Voice Recognition Patent *6316

A unique IVR system that identifies caller location without GPS, sends SMS with driver details, vehicle info, ministry-approved pricing, and ETA — all without an app. A unique solution for customers without smartphones. This system was covered by BHOL and Kikar HaShabbat.

Finance Minister's Backing

Bezalel Smotrich, the Finance Minister, personally requested acceleration of Take Me's carpooling system adapted for the Haredi community — a sign of institutional recognition of the public value.

In his own words

״Worldwide, transportation became a tap-and-go service. In the Haredi sector — with limited smartphone and internet access — it became a much harder challenge. We're pioneers of digital accessibility for the community.״
