How Bangalore moves

About me

The person behind the little city.

01Who I am

I'm Alabhya, an AI-native product manager. I love building side quests over the weekend and brainstorming ideas with friends.

When I'm not working, I'm mostly looking after my cat, Bailey.

02Why I made this

It started as a fun experiment to try with our community. Almost every day, my ride from HSR Layout to Indiranagar takes about an hour each way. I wanted to see whether other people face the same thing, and to understand the wider patterns in how this city travels.

And if I switch companies next, maybe this gives me a reference for where not to work. Ha.

03About the data

Everything on the map is illustrative. Places are stylized and not to scale, and the commutes are whatever you and other visitors type in, not real traffic data. It's a toy for thinking about how a city breathes, not a map to plan a trip with.

04Say hello

Questions, ideas or bugs go on the support page. You can also find me on LinkedIn.
