Inside karoot: the tech that moves people
summary
Karut routes a tap through an API gateway, firewalls, load balancers and microservices to a real-time intelligence engine that uses geospatial indexing and continuous driver tracking to pick and reassign drivers in milliseconds; dispatch logic retries in rounds (example: skip three prior decliners), IVR with call masking and short message threads handle urban meetups, and payments are processed after the trip with card, Google Pay, Apple Pay or cash. Monitoring, analytics and incentives link back to driver availability and support workflows.
