It all started with the typical ‘in-a-bar’, ‘on-the-tissue-paper’ evening. They Both of were frustrated with the fact that every time that they traveled and needed a taxi, they had to call two or three operators, for the glimmer of hope that they would receive a taxi sometime in a two or three hour time frame. They actually kept discussing on whether to become a meta-search engine that would provide a list of different taxi operators. Then one thought led to another and voila, they stumbled across the idea to be an aggregator for the radio taxi industry in India. What they call to be pure ‘Serendipity’. Now you know where the name of the company comes from. Since that point, their idea to become a taxi aggregator has become a reality, they call it as TaxiForSure, and they strive to be the idyllic service for anyone who needs transportation. This has not been an easy feat by any means and their vision has gone through many iterations to become what they are today. As the ideas, thoughts and product designs began to accumulate our main objective to provide us, the customer, with a safe, reliable and easy taxi service, still proved to be the focal point. They believe that in today’s day and age, one should have confidence that their taxi will arrive on time and that you will not be over charged, and for these reasons, they introduced the much needed transparency. Going along with the theme of empowering their customers.
