Flytta, a startup by students of Hindustan University, is an online relocation portal. The idea of the company was suggested by two school students who faced a lot of problems when their parents relocated from one place to another. Started with the tagline “Migrate with Ease,” Gokulavasan Murali, chief technology officer of Flytta, and his team of developers have developed a cognitive algorithm which assists the users to be mapped to respective services of their preference. The portal currently features assistance for finding accommodation, schools, colleges, packers and movers, hospitals, food, groceries and daily needs. A relocation forum is also being developed which helps organisations, service providers and users to interact and share their relocation stories.

“Post the Chennai floods, many are slowly relocating to safer and eco-friendly zones in Chennai. This is where Flytta makes a difference and helps people,” says Rahul Kanuganti, chief operations officer.

The team includes Abhijith Ajay, business analyst; Anu.S.Menon, migration analyst; Rishab Gill, marketing analyst; Thomas Cherian, the little dev ; Sabri, business management intern; Ajjeet Verghese, smart data process intern and Dr. M. K. Badri Narayanan, associate prof., School of Management Sciences, coordinator HTBI&HEIC, Hindustan University.
