Co-oto transforms private car sharing into a simple and direct experience for people who already know each other (neighbors, friends, roommates, etc.). Ask your circle to identify people interested in sharing their car or wanting to borrow yours (up to 25 drivers and 10 vehicles per account).
Together, establish the terms of your private car sharing agreement and install the app. You can then save money by managing your trips and expenses directly, all without intermediaries.
Three ways to share your vehicle
Choose from three usage modes: vehicle loan, logbook, and reservations only.

Trip management
Co-oto doesn't require any device installation in your vehicle.
Add, modify, or delete your trips based on the vehicle's odometer. The app calculates trip costs based on parameters set by the owner.
All trip-related data is visible to both users.
Expense breakdown
The owner can reset each borrower's balance separately at any time when receiving payment to start fresh.
Calendar and reservations
Borrowers can reserve the vehicle and inform the owner of their usage needs.
The owner can then validate these reservations if needed. Both borrowers and owner can add trips to the calendar.
It's also possible to enable or disable reservation validation by the owner, according to the circle's preferences.
