Send a box or find one on your way
Everything you do here shows up live in the app, also in the demo phones below. Type any address in Germany.
Boxes on your way
How it works
Three steps, either way
Senders save a trip. Drivers earn a little on a trip they make anyway.
2
A driver takes it along
Someone with a checked ID who drives that way anyway picks it up.
3
Hand over with a code
The receiver gives a 4-digit code. Only then the box counts as delivered.

Live demo
Be both people at once
Sara sends, Max drives. Both phones are live and update each other.
- Sara: is new. She creates her profile and confirms her ID.
- Sara: taps "Send" and posts a box in four short steps.
- Max: is already registered and on his way to work. Sara's box appears on his route. He takes it.
- Max: in "Activity", taps "I picked it up". Sara sees her handover code.
- Max: enters Sara's code. Both rate each other and see the CO₂ they saved.

Safety
Built on trust
You hand your things to someone you haven't met. Every step has a check.
ID check
Everyone verifies their ID once before sending or driving.
Ratings
Senders and drivers rate each other after each delivery.
Live location
Follow your box while the driver shares their location.
Handover code
The box counts as delivered only with the receiver's code.
For farms and small shops
Regional food, fewer empty trips
Farms drive small orders into town every week, often half empty. Paxmit lets their crates travel with people who drive in anyway.

Paxmit is part of a master thesis in Creative Direction at Hochschule Pforzheim, bridging design and Lean Startup.
What I'm testing
- Will commuters carry a stranger's box for a small fee?
- Which trust signals make senders hand over their goods?
- Do farms prefer a pickup service or shared trips with other farms?
How
Interviews with direct-marketing farms across Germany, a manual pilot with local farms, and this prototype for user tests.
Questions
Good to know
What can I send?
Everyday things that fit in a car: food crates, parcels, borrowed tools. Weapons, drugs, alcohol, cash, valuables over 500 € and live animals aren't allowed.
How does payment work?
In this prototype, no money moves. A full version would hold the payment in the app until the handover code is confirmed.
Is my box insured?
Not in the prototype. A launch would insure each box up to a set value through a partner insurer.
Where is my data stored?
In this demo, only in your own browser. Nothing is sent to a server.
