ABOUT US
If you're one of 30 million Americans without a car, trip planning is probably a pain. It's difficult enough to find even one combination of planes, trains and buses that will get you to Podunksville, USA to visit Aunt Sally, never mind worrying about finding the cheapest or fastest way to get there. And what if you have to find rest stops, hotels, en-route attractions?
Kakeya aims to be the world's first comprehensive solution for trip planning. Want the fastest way to get there? No problem. Cheapest? Sure thing. Want to plan a trip with your friends? On your phone? Visit some places on the way? We can take care of it. Kakeya's databases hold the most comprehensive collection of transportation data, amalgamated from flight, bus and train companies countrywide. Made by college students, for college students, Kakeya is your one-stop destination for travel!
