About

Via is aiming to enhance public mobility systems and optimize networks of various transportation modes worldwide, including shuttles, buses, accessible vehicles, school buses, and autonomous vehicles.

The company’s platform employs algorithms to customize ride-sharing routes based on passenger requirements. Via’s technology enables larger shared taxis to pick up commuters from designated stops and to alter routes instantly in response to passenger demand, traffic congestion, and other relevant factors.

Via offers its technology to cities, transportation authorities, school districts, universities, and private entities to help them establish their technology-based transportation networks. The company collaborates with over 400 local governments across more than 20 countries worldwide.
