Natural progression for Uber - great for smaller biz looking to provide on-demand services without worrying about the overhead and logistics. Look forward to seeing what comes out of this!

@dannyjpwilliams Same here!

pretty cool. Wondering if I could use this API to deliver people.. like a house cleaner for a couple hours?
Chris Saad
@ruv you can use the Uber Rides API for that
Chris Messina
@ruv you should probably just user the Uber Ride Request API for that!

Pretty amazing! Going to allow companies to have better relationships with customers

So now stores don't need to list on any other on-demand delivery service. Just integrate Uber API and done. Is it direct competition to Postmate or Doordash?

Congrats on the public launch of UberRUSH! I’m excited to see the mix of companies that take advantage of on demand delivery. This will be a big value add for companies, like Nordstrom, that want to provide the same delivery convenience that consumers have come to expect (partially due to Amazon’s same day delivery service). Cool to see Uber build tools that help improve other businesses.

@tylerswartz Thanks! Nordstrom is actually one of our partners :)

Very big deal! This is like AWS for startups, it might further open up the O2O world.

@grantgrantgo That's the plan! Glad you are excited as we are :)

It's like AWS for logistics

@pommalicious Bingo! :)

Was really excited when Postmates did this (something like 2 yrs ago?), but I haven't seen a whole lot of interesting use cases develop.

Brilliant.

I have used uberpool several times to get things delivered to me. Worked seamlessly. Should be cool to see it in action with formality.

@mfacchinello Yea we've seen a lot of that in the past which is why we created a variety of UberRUSH products that cater to specific audiences. We also have an easy to use dashboard product that uses a web interface for those who are looking for a less technical integration that comes with the API. We are super excited about the possibilities :)
