About Rapido

Rapido is the nextgen product which aims to disrupt the way people travel intracity, brought to you by a bunch of IITians looking to make life easier for people. With the urban population growing at a rapid pace, there is a dire need to solve for the ever-growing intracity traffic. Thus, a faster, economical and protected way which also reduces traffic and carbon footprint is the need of the hour.

Rapido is basically a platform where you can book a bike ride through a mobile app while traveling solo. The difference in economics of a two-wheeler and a four-wheeler allows you to save upto 60% of your ride cost when you're traveling solo. With the traffic situation exceptionally pathetic especially during peak hours, zipping past in a two-wheeler saves a lot of time.

What's more is that it also provides an opportunity for people with a two-wheeler (along with the license) to become a rider on the platform and earn some extra money in their spare time.

And all this with just a tap of a button ! Leveraging the cutting-edge state-of-the-art technology to make the life of an urban city dweller much easier and convenient is what we've set out to do.
