Via Transportation, Inc. is a technology company that provides software as a service (SaaS) and operations to improve public transportation networks for cities, transit agencies, schools and universities, healthcare providers, and corporations around the world. Via offers fully managed transit services as well as transportation planning tools, consulting services, operational support, and navigation.[1][2][3][4]

Founded in 2012, Via is headquartered in New York City with offices around the world.[5] As of March 2024, Via serves more than 700 global partners such as King County Metro in Seattle, Transport for London, Transport for New South Wales in Australia, and Berliner Verkehrsbetriebe in Germany.[6][7][8][9][10][11]

Via focuses on making transportation more equitable and accessible for all populations including paratransit riders, school-aged children, elderly populations, and low income riders.

The company defined the TransitTech category and is the global leader in on-demand microtransit services that fit into a city’s existing transportation system.[12][13][14]

History

Founding and early years

Daniel Ramot and Oren Shoval co-founded Via in 2012.[15] The company began as a ridesharing service on New York's Upper East Side before expanding citywide.[16][17][18][19][20] Commuters could book a shared ride for $5. Eventually the consumer business expanded to Washington D.C., Chicago, London, and Amsterdam.[21][22][23][24][25]

In 2017, the company began offering its software and operational support to municipalities and transit agencies. Partners could buy Via’s software to use as their own white labeled transportation service, or they could have Via handle operations as well, including vehicle fleets, drivers, and on-the-ground management and support staff.[26][27]

Product Portfolio

Microtransit

Microtransit is tech-enabled shared transportation where routing algorithms use real-time, on-the-ground information to group passengers into shared rides. Routes are dynamic; “schedules” shift based on rider demand; and vehicles range in size from vans to shuttles, or buses, depending on what’s needed for the system.[56]

Paratransit

Paratransit is accessible, door-to-door transportation for people with disabilities, typically delivered by vans or minibuses. In the United States, the ADA mandates that paratransit is offered within ¾ miles of any fixed-route bus line or train station.[57] Via’s paratransit software can improve paratransit for both riders and operators by increasing on-time performance, reducing reliance on manual scheduling, and lowering overall cost-per-trip.[58]

Student transit

Via created a fully integrated and customizable software suite for student transportation, with route planning, a central operations console for administrators, and applications for caregivers, drivers, and educators. The software includes features like real-time bus tracking, continuously updated ETAs, and configurable alerts to help track users.[59]

Remix

In 2021, Via acquired Remix, which had built a suite of transit planning tools used by transit agencies across the United States and internationally.[60] The Remix suite now includes tools for fixed-route service planning, on-demand microtransit planning, fixed-route scheduling and rostering, and street planning.[61]

Transit consulting

Via has an in-house consulting practice, Via Strategies, that specializes in transit planning for tech-enabled and multimodal transit networks. Via Strategies works with city governments, transit agencies, state departments of transportation, and other transit clients on bus network redesigns, feasibility studies, and microtransit planning.[62]

Corporate and campus shuttles

Using microtransit technology, Via operates student and employee shuttles at universities and on corporate campuses around the world. Clients include Harvard University, Northwestern University, LinkedIn, Google, and BASF.[63]

Health transportation

Via’s software supports non-emergency medical transportation, often with the same fleet of vehicles already in use for paratransit or microtransit services. Clients are transit agencies, city governments, and hospital systems.[64]

Citymapper
