A Chennai startup’s road lounges give travellers access to workstations.
What’s it about? Chennai-based tech startup DozPass Technologies has an app where travellers get membership-driven access to railway and airport lounges. It recently opened its own lounge on the Chennai-Salem highway at Tindivannam. The idea is to help reduce hassle on long road trips.
- Spread over 1,800 sq feet, the lounge has clean toilets, a food and coffee section, and a mother’s room facility. For those who need to catch up on work, there are soundproof spaces for calls and separate workstations.
- The company currently has two memberships. One is free and valid for three months. The other costs ₹999 giving users 150 hours of access.
Future plans: The company wants to open similar lounges in other parts of the country. Plans are afoot for the Coimbatore-Salem highway, between Madurai and Tirunelveli, and Tiruchi and Kumbakonam.
