SpikeSecure builds taxi, cab, auto and bike taxi booking apps for Chennai call taxi and travels operators and ride-hailing startups: a rider app, a captain app and a dispatch console with airport and metro-feeder trips, upfront fares, ride OTP and SOS, driver KYC, UPI and cash, in Tamil and English. Delivered from our Coimbatore office with on-site kick-off and launch visits in Chennai; we do not have a Chennai office.
SpikeSecure Technologies Pvt. Ltd. builds taxi, cab, auto and bike taxi booking apps for Chennai businesses from its office at CHIL SEZ IT Park, Saravanampatti, Coimbatore. A typical Chennai build is a rider app, a captain app and a dispatch console for a call taxi or travels operator moving phone bookings to an app, or a two-sided ride-hailing platform for a startup, with airport, railway-station and metro-feeder trips set up as fixed pickup points and fare rules.
We have one office, in Coimbatore, and no branch in Chennai. Chennai projects run on a written scope with video demos every week, an on-site kick-off and a field pilot with your drivers on Chennai roads, and a launch visit. We have not yet published a Chennai taxi client by name.

Illustrative screens rendered by SpikeSecure for this page. The app name VaanRide, people, number plates, fares and every figure are sample data, not a client's app or any real app's interface; your build carries your brand, fare rules and cities.
Move phone and WhatsApp bookings to an app and console: fixed airport fares, outstation trips to Puducherry, Vellore, Tirupati and Mahabalipuram, driver allocation from the console, and GST invoices for corporate clients.
Short trips in T. Nagar, Mylapore, Velachery and Anna Nagar and first and last mile to metro stations, with ride OTP, helmet prompts and daily captain payouts. Details on bike taxi app development.
Shift rosters, pick-up and drop routes, women-employee escort rules, tracking for the transport desk and monthly billing per company.
Pre-booked transfers with flight or train number, driver meet-and-greet details, waiting rules and fixed fares from Meenambakkam, Chennai Central and Egmore.
Scheduled rides for patients to hospitals in Greams Road, Porur and Perungudi, with an attendant option and wheelchair-accessible vehicle classes where the fleet has them.
Hourly rentals inside the city and one-way or round trips with tolls, state permits and driver allowances captured on the bill.
| What you are launching | Apps included | Indicative cost | Typical timeline |
|---|---|---|---|
| Fleet or travels booking app | Rider app, web admin with manual or auto dispatch | ₹4–8 lakh | 6–8 weeks |
| Bike taxi or auto MVP, one city | Rider app, captain app, admin, payouts | ₹7–12 lakh | 10–12 weeks |
| Bike, auto and cab platform | Rider, captain, admin, fare and surge engine, KYC, SOS | ₹12–18 lakh | 12–16 weeks |
| Multi-city platform | All of the above plus zones, rentals, outstation, corporate accounts | ₹18–30 lakh and up | 16 weeks and up |
Short answer: a taxi or bike taxi app in India costs ₹4–8 lakh for an operator's own fleet, ₹7–18 lakh for a two-sided ride-hailing platform and ₹18–30 lakh and up for several cities. Maps and SMS charges, gateway fees, developer accounts and GST are extra. The figure is fixed in a written quote after discovery.
Pickup and drop with saved places and landmarks, bike, auto, cab and sedan classes with upfront fares, scheduled and rental rides, live tracking, ride OTP, masked calls and chat, trip sharing, SOS, ratings, UPI, cards, wallet and cash, and Tamil, Hindi or other Indian-language interfaces.
Online and offline toggle, timed ride offers, navigation hand-off to Google Maps, waiting and toll capture, earnings, incentives and daily or weekly payouts, battery-aware background location, and a document wallet for licence, RC and insurance renewals.
Captains indexed geospatially and scored on distance, heading, acceptance history and rating; radius expansion and re-offer when a captain declines; manual dispatch from the console for phone bookings and corporate trips.
Base fare, per-km and per-minute rates per vehicle class and city, minimum fare, waiting, night charges, tolls and airport entry, cancellation fees, surge by zone and time with caps, coupons and referral credits, all editable without an app release.
Ride OTP, one-tap SOS to emergency contacts and your control room, live trip sharing, number masking, women-safety options such as share-by-default, verified badges, trip replay for disputes, and helmet and insurance prompts for bike rides.
Licence, RC, insurance, Aadhaar eKYC with consent, PAN, bank penny-drop, selfie liveness and police verification, with an ops queue; payouts through RazorpayX or Cashfree with TDS where it applies, and commission or subscription billing for drivers.
Neither is a Chennai business, and we have not yet published a taxi client by name. We name clients only with written permission and quote outcomes in their words; the screens on this page are sample data. Ask for a walkthrough of the dispatch and payout code on the discovery call.
The same six steps run on every project we take in Coimbatore, whether it is a five-page website or a multi-vendor platform.
Your model (own fleet, open marketplace, or both), vehicle classes, launch city and zones, fare rules, payout model and the state rules you operate under; a fixed-scope written quote within 48 hours.
Clickable rider, captain and admin flows on your phone, tested with a few real drivers before any code.
Two-week sprints with TestFlight and Play internal builds, a weekly demo, GitHub access from day one, and time-to-match measured from the first working build.
Closed pilot with your first captains on real roads: GPS drift, battery, network dead zones, OTP and payout runs, with fixes before the public launch.
Listings, screenshots, background-location and data-safety declarations, and submission under your own Apple and Google accounts.
Monitored launch, a 30-day warranty, optional maintenance from ₹15,000 a month; code, store accounts, maps keys and cloud accounts stay in your name.
No. SpikeSecure has one office, at CHIL SEZ IT Park, Saravanampatti, Coimbatore. Chennai taxi apps are delivered remotely with weekly demos, plus an on-site kick-off, a field pilot and a launch visit where the project needs them; visits are itemised in the quote.
A booking app and dispatch console for your own fleet costs ₹4–8 lakh; adding an open captain app with matching, KYC and payouts takes it to ₹7–18 lakh. Maps and SMS charges, gateway fees, developer accounts, GST and travel for on-site visits are extra.
Yes, with rider and captain apps, helmet and insurance prompts and metro-feeder zones. Whether two-wheelers can carry paying riders is decided by state rules, so we make it configurable and ask you to confirm the current position with your lawyer before launch.
Yes. Tamil and English in both apps, Tamil push and SMS messages, voice prompts for ride offers and large tap targets for drivers on the move.
Yes. Pickup points, fixed or zone fares, waiting rules and airport entry charges are set in the console and shown on the rider's receipt.
We build ride-hailing platforms with the same kind of functions (rider and captain apps, matching, fare and surge rules, live tracking, SOS, KYC and payouts) under your own brand, design and fare rules. We do not copy any company's code, design or content. Ola, Uber and Rapido are trademarks of their respective owners and are named here only to describe the type of app.
Yes. The code is in your GitHub organisation from day one, and the apps are published under your own Apple and Google developer accounts, with maps, SMS, payment and cloud accounts in your name.
We cache places and geocoding results, request routes only when a trip needs them, use map-matching on the server rather than per-second API calls, and can use open-source routing (OSRM) for estimates. We model the monthly maps bill against your projected trips before the build.
A 30-minute discovery call and a fixed-scope quote — usually within 48 hours. No deck, no sales theatre.
