Time to tap on ‘Pick me up’

And now, with the monsoon just around the corner, it seems like another third world problem. The call center queues have started becoming enormous and to skip all of these, we thought of this app through which you can book a cab while sitting in your living room.

Once the app is installed on your Android, you can book your Ola cab within seconds with just a click of a button

We’re getting a new personality!

When we started out, it was just Ankit and me working out of our apartment.

After we received Angel funding, we started rethinking our brand and identity and went back to the drawing board to design from scratch. The whole team contributed and here’s what we came up with and the thought and steps that went into designing our new logo. In a following post, I’ll share our upcoming website design!
