AyAuto's Dial-a-Rickshaw Service is Closed
It has been quite a journey. It began with an idea. We supplemented it with the belief that whatever we do, we have to add value for all stakeholders. You helped us nurture it with your feedback and support. The idea has grown from 5 drivers and 2 member team in September ‘11 to 150 drivers and a 15 member team all across Pune by March ‘12.
However, the time has come for us to realize that what we have is a great solution, but not a good business idea. This means that we will be shutting down our Dial-a-Rickshaw operations from the 31st of March 2012. Incidentally, this time coincides with our first ever booking, nearly a year ago. AyAuto will however continue to exist as a technology solutions partner to support similar ventures globally.
We want take this space to reassure you of a safe and smooth transition over to our friends at Autowale.in, another Dial-a-Rickshaw service in Pune who are happy to service you, should you wish to continue travelling by meter. First and foremost, your trip data is safe with us and we will be deleting it from our servers immediately. As an additional measure, all calls to AyAuto at 844-600-1234 will be transferred to Autowale.in at 020 - 66-111-111.
Thank you, once again, for supporting our cause be it as a driver, a customer, an employee, an investor, a vendor or as a friend. And thank you for making AyAuto’s Dial-a-Rickshaw Service something we are proud of and will remember fondly in the years to come.
Onward,
