Why Pune is different
Morning pickups share Paud Road, Karve Road, the Mumbai–Bengaluru highway stretch and the roads into Hinjewadi and Kharadi with office traffic. A route that takes 25 minutes one day can take 40 the next, so a fixed timetable is never enough for parents.
Heavy rain from June to September slows traffic and floods low-lying stretches. Parents shouldn't stand at a stop in the rain longer than needed, which is exactly when a live ETA to their own stop matters most.
Schools now draw students from fast-growing areas on the city's edges, so routes are longer and have more stops. Knowing who boarded where, and that every child got off, gets harder with every stop.
How CatchIt helps
FAQ
Yes. CatchIt is based in Pune. Book a demo and we'll walk you through it on your own routes.
Yes. Each parent sees their own child's bus and stop, the live ETA, and an alert when their child boards and gets off. They never see other children or stops.
India's central motor vehicle rules require public service vehicles to be fitted with an AIS-140 vehicle location tracking device and emergency button, and many states apply this to school buses. State notification dates and enforcement vary, so check with your RTO. CatchIt works with any certified AIS-140 device, or can supply its own.
