Content Creation for a Global Ride-Hailing App

Aliyah Abdon

inDrive is a global ride-hailing app built on the principle of fairness and transparency. Unlike traditional taxi services, it empowers passengers to set their own fares, creating a peer-to-peer system where both riders and drivers agree on a fair price.
Today, inDrive operates in 888 cities across 48 countries, expanding its services beyond transportation to deliver honest, ethical, and community-driven solutions worldwide.

Objective

inDrive sought to strengthen its presence in the Philippines by connecting with Gen Z and Millennial commuters through content that feels fresh, relatable, and culturally in tune.
Their goal was simple yet strategic:
Attract new app users through humor-driven, everyday storytelling.
Reinforce credibility and the app’s “fair pricing” advantage.
Build brand trust by positioning inDrive as the smart, value-for-money choice for young Filipino commuters.

Creative Approach

Our creative direction centered on authentic humor and real-world relatability, telling stories that mirror the daily experiences of Filipino commuters while reinforcing inDrive’s unique value.
We leveraged three key strategies:
Humor & Relatability: Everyday commuting scenarios transformed into lighthearted, shareable skits.
Viral Trends & Buzz-Driven Campaigns: Tapping into trending sounds, challenges, and local humor to boost visibility.
Storytelling & Local Insight: Incorporating Filipino slang, humor, and cultural nuances to make the content feel native. not like an ad.
This approach turned each post into a micro-story, subtly educating viewers about the brand’s benefits while entertaining them.
