Abstract
This paper introduces QuickGo, a web-based application designed to enable real-time cab fare comparison across multiple providers, including Uber and Ola, by leveraging web scraping and Google Maps API integration. Unlike existing solutions that restrict fare access to individual cab services, QuickGo aggregates pricing data across providers, promoting transparency and empowering users to make economical travel decisions. In testing, QuickGo achieved over 95% accuracy in fare retrieval with a latency of less than 3 seconds per request, demonstrating the effectiveness of a combined approach using web scraping, error handling, and responsive design. This work contributes to the field of urban transportation solutions by overcoming typical data accessibility barriers in fare comparison platforms.
