    Project Details

    Bolt, formerly known as Taxify, is a rapidly growing ride-hailing platform founded in 2013. From its early startup stage, Bolt leveraged Google Maps APIs to enhance its service delivery. Today, Bolt’s Google Maps-based application serves over 70 million customers across 40 countries, offering a seamless ride-booking experience.

    Bolt built a mobile application that connects users to a backend service using Google Maps APIs. This tailor-made solution provides users with fast and easy access to ride booking, precise routing, real-time tracking, and estimated arrival times.
