Shift by GSI

Shift by Green Streets Initiative detects your walks, bike rides, and transit trips automatically — no tapping, no logging, no thinking about it. Your commute earns you real rewards while you move.

See your real impact
Every active trip shows you money saved, calories burned, and CO2 prevented — translated into equivalencies like trees planted.

Earn rewards
Earn Shift Experience Points (XP) on every walk, bike ride, and transit trip. Find rewards from local businesses.

Stay motivated with streaks and badges
Build daily streaks with a forgiving 2-day grace period. Unlock badges for distance milestones, trying new modes, and braving bad weather. Progress through five tiers from Starter to Trailblazer.

Compete with your community
Join your neighborhood, workplace, or school automatically. Climb leaderboards and enter monthly challenges. Challenges are based on "shift rate" — the percentage of your trips you walk, bike, or ride transit — so everyone competes fairly.

Discover new ways to get around
Browse community events, explore personalized route suggestions, and read guides that help you try walking, biking, or transit for trips you haven't before.

Shift for Schools
Teachers can run classroom walking and biking challenges with a simple wall chart — no student accounts or devices needed. Parents see school standings on the web or right in the app.

How it works
Shift uses background location to detect and log your trips automatically — no manual input needed. Your points, stats, and streaks update as you go.
