It shows the stock price falling, definitely biased!

It’s not because of it lol 
 For several stocks it fails to show the graph, reasons unknown

But not specific to Ola, definitely 
  
 To think that Google cares enough about Ola to alter its results is a bit too far ahead

Corporate Strategist

Every search query goes through an intent detector, based on that they map these cards, sometimes it fails to give the indication and we don't see it!

Search for zomato share price you get a good graph but that's isn't the seen for ola. 

Seems like google is suppressing Ola results due to the maps scene. 

Lawyers can Ola sue Google? Or can we involve CCI. 

Google should be held responsible here.

Google starting to show bias in results.

Lately Ola's founder Bhavish has been discontinuing their dependencies on foreign products ranging from their own cloud servers to their own GPT's which people are specualting is just a wrapper over ChatGPT and lately launched their own Ola Maps which is itself a wrapper over OpenStreetMap. 

Will this benefit Indian Companies to compete with the global ones or will it just die down eventually. Ola folks can shed some light on it. 😁

What's your opinion on Ola's nationifacation of their products.

MapMyIndia has filed a lawsuit against Ola Electric for allegedly stealing company data to create Ola Maps

- Ola Maps' rates for higher volumes are claimed to be 50% of Google's reduced prices, with additional incentives for long-term commitments.

Another SH incident has come up at InMobi - this is getting even worse :/

Welcome to Product Managers's Private Community

You type something niche and it forces you to select a keyword from their database that is either irrelevant or increases friction.

For example, when you type pineapple crumble cheesecake, it'll force you to select search results for pineapple cheesecake. Or when you type popping boba tea, it'll show you boba tea. 

I don't know what they are trying to achieve from this.

Can someone explain to me why Zomato's search is so broken

- The Central Consumer Protection Authority (CCPA) has issued a show cause notice to Ola Electric.

Ola Electric Receives Show Cause Notice from CCPA

Hey, any Blinkit employees here who can tell us how the company is going to handle the crisis at hand?? With so many dark stores closing and 2500+ delivery partners on strike??

Trouble brewing @ Blinkit

Damn, let me tell you how Ola has messed up the auto rickshaw industry! They came in acting all fancy, promising convenience and fair prices. But what do we get? Overcharging like crazy! Their surge pricing during peak hours is a complete rip-off. They take advantage of our desperation and squeeze every penny out of us. And who suffers the most? The hardworking folks who rely on auto rickshaws every day.

But it doesn't stop there. Ola's profiteering tactics have destroyed the earning potential of auto rickshaw drivers. They used to have control over their fares and make a decent living. Now, Ola dictates the prices and leaves the drivers scraping for scraps. It's just not fair! They've disrupted the whole system, and not in a good way. The drivers are struggling, and we passengers are getting ripped off left and right. Ola, you've turned a once reliable and affordable mode of transportation into a nightmare. Shame on you!

Ola didn't disrupt , it destroyed

This is based on an analysis of 24 K reviews on iPhone & Android phones between Jan to Nov 2023 conducted by Clootrack. The results though look a lot skewed as 
Zomato outperforms Swiggy by 3-4X in every parameter, How do you look at these results, Do you agree with this analysis?

Is this an effect of Public Listing?

This guy gets a lot of shit on linkedin, don’t know him personally so not sure if rightly so or not. 

People in Ola, how’s this whole make tech in india thing working out?

Is this even working? Or just another marketing gimmick?

OLA unveiled Ola maps lol. Any idea which maps api they’re using now and calling it their own for marketing purposes?

So which Maps api did they make a wrapper for?

Hardware engineer

Ola founder said that they used to have 100 Cr bill for Google maps. Does this sound realistic?

What are other options apart from Google maps?

100 Cr Google Maps Bill

- Ola is entering the $5-billion quick commerce market, competing with Blinkit, Swiggy Instamart, Zepto, and Flipkart Minute.
- At its 'Sankalp' event, Ola explained its dark store concept, aiming to cut order processing time from four minutes to under one minute using automation.
- The quick commerce sector has become indispensable, with rapid growth since 2021, according to UBS analysts.
- Blinkit has been crucial to Zomato's growth, while Zepto is raising $1 billion, showing strong investor confidence.
- Ola's Bhavish Aggarwal plans to use robots in dark stores, unlike competitors who rely on human labor.
