Bangalore (Karnataka) [India], April 23: In a world where top-tier colleges like IITs and IIMs dominate startup success stories, Scootev stands as a revolutionary exception. Built entirely by gig workers, for gig workers, Scootev has disrupted the electric mobility space, proving that real talent lies on the streets, not just in boardrooms. With a Rs100 crore valuation and a strong fleet of over 3,000 active e-bikes, this Bangalore-based company is empowering thousands of gig workers, giving them not just jobs, but a future.
Founded by Murad Khan, Scootev is unlike any other startup in India. No Ivy League degrees, no fancy MBAs–just pure grit, hard work, and a belief in the power of people who drive the economy every single day.
“Scootev is not just a business–it’s a movement. We have given gig workers more than just a platform; we have given them ownership, leadership, and a real chance to change their lives. This company belongs to them,” said Murad Khan, Founder of Scootev.
Built by Gig Workers, Powered by Dreams
From top management to operations, every leader at Scootev has risen from the gig workforce. The decision-makers are the same people who once navigated the city on two wheels, making deliveries, running errands, and hustling for their next ride. This unique model has created an ecosystem where gig workers are not just employees–they are partners, leaders, and visionaries shaping the future of electric mobility.
With over 3,000 gig workers actively riding with Scootev, the company is helping thousands of families earn a stable income, breaking barriers, and challenging the traditional corporate hierarchy.
A Platform for Growth, Not Just Employment
Unlike other companies that treat gig workers as temporary labor, Scootev provides long-term growth opportunities. Workers who join as riders can climb the ladder to become fleet managers, operational heads, and even part of the leadership team.
“We don’t see degrees. We see potential. If you can hustle, if you can dream big, Scootev is your home,” said one of the gig workers who is now leading an operations team in Bangalore.
The impact of Scootev goes beyond just jobs–it has uplifted entire families, provided financial stability, and created a strong, close-knit community of hardworking individuals who now have a voice in a sector that has long overlooked them.
Raising Funds to Expand the Gig Worker Revolution
Scootev’s Rs100 crore valuation and upcoming funding round will help expand its fleet, improve infrastructure, and create even more opportunities for gig workers to step into leadership roles.
This is not just another EV company. This is a revolution born from the streets of Bangalore–built by gig workers, run by gig workers, and growing for gig workers. No IIT, no IIM–just real people, real stories, and real impact.
