This Qatari startup company established in 2019 is providing a set of tools that will streamline communication between all school transportation stakeholders: drivers, fleet managers and parents.
Parents, using the family app, can track the school bus in real time and will receive push notifications on their smart devices a few minutes before the arrival of the bus, which enables them to always send their children on time.
Furthermore, parents can register the absence of their child and raise complaints about the driver's performance through family app.
Drivers will capture children’s attendance and notify parents to tell them exactly when their child has been collected, dropped off, or missed the bus.
Fleet managers, with the guidance of the app, will be able to keep track of their fleet and make timely decisions and announcements in case of emergencies.
The Qatari startup is looking for trade agents introduced in schools and bus transportation companies to sell the solutions.
