| Why is this startup hot? |
| Its hot because it serves those very active Bangaloreans who like to explore the city and want to indulge in activities. Being one such Bangalorean I always wanted such a website. Since there wasn't one, I had to build one myself :) |

| What keeps the team awake at night? |
| Passion to deliver something good to the community.
