About Cityflo Cityflo is a daily commute company that provides a comfortable, stress-free travel experience for corporate professionals, as an alternative to driving. With premium buses, a simple app, and caring customer service, our passengers get the luxury of time in their busy schedules — where they can read their book, watch Netflix, nap, or simply soak in the city's view. We're bringing joy back to commuting and turning around urban traffic woes in a big way.

Today, we run 650 buses and log 35000 daily bookings. After establishing strong product-market fit and building a profitable business in Mumbai, we’ve expanded services to Hyderabad & Delhi, where the commute problem is as urgent and exciting. Over the next 2 years, we plan to scale to 1000 buses and 100,000 daily bookings across all the cities.
