Interesting, and really slick FTUX, but it seems like they've "skurted" around mentioning the fact that the $100 off code provided is actually $10 off each day of a rental up to 10 days.

@satshabad I see it clearly listed in the gold star at the top of this post. Is it not showing up for you? That's no good. Either way, with the lowest daily rate in the industry combined with the $10/day up to $100 total promo here - you can rent a Corolla for $4 a day. That's a pretty great deal.

Super interesting idea! But I don't know what your rates are like tho... any chance SF might be in the works, and if an Android app is coming out?
Josh Mangel
@hariviswanath - SF is coming soon! Android is definitely in the works :)
Eduardo Moscatelli
Great product!
Aaron Peck
@edumoscatelli Thanks Eduardo!

@geeky_yang That's definitely on our roadmap!
Phillip Yang
@joshmangel awesome! I'll be on the lookout!
Jamie Martin
No pricing information anywhere? How much does this cost compared to a normal rental car?
Aaron Peck
@livejamie Hi Jamie! We're typically much more affordable (30%-50% off). Just open the app and select your dates to see your exact pricing.

Congratulations on the funding Skurt!
Aaron Peck
@elliotisles Thanks Elliot!

Really cool! Can you make the text 'download with Skurt app' clickable so that it links to the Apple store? Texting or mailing the link to the app is not as convenient. When do you plan to launch the Android version?
Aaron Peck
@seysconstantijn Thanks Seys! The text and email options were made so that you can send a download link to your phone if you're viewing our site from your desktop. If you're viewing from your phone, just tap the "Get" button at the top and you'll be taken straight to the app store.

Damn, this looks amazing. I'm currently trying to hire a car to drive from LAX -> SFO soon, so *hoping* this will work...
Aaron Peck
@ow Thanks for the complements. We don't do one-way rentals of that distance yet but we hope to soon. That said, email me personally when you're in LA and we'll get you a Skurt while you're in town. It's aaron@skurtapp.com.

have been a big fan of Silvercar until they stopped picking you up from the airport. to me, that's the biggest point of differentiation, and one I miss. look forward to giving this a try! congrats team :)
Aaron Peck
@mlschwab Looking forward to having you. You're going to love the experience.

I just had my entire FB feed talking about this. This is an amazing time saver and pain killer. Would love to see this outside of LA and going global. Most of my trips are to Europe, and this will surely make my life easier! Good luck guys! @joshmangel
Josh Mangel
@kobaiko - That's epic - thanks Yair :D Europe is surely on our roadmap!
