Cab Booking Platform Development

**Build a Cab Booking & Fare Aggregation Platform Similar to MakeMyTrip, Goibibo and Savaari (Web + Admin Panel )** --- ### Project Description I am looking for an experienced development team or freelancer to build a complete cab booking platform similar to MakeMyTrip Cabs, Goibibo Cabs and Savaari. The platform should allow users to search and book: * One Way Trips * Round Trips * Airport Transfers * Local Rentals * Outstation Cabs * Multi-City Trips The system should display fares dynamically in a way similar to MMT, Goibibo and Savaari. --- ## Core Requirement One of the most important parts of this project is the **Fare Calculation & Pricing Engine**. Before bidding, please explain: ### Option 1 – API Based Fare Calculation If you plan to use third-party APIs: * Which APIs will be used? * How will distance and route data be fetched? * How will pricing be calculated? * How will surge pricing be handled? * What will be the monthly API costs? * What dependencies will exist on external providers? --- ### Option 2 – Custom Fare Engine If you plan to build a custom pricing engine: Please explain how the fare will be calculated. Example: ``` Distance Calculation + Base Fare + Per KM Rate + Driver Allowance + Toll Charges + State Tax + Night Charges + Demand Multiplier + Platform Margin = Final Customer Fare ``` The system should allow different pricing for: * Hatchback * Sedan * SUV * Innova Crysta * Tempo Traveller --- ## Pricing Engine Requirements The fare engine should support: * Base Fare * Minimum Distance * Per KM Charges * Per Minute Charges * Driver Bata * Toll Estimation * State Tax * Airport Parking * Night Charges * Peak Hour Pricing * Seasonal Pricing * Demand Based Multiplier * Promo Codes * GST * Company Margin Admin should be able to modify all pricing values without developer intervention. --- ## Route & Distance Calculation Please explain: * Will Google Maps API be used? * Will OpenStreetMap / Mapbox be used? * How will route optimization work? * How will distance and travel time be calculated? * How accurate will toll calculations be? I want fare estimates to be as close as possible to MakeMyTrip, Goibibo and Savaari. --- ## Required Modules ### Customer Panel * User Registration/Login * Search Cabs * Fare Estimation * Booking Creation * Online Payments * Booking History * Live Driver Tracking * Invoice Download * Cancellation & Refund ### Driver Panel * Driver Registration * KYC Verification * Ride Acceptance * Navigation Integration * Earnings Dashboard * Wallet ### Admin Panel * Dashboard * Booking Management * Driver Management * Customer Management * Pricing Engine Management * Coupon Management * Reports & Analytics --- ## Technology Expectations Please mention: * Recommended Tech Stack * Database Architecture * Scalability Plan * API Architecture * Security Measures * Expected Development Timeline --- ## Deliverables * Complete Source Code * Database Files * Admin Panel * API Documentation * Deployment Support * Testing & Bug Fixes * Production Ready Application --- ### Important Question (Must Answer in Proposal) **How will you achieve fare calculation accuracy similar to MakeMyTrip, Goibibo and Savaari?** Please explain whether you will: 1. Use third-party fare APIs. 2. Build a custom pricing engine. 3. Use a hybrid model (API + Custom Pricing Engine). Also provide a sample fare calculation flow I prefer a custom pricing engine where distance/time comes from Maps API but fare calculation is controlled by my own pricing rules.
