Bangalore’s one city where you can never run out of plans on things to do. There are SO many options to choose from – coffee shops, sushi bars, restro-bars, Cubbon Park, Blossoms – the possibilities are endless. But that is until you actually step out and try to get a cab. Then it’s all about high fares, drivers canceling on you, juggling multiple apps, getting ghosted… you know the drill. However, there’s a refreshing new solution to all of these problems in the form of inDrive, a new ‘people-driven’ cab app that’s just launched in Bangalore!
We know what you’re thinking - you live in Bangalore, and in true Bangalore fashion you’ve already seen a dozen apps/start-ups for everything under the sun. So what makes inDrive different? Unlike any other ride-hailing app you’ve used before, inDrive is a community-driven platform. Here’s how it works: once you’re done signing up and booking a ride, inDrive shows you all the drivers in your vicinity. Next, you can offer your own fare, choose your driver based on the vehicle, ratings, pick-up time, and distance, and enjoy your surge-free ride!
This ride-hailing model is all that inDrive’s ‘pay what’s fair’ proposition is about. Unlike the other ride-hailing apps that have an unjust monopoly on the market, inDrive has a people-driven approach — giving both consumers and drivers the option to choose what’s best for them and minimizing last-minute cancellations. Additionally, inDrive lets you pay directly to the drivers, so there are no heavy commissions or hidden charges levied on them, making it a socially conscious choice. Apart from the fact that you get to decide your own fare, another major advantage of using inDrive is the transparency throughout the entire ride-hailing process. When you book a ride, you can check out the drivers present near you, their arrival time, car model, and ratings, and then pick a ride, instead of being randomly paired with drivers by an algorithm.
inDrive may be new to Bangalore, but it’s already been one of the top choices in cities like Delhi, Mumbai, Chandigarh, and Kolkata. As of now, inDrive is currently active in 750+ cities across 47 countries, and is spreading fast across India, because you know we love a good bargain and options to choose from. What makes it awesome is that it’s not just another app that provides you services; it’s a community-driven platform for modern consumers who value convenience and affordability without compromising on ethical business practices. So, next time you’re stepping out, you know what app you need on your phone!
