  title: Lyft Concierge Concierge Rides ETA API
  description: The Lyft Concierge API allows organizations to request rides on behalf of their customers, patients, or employees without requiring those individuals to have a Lyft account. It is designed for enterprise use cases such as healthcare patient transportation, corporate employee transit, and customer service scenarios. The API enables organizations to build customized transportation workflows, schedule rides in advance, track ride status in real time, and manage ride programs at scale. It provides a way to embed Lyft's driver network directly into business operations and third-party applications.
