WHAT I LIKE

Core Idea – Booking train tickets is a big market and doing this online makes the process easier and more efficient.

Ease of Use – The easier the process is for users, the more habit forming it becomes.

Service for Businesses – The startup offers a service to businesses where they can book railway tickets and manage these bookings of their employees.

Scalable – The startup can scale by tying up with railway networks of different countries.

CONCERNS

Railway Companies – Since most trains are owned by the Government in most countries, they can decide to sell directly to customers to save on the margins distributed.
