The Opportunity

Dima Hasao is stunning.
Getting around it isn't.

Haflong, Jatinga, Umrangso, Maibang and Panimoor draw visitors every season — yet transport is negotiated at roadsides and stays are booked over phone calls. One platform closes both gaps.

01
No organised cab network

Fares are negotiated on the spot; no metering, no driver verification, no receipts, no safety trail for tourists on hill roads.

02
Resorts & homestays are invisible online

Excellent Council-run bungalows, eco-resorts and Dimasa homestays have no live inventory, no photos, no instant confirmation.

03
Trips are stitched manually

A traveller books a cab from one number, a room from another, a guide from a third — with no single itinerary or accountability.

04
No revenue visibility for the Council

Tourism footfall, occupancy and transport earnings are untracked, making planning and local-livelihood policy guesswork.

The Answer

One combined super-app for the hills.

DIMA YATRA fuses a real-time cab-hailing engine with a full hotel & resort marketplace, then lets a traveller bundle both into one bookable trip — with the Autonomous Council as the trust layer.

  • Ride engine — live GPS dispatch, hill-terrain fare matrix, verified drivers, SOS & trip sharing.
  • Stay engine — live room inventory, rich galleries, instant confirmation, dynamic seasonal pricing.
  • Combo engine — the differentiator: cab + stay + local guide as one cart, one payment, one itinerary.
  • Council console — verification, tourism analytics, permits and local-earnings dashboards.
  • Built for low network — offline-first caching, SMS fallback, queued sync across Mahur–Umrangso dead zones.
The Platform

One hill-native product.

Everything travellers already understand from Ola/Uber and MakeMyTrip — rebuilt around Dima Hasao's terrain, seasons, culture and Council governance.
