Via Analytics careers

"Bus bunching" is a frustrating pain point for transit agencies and their passengers. Buses gradually catch up with each other, arriving at stops in groups, rather than neatly spaced along the route as intended by the operating agencies.

Via's core product, Tempo, stops bus bunching before it starts. We do this by deploying networked Android tablets that provide drivers with simple visual guidance based on the real-time locations of other vehicles in the system. Tempo is designed to optimize a combination of spacing between vehicles and overall system speed.

We can demonstrate that using Tempo enables transit agencies to provide better service with fewer vehicles, resulting in substantial benefit to agencies and passengers alike.

Tempo is part of a suite of complementary products:
Viz, an analytics reporting platform designed for transparency
Vault, a database-as-a-service designed for robust cloud storage
Ecovia, real-time engine feedback designed to save fuel
