Uber is everyone’s private driver. From your iOS or Android device, customers can request a private town car pickup. Uber keeps customers updated about the status of their ride in real-time with text messages powered by Twilio.
Uber operates a global network of town cars, and a mobile experience that allows any customer to request a town car pickup. Customers are kept up to date with text messages as the status of their request changes - when a driver accepts the request, when the driver is less than a minute away, and if the ride has been cancelled for any reason.
Never leave a customer in the cold.
Fast delivery of customer notifications is critical when the transaction is real-time. A delivery delay of more than a minute can leave a customer standing in the rain waiting for a ride they didn’t know was cancelled. Likewise, if a customer’s town car has arrived and the customer hasn’t received the notification, the customer experience suffers. “We built the Uber experience without Twilio initially,” explains Travis Kalanick, CEO - “and the problem was, people were not getting the high-quality experience we were promising.
The kinds of problems we were seeing with other providers, we just haven’t seen with Twilio. I sleep easier, and my engineers sleep easier because we’re not dealing with situations where it’s taking 15 to 20 minutes for a text to be delivered.”
