Our Story

The idea for Wanderu was hatched in 2012, when company co-founders Polina Raygorodskaya and Igor Bratnikov rode a sailboat into the Bermuda Triangle and were hit by a bolt of lightning — giving them both x-ray vision and a sudden taste for bus travel.

Kidding! They were actually on a cross-country campaign called GreenXC, bringing awareness to national parks and forests. Because neither one knew how to ride a unicycle and Lime scooters hadn’t been invented yet, the pair chose rideshares as their primary form of transportation. That is, until one point on the trip when their rideshare cancelled last minute. (Typical. Two stars!) Stranded in rural Virginia with no other options, they resolved to jump on a nearby bus or train.

Which is when they realized what an impossible task that was. All of the ground travel options were scattered across the internet, each on a different site, and none seemed to cover their route or indicate where to find the closest station. Recognizing a real gap in the market, Polina and Igor decided to fix the problem themselves.

Wanderu was founded that winter in Boston, and by Spring 2013 the company was selected as a finalist at the fifth annual SXSW Accelerator, going on to win the Grand Prize in the Innovative Web Technologies category. *pantomimes dusting off shoulder, but like, in a humble way*
