Introducing CortexMaps
A 140× lower bill on your maps platform.
Keep the live map you already run — CortexMaps takes the parts that cost you the most, from accurate positioning to arrival times to live location, off the meter and onto infrastructure you own.

01 Measured, not modeled
A live fleet.
Zero per-trip bill.
Six months of real traffic — what we paid, beside the same workload on a commercial maps platform.

- 1.2M
- arrival-time lookups
- 15M
- locations processed
- 6 mo
- running non-stop
What we paid, all in
₹32,600≈ $385
Six months, every cost included: a few million address lookups (₹11,000) plus running our own maps engine (₹3,600 a month). No per-trip charges on top.
Same workload, a commercial maps platform
≈ $53,500≈ ₹45 lakh
List price for the identical six months of positioning, arrival times, and address lookups.
≈ $53,000 not spent — a bill 140× lower for the same live map, all costs in.
Volumes measured from the fleet’s own logs and projected across six months; our figure includes the servers that run the maps engine. A commercial platform would apply 2025 list prices — about $10 per 1,000 position fixes and $5 per 1,000 arrival and address lookups — to the same measured workload. Rupee amounts at roughly ₹85 to the dollar.
02 Why
The map is the free part.
The tracking isn’t.
-
01 The cost
Every location update becomes a bill.
Placing a vehicle on the map, working out how far and how long, and planning the route are each charged per request. The price climbs with every rider you add and every mile they cover — the one line on a live fleet that never stops growing.
-
02 The shift
Showing the map is already free.
On a phone, the map itself costs nothing to display. The spend is everything layered on top — the live, moving, accurate part — and that layer is exactly what you can bring in-house.
-
03 The result
Live tracking you run and own.
Your own engine handles the positioning, the arrival times, and the live feed. The work that used to be billed per request now runs on infrastructure you control — at a cost that no longer grows with every mile.
03 How it flows
From the road to the screen.
One engine you own.
-
01 On the road
A light tracker on the driver’s device records where they are — accurately, and even while the app sits in their pocket.
-
02 Your engine
Your own engine corrects each position onto the road and readies it to share — and keeps working even when the signal is weak.
-
03 Live
Every position goes out to every screen watching, the instant it moves — and stops the moment the trip ends.
-
04 On the screen
Your apps and dashboards show a smooth, moving marker and its trail on the map you already use.
04 What’s inside
Everything the live map needs.
Nothing metered.
-
Road-accurate positions
Raw location wanders. CortexMaps corrects every point onto the actual road and works harder on its own when the signal is poor — so the marker never drifts into a building or off the coast.
-
Arrival times & distances
How far, how long, and in what order to visit each stop — worked out by your own engine, never charged to you per lookup.
-
Live on every screen
One live feed carries every position to thousands of apps and dashboards at once, and reconnects on its own if a phone drops off.
-
Lifelike movement
Occasional location updates become a fluid, turning marker and a trailing path — the hardest part of a tracking screen, already handled.
-
Addresses, resolved once
Look up a place once and it is remembered, so the same address is never paid for twice.
-
Own your data
The whole thing runs in your cloud. Location trails and live feeds never leave your infrastructure — no outside tracking service in the path.
05 How you run it
Yours to host.
Yours to keep.
-
Runs in your cloud
Deploy the whole thing inside your own infrastructure from a single setup. Nothing leaves your walls.
-
Bring your own map
Keep the map your users already see. CortexMaps sits underneath — you change what costs you, not what they look at.
-
Any city, any country
Cover one neighbourhood or a whole country. No per-region licence, no per-trip fee.
