The Difference
Built for rural India, not copied from cities
Other platforms are designed for metros and adapted (poorly) to rural areas. We're built from the ground up for how rural transport actually works.
Other Platforms
- High commission from drivers
- Surge pricing during high demand
- Digital-first payments
- Drivers from anywhere
- Weekly payouts
- Needs constant internet
1km
- Fair, low commission
- No surge on standard rides
- Cash-first, we handle the rest
- Local drivers you can trust
- Fast payouts
- Works on patchy networks
For Providers
Drivers & Fleet Operators
Whether you drive one auto or manage ten tempos, 1KM gives you a fair deal. Low commission means more stays with you. Grow from driver to fleet owner to zone admin.
Who It's For
Real people, real needs
We're building for the farmer, the family, the shop owner, the distributor — anyone who needs reliable transport in rural India.
The Farmer
Raman has 300kg of tomatoes ready for the Tuesday mandi. He needs them there by 7 AM or prices drop. Today he calls three drivers hoping one is free.
The Family
Kavitha needs to take her mother to the district hospital for a checkup. It's 15km away. The bus takes two hours with connections.
The Shop Owner
Meena runs a provisions store. She sources from the wholesale market twice a week. Each trip means closing her shop for half a day.
The Distributor
Lakshmi supplies 40 shops across 8 villages. She needs 5 vehicles tomorrow morning. Today she makes 15 phone calls to arrange it.
How We Operate
Zone by zone, trust by trust
We don't launch everywhere at once. We build one zone at a time — typically a taluk or cluster of villages — until it works well before expanding.
Driver-Led Leadership
Not a hired manager — a top-performing driver who earned the role through excellence. They still drive, they know the roads, and they have skin in the game.
Drivers & Fleet Operators
Individual drivers and multi-vehicle operators, all locally vetted. Whether you need one auto or five tempos.
Local Pricing
Fares calibrated to local economics — fuel costs, distances, conditions. Fair for customers, sustainable for providers.
Real Support
Problem? Call the zone lead who speaks your language and knows your situation. Not a call center in another city.
Voice-First AI
Just call. AI handles the rest.
No smartphone? No problem. Book rides, register as a driver, accept jobs — all through a simple phone call. Our AI speaks your language and works 24/7.
The insight: AI replaces call centers and coordinators — not drivers. Technology eliminates overhead, so the service can exist where it couldn't before.
