“Using innovative technology to solve problems and create social benefit is a good business model.”

-Fran Heller, Founder and CEO, Good2Go

In 2015, Good2Go founder Fran Heller was training with a group of runners. One of them needed a restroom which was nowhere to be found. A conversation began about the difficulty and hassle of finding public restrooms in an age when we have smart technology to do just about anything on a smartphone. A better way was long overdue, not just for restrooms but also for other everyday access needs such as office lobbies and visitor parking. Real-life access challenges were the inspiration for the real-life solutions Good2Go provides.

Good2Go access and queue management uses IoT to connect technology to everyday

situations, increasing consumer convenience and retailer customer service. In short, Good2Go provides access to the places people want to go.

San Francisco: 27+ million visitors.

Almost 1 million residents.

Far too few restrooms.

Our first mobile app was inspired by the reality that many major cities struggle with inadequate public resources. The Good2Go restroom on-demand app is currently making life better for both users and retailers throughout San Francisco, with many more cities and access management products launching in the future. Our small team has enjoyed a large reach, serving over 750,000 Good2Go customers with major growth projected ahead.
