NAME- RydeGo PROBLEM - Inefficient transport systems in Tier 2, 3 cities and rural areas; Ola, Uber- pricey, not enough penetration; Rapido - inherently unsafe (2W), carries only one passenger; Return journeys of e-rickshaws are usually empty, losing precious revenue. SOLUTION - Organising the fragmented e-rickshaw market; Service will be affordable compared to Ola, Uber; E-rickshaws are present in most towns and villages; They are safe (3W); Can carry 4-6 passengers, ride-sharing will reduce cost per passenger. Return journeys can be made profitable by helping riders connect with drivers. Ride-hailing services market size- $7.26 bn (2028) with 287.40mn users. Majority of India resides in Tier 2 and beyond cities and villages, the number being >70% (approximately 1 billion people). We can expand user base to approx 500mn or more, and hopefully capture significant market share. COMPETITION - Ola,Uber, Rapido,InDrive PROGRESS - MVP phase

Great idea! I agree with the fact that tapping tier 2 and 3 can prove vital in deciding the future of ride hailing services. However, I have a few fundamental questions about this: 1). Usually, the cost of a ride in an e-rickshaw is very cheap, mostly ranging between Rs.10-20 in tier 2 cities. How would profitability and margins be achieved since the customers would not be willing to pay a higher amount because of the easy accessibility to e-rickshaws in general? 2). Usually the distance covered in e-rickshaws is not really long, usually ranging between 1-5 KMs. This will again serve as a deterrent for high-tocken sized rides. 3). E-rickshaws are more easily accessible than cabs. Only does not really need to make much effort to get an e rickshaw for a ride. Why would a consumer take the inconvenience of downloading an app and waiting for a ride?

Rapido foraying into Food Delivery could be a game-changer esp. following its disruptive impact on ride-hailing services. 🗓️Back in 2017 → Uber via 'Uber Eats' made a similar attempt but struggled to compete with Zomato/Swiggy. So, why does Rapido

Rapido entered Ride hailing 5 years after Ola launched. Now Rapido is entering Food Delivery 5 years after Swiggy launched. At this rate, Rapido will launch its quick commerce app in 2029.
