Why now

Out-of-home is going digital, and India rides in cabs

Brands want OOH reach with digital accountability. India’s ride-hail, airport and goods fleets carry millions of captive passengers every day, yet the back seat is still unmonetised.

1

Captive, high-dwell audience

20 to 45 minutes per ride at arm’s length, with no skip button: attention billboards can’t buy.

2

Self-serve and measurable

Brands book, pay instantly by UPI or card and track GPS-backed playouts and QR scans from one console.

3

Driver-first supply

Drivers earn from campaigns with a company-owned tablet, digital KYC and an e-signed agreement, so onboarding scales city by city.

4

AI-assisted creative

Vira drafts Hindi/English in-cab creatives from a brand’s website, cutting time-to-launch for SMEs.

Business model
