Online taxi hailing firm Ola introduced ‘Ola Operator’- a
first of its kind mobile technology solution with its new ‘Ola Operator’ app –
built for entrepreneurs who have grown from one car to many on the Ola platform
over the years, as well as operators who own cars, but employ drivers, to work
on the platform.
With this launch, Ola aims to add tens of thousands of new
Operators onto its platform, including driver-partners who have turned
entrepreneurs, operators in the business of transportation, as well as aspiring
first-time entrepreneurs who would like to be part of the mobility ecosystem
with minimal time commitment.
“Ola Operator has been built for entrepreneurs who have
grown from one car to many on the Ola platform over the years, as well as
operators who own cars, and employ drivers,” Anand Subramanian, the senior
director of marketing communications at Ola told reporters.
“We expect this initiative, and our other recent initiatives
to help Ola double its fleet size from 4.5 lakh, in the near-term. While we
haven’t set a target, we are adding at least 1,200-1,300 cars everyday, and
expect to grow exponentially with this initiative,” he added.
The app will help operators conveniently track the location
of each one of their registered vehicles, in real-time as well as receive live
alerts on their running status. Operators can monitor log-in details, daily
earnings, and performance, all from a single window in real time. The app
dashboard will display details on the Operator’s current balance, total number
of rides completed and earnings with break-up in cash and online payments made
for selected period with detailing at a vehicle and driver-level. The app will
also act as a repository for requisite documents such as vehicle registration,
insurance and license of appointed drivers, amongst others.
