Our launch of RailYatri Insights addresses to the growing need for Big Data Analysis in order to uncover hidden yet useful information which train travelers in India can effectively utilize, ” says Manish Rathi, Co-founder and CEO, RailYatri.in.
RailYatri Insights is based on the data from more than 50 million travelers over the last few years across 8000 train stations and more than 2000 train routes.
