Despite there being a plethora of taxis driving around New York or any big city, hailing a cab can still be frustrating, which is where the ZabKab app comes in. ZabKab will take the frustration out of hailing a taxi by ensuring that potential passengers are seen by drivers.

Available for both passengers and drivers, ZabKab allows users to hail cabs directly via their mobile phones with the simple tap of a button, while at the same time helps drivers find out where riders are located. When you use the app, a map pops up that shows the real-time location of taxis nearby, and your request for a cab will be sent to participating taxi drivers in the area. The app also allows users to input details such as the number of people in their party or whether they need a wheelchair-accessible cab.

2. Real-time Location Tracking - ZabKab's app utilizes real-time location tracking to provide users with accurate information about nearby taxis.
3. Customized Taxi Requests - ZabKab's app allows users to input specific details such as the number of people in their party or their need for a wheelchair-accessible cab.
Industry Implications

2. Mobile App Development - The mobile app development industry can explore new opportunities in creating efficient taxi hailing apps with real-time location tracking and customizable features.
3. Ride-hailing Services - Ride-hailing services can consider integrating ZabKab's features into their existing platforms to improve the efficiency of their operations and enhance user satisfaction.
