Sakay's Covid 19 Response

Information

We're big believers in the value of information-- the entire point of Sakay is to deliver information about public transport to commuters. We like passing information to our users, and we like doing it fast. But when the COVID-19 Quarantine hit, we were delivering information about vehicles that didn't run, to commuters that weren't allowed to go to work. Here's how we fixed that, and got further than we expected.

SakaySakay provides the most accurate and efficient commuting directions in Metro Manila. We offer smart directions to public transportation users by mixing both formal (buses and trains) and informal (jeepneys, tuktuks, matatus, trikes, etc...) modes, which makes our directions better than Google Maps and others. Sakay also doesn’t just show you directions — it also gives you a fare estimate and your estimated time of arrival. Sakay is the first Filipino startup to get into Betatron, a Hong Kong-based startup accelerator with an acceptance rate of 0.6%. Sakay is available on the web, and for download on the App Store and on Google Play.
