Driveway Corporation

Driveway Corporation was a dot-com-era online file storage and sharing service that operated driveway.com from roughly 1998 until 2001. Its consumer product let members "store and access files from any Web-connected computer" and share documents, photos and MP3s with friends and colleagues, with up to 100 MB of free storage on sign-up; it also marketed a white-label "Driveway Private Label Storage" offering to other websites. Battery Ventures lists Driveway Corporation as an exited investment. The company is defunct and no longer operates any web, developer or API surface. NOTE: the driveway.com domain today belongs to an unrelated business — Lithia Motors' Driveway online car marketplace — and must not be attributed to this company.

Driveway Corporation is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Defunct, Storage, File Sharing, and Cloud Storage.

  notes: Identity resolved via the Battery Ventures exited-investment listing and Wayback Machine snapshots of driveway.com
    (2000). Company is defunct; no live domain under its control, no developer portal, no API surface. A Wayback CDX sweep
    of driveway.com over 1998-2003 returned zero api/developer/sdk URLs. No artifacts generated — nothing to search, probe
    or derive from.
