The Reality

The Rickshaw Problem

Dhaka has over 4 million unregistered rickshaws. The current informal system is broken, unsafe, and environmentally damaging.

Traffic Congestion

Random stopping, slow speeds, and sheer volume clog arterial roads daily.

Expensive Fares

Fares spike unpredictably during rain, rush hour, or at the driver's whim.

Safety Concerns

No safety standards. Unlicensed, untrained drivers operating informally.

Urban Disorder

Lack of digital integration prevents data-driven city planning and optimization.

Enter
Cholo.

We are replacing chaos with order. Cholo is a structured, app-based ecosystem designed to provide predictable, safe, and clean transport.

No Random Stops.
Micro-Stations Only.

To maintain urban order and speed, Cholo operates on a designated stop system. You cannot hail a Cholo from anywhere; you walk a short distance to a micro-station.

Select Destination

Open the app and input where you want to go.

Board & Pay Digitally

Vehicle arrives predictably. Pay via bKash, Nagad, or in-app wallet based on zone pricing.

Rule: Drop-off must also be a designated stop. This ensures speed, safety, and traffic discipline.
