And Via is like if Uber wanted to dismantle public transport.
Knowing how they are using the data from citymapper, I've since uninstalled it.
...no?
Via is primarily SaaS where their customers are cities themselves to help digitize and optimize their public transit networks. You might be thinking of: at one point in time and in some places, Via operated ride shares, but that's not their main business and they discontinued much of that during the pandemic.
The citymapper acquisition notes really fit Via's strategy of being able to help cities unify and optimize transit infrastructure.
