About RoadMate
Roadside help, easier to trust.
An early-stage marketplace connecting vehicle owners with independent roadside service providers in India.
Our mission
To make roadside assistance easier to access, more transparent and more convenient for vehicle owners.
The problem
Vehicle breakdowns are unpredictable. Finding trusted assistance can involve multiple calls, uncertain waiting times and unclear pricing.
Our solution
RoadMate brings vehicle owners and independent roadside service providers together through a digital marketplace. Customers describe the problem once, see an estimate and follow the booking. Partners get requests that match their skills and area.
Our business model
How RoadMate earns
RoadMate earns through service commissions, dispatch fees, subscriptions, workshop referrals and potential future business partnerships. It does not own vehicles or workshops, so most of each payment goes to the partner who did the work.

Worked example: a ₹500 service
| Line | At 15% | At 20% |
|---|---|---|
| Commission | ₹75 | ₹100 |
| Dispatch fee | ₹40 | ₹40 |
| Platform revenue | ₹115 | ₹140 |
| Partner payout | ₹425 | ₹400 |
Platform revenue is shown before expenses and applicable taxes. It is not profit. Contribution margin subtracts variable costs such as payment fees and support. Net profit also subtracts fixed costs.
Our approach
Start small, grow carefully
Start with a concentrated local service area, establish a dependable partner network, validate customer demand and expand gradually.
One service area
Recruit and verify enough partners to cover it reliably.
Prove demand
Measure bookings, fulfilment and repeat use before spending on growth.
Expand
Add nearby areas, then fleet and insurer partnerships.
