Key features

Features riders and drivers expect from a modern taxi app

01

Smart fare engine

Base fare, per-km, per-minute, night and waiting charges are set from the admin panel, so you can price local and outstation trips differently.

02

Local and outstation in one app

Riders switch between a quick city ride and a one-way or round-trip outstation booking without leaving the app.

03

Live tracking and trip sharing

Riders see the driver approach in real time and can share the live trip with family for peace of mind.

04

Driver matching

Requests go to the nearest available drivers first, which keeps pickup times short as your fleet grows.

05

OTP ride start

Every trip starts with a one-time code, so the right rider gets into the right car.

06

SOS and safety

An in-app SOS button alerts your admin team and the rider's emergency contact with the live location.

07

Wallet and payments

Accept cash, UPI and cards, with a rider wallet for refunds and offers.

08

Ratings and feedback

Two-way ratings help you keep service quality high and spot drivers who need support.

The 2-week launch plan

From first call to store listing in two weeks

Week 1: Brand and set-up

Kick-off callWe confirm your city, vehicle types, fare model and the features you want switched on.
Brand set-upYour app name, logo, colours and splash screen are applied across the rider and driver apps.
Fares and zonesService areas, vehicle categories and fare rules are configured in the admin panel.
Payments and mapsYour payment gateway and maps keys are connected and tested.

Week 2: Test and launch

Pilot testingYou and a few drivers run test rides end to end, and we fix anything that feels off.
Store listingsWe prepare screenshots, descriptions and policies for Play Store and App Store.
Submission and approvalApps are submitted under your developer accounts and we handle review questions.
Go liveYour rider app is live, drivers are onboarded and your team is trained on the admin panel.

The two-week plan applies when brand assets, store accounts and content are shared on time and the feature list stays within the proven platform. Larger custom features are planned as a separate phase so your launch date does not move.

Make it yours

What you can customise

The platform is proven, but the business is yours. These are the parts our clients usually change before launch.

BrandApp name, logo, icon, colours, fonts, splash screen and store listing.
Vehicle typesBikes, autos, hatchbacks, sedans, SUVs, or a premium-only fleet.
Revenue modelCommission per ride, driver subscription, or a fixed fleet model.
Fare rulesCity, airport, rental and outstation pricing with your own surcharges.
FeaturesCorporate rides, women-only rides, rentals by the hour, or local language support.

Why Itboomi

A dedicated mobile app company behind your launch

Mobile apps onlyItboomi is a dedicated mobile app development company. Your taxi booking app is built by a team that ships Android and iOS apps every week, not a general agency fitting apps in between websites.
Serving CoimbatoreOur team works from Tiruppur and serves founders across Coimbatore, Tiruppur, Erode and the wider Kongu region, so planning calls and handover sessions can happen face to face when that helps.
You own the launchThe apps are published under your own developer accounts, with your brand name, your icon and your store listing. Your customers never see Itboomi inside the app.
Support after launchWe stay on after go-live for fixes, store updates and new features, so the first two weeks are a start, not a hand-off.

Why start with a proven taxi platform

Building a taxi app from scratch means designing three connected products at once: a rider app, a driver app and an admin panel, all talking to each other in real time. That is months of work before the first ride. A proven platform skips that stage. The core booking flow, matching logic and live tracking already work, so the two weeks go into what makes your service different: your brand, your fares and your city.

This is the same approach behind many regional cab services in India. Founders who want an app like Uber or Ola for their own town do not need to reinvent dispatch. They need a reliable base that looks and feels like their own business.

Local rides and outstation trips together

Most taxi apps treat city rides and outstation trips as two different businesses. In Tamil Nadu they often share the same drivers and the same customers. A rider who books an auto to the bus stand on Monday may book a sedan to Madurai on Friday. Keeping both in one app means one customer list, one driver pool and one dashboard.

Outstation bookings support one-way and round trips, with driver allowance, toll and night charge rules set from the admin panel. If you only want a marketplace for outstation trips, see our outstation taxi marketplace page.

What happens after launch

Launching is the first milestone. Over the following weeks you will add drivers, run offers and learn what your riders ask for. Itboomi stays on to ship updates, keep the apps compatible with new Android and iOS versions, and add features as your fleet grows.

Is a taxi app right for your business?

A taxi booking app suits travel agencies moving their phone bookings online, fleet owners who want to fill idle cars, and entrepreneurs starting a city cab or bike taxi service. It also suits resorts, colleges and large campuses that run their own transport.

If you are unsure, share how you take bookings today. We will tell you honestly whether the taxi platform fits, or whether a simpler booking app is the better first step.

FAQs

Questions founders ask before launching

How can a taxi booking app launch in 2 weeks?

The rider app, driver app and admin panel are already built and tested. The two weeks are spent applying your brand, setting up fares and zones, connecting your payment gateway, testing with your drivers and publishing to the stores.

Will the app carry my brand or Itboomi's?

Your brand. The app name, logo, colours and store listing are yours, and the apps are published under your own Play Store and App Store accounts.

Does it support both local and outstation rides?

Yes. Riders can book quick city rides and one-way or round-trip outstation journeys from the same app, with separate fare rules for each.

Can I add features that are not in the platform?

Yes. We launch with the proven feature set first, then plan extra features as a follow-up phase so your launch date stays on track.

Is it like Uber or Ola?

The rider experience is similar to well-known ride apps such as Uber and Ola, but this is your own independent app and brand. It is not affiliated with those companies.

Do you work with taxi businesses outside Coimbatore?

Yes. Itboomi serves Coimbatore and the Kongu region closely, and works with founders across Tamil Nadu and India over calls and screen-share.
