Chalo, a leader in digitizing public transport with innovations like live bus tracking, mobile ticketing, and smart travel cards, previously faced performance bottlenecks, high operational costs, and scalability issues due to an insufficient unified data strategy. Quantiphi addressed these challenges by migrating Chalo’s data to Snowflake’s AI Data Cloud, leveraging its generative AI accelerator, Codeaira, to achieve a nearly 50% faster migration. “In just two months, we were live and fully functional on the new platform, delivering greater value to our customers,” said Atmesh Mishra, Chalo’s AVP of Platform.
The partnership enables Chalo to process vast transit data securely, improving fleet management and decision-making. “By combining our expertise with Snowflake’s powerful data platform, we helped Chalo build a scalable and efficient data ecosystem,” said Bhaskar Kalita, Quantiphi’s Executive Sponsor and Global Head of Financial Services and Insurance. The modernized infrastructure supports real-time monitoring, sending alerts for delays and optimizing routes, which enhances user experiences through personalized services and demand forecasting.
Snowflake’s AI Data Cloud provides a robust foundation for Chalo’s rapid expansion, handling data from 90 cities globally. “Our collaboration with Chalo has enabled it to democratize data and help its teams make quick data-driven decisions,” said Dhiraj Narang, Snowflake’s Director of Partnerships, India. The platform’s scalability lays the groundwork for future AI innovations, such as predictive analytics for fleet maintenance and dynamic pricing models, positioning Chalo to lead in smart mobility.
This collaboration aligns with broader trends in smart transportation, as seen in Malaysia’s 2025 Budget initiatives for AI-driven transport solutions, which reduced congestion by 40% and CO2 emissions by 25% in studied cities. Chalo’s transformation, backed by Quantiphi’s Elite Snowflake Partner status and prior successes like Pharmarack’s data modernization, underscores the power of strategic partnerships in driving industry innovation. The project’s success, completed in just two months, highlights Quantiphi’s expertise, recognized by awards like the 2023 Snowflake APJ Regional System Integrator Innovation Partner.
By leveraging Snowflake’s AI capabilities and Quantiphi’s Codeaira, Chalo has transformed public transport operations, delivering measurable efficiency gains and setting a new standard for data-driven mobility solutions in India and beyond.
