.
Bruber can factor in fuel, MPG, maintenance, depreciation, and tax rate. Those inputs turn a gross rideshare offer into a more useful estimated take-home number. The cost page explains why driver costs change the value of every offer.
Dead-mile risk is the unpaid driving around an offer, including pickup distance and possible repositioning after drop-off. Bruber factors in pickup and trip distance from the rideshare offer, while destination quality and likely repositioning become clearer through pattern history over time. For a deeper explanation, read about deadhead miles in rideshare.
Bruber is designed around rideshare offer math, not a single rideshare company login. It does not connect to driver accounts or control any rideshare app. The useful question is whether the rideshare offer details are enough to estimate take-home against your cost floor.
The floating button is the quick capture control drivers set up during onboarding. Pilot setup usually takes about five minutes, and pilot support helps if the setup gets stuck. Most drivers should be able to set it up before their next shift.
Bruber is built for the short offer decision window, but drivers should only use it in ways that are legal and safe for their situation. It supports judgment; it does not replace attention, local rules, or driver responsibility.
No. Your green, yellow, and red zones are based on thresholds you set. Bruber shows how an offer compares to your settings. The decision is yours.
Mileage trackers mostly record miles after the fact. Bruber is focused on the offer moment: estimated take-home, $/hr, $/mi, and patterns that help you understand which offers fit your cost floor.
No. Bruber works from saved offer records and the cost settings you provide. No rideshare company login. No account access. No scraping.
Bruber's pilot is built around driver-controlled offer records and cost settings, not rideshare-account access. The app does not require your platform password or scrape your rideshare account.
Your saved offers become your business memory. Bruber uses them to show patterns over time, such as routes, hours, and offer types that tend to clear or miss your cost floor.
No. Bruber shows estimated take-home, $/hr, $/mi, and patterns over time. What you do with that information is your decision. The goal is to make real take-home from rideshare offers easier to see before you accept.
Bruber is currently reviewing iPhone drivers in the SF Bay Area for the private pilot. Full-time and part-time drivers can request access. Android drivers and drivers outside the Bay Area can join the waitlist. If selected, you receive onboarding and setup instructions. This is a private pilot — not every request receives immediate access.
