To help simplify your decision-making, we’ve highlighted five key reasons why Mosaiq stands out from the competition. These are the features and benefits that users consistently tell us set Mosaiq apart, delivering real value to public transit authorities and operators. Built by people with hands-on experience in public transit, we understand the industry’s unique challenges firsthand. We actively engage with users to deepen that understanding, ensuring Mosaiq continuously evolves to meet emerging needs. While there are many reasons to choose the Mosaiq Transit Intelligence Suite, these five key areas are the most impactful.

1. Unified data for actionable insights

Data is the backbone of transit optimisation. Siloed or incomplete information can hinder – or even derail – network improvements. Mosaiq’s cloud-based platform brings together data from multiple sources to create a single source of truth for your transit network.

With Mosaiq Insights, transit professionals can analyse operations at both macro and micro levels – from overall network efficiency to specific route performance, all the way down to individual stops. The platform provides a clear, actionable picture of your transit network’s health.

Key benefits:

  • Seamless integration with existing data systems.
  • Powerful analytics tools to identify trends, bottlenecks, and opportunities.
  • Enhanced collaboration across teams using unified data sets.

2. Real operational visibility

Timely data is a game-changer when it comes to network improvement. Mosaiq’s Insights, Live, and Go tools provide unparalleled visibility into day-to-day operations.

  • Mosaiq Insights offers deep analytics on the health of your network.
  • Mosaiq Go provides a mobile app for bus drivers, delivering real-time trip and fleet data, reducing the need for onboard hardware.
  • Mosaiq Live gives operators a bird’s-eye view of journey data, ensuring smoother service delivery with the ability to quickly identify and address issues.

Why it matters:

  • Boosts operational efficiency with meaningful adjustments.
  • Reduces downtime and improves service reliability.
  • Offers a cost-effective approach to data collection.

3. Cost-effective and scalable

Budget constraints are a reality for public transit operators and authorities. Mosaiq’s modular approach allows you to scale up as your needs grow and all team members can access the suite for free. Start with the core tools within Mosaiq Insights, then expand into additional features as your network evolves.

Advantages:

  • No incremental charges for additional users
  • Flexible implementation that aligns with your budget.
  • Scalable modules that grow with your transit network.

This includes full access to the Mosaiq Transit Intelligence Suite tools, including Mosaiq Insights, Mosaiq Live, and Mosaiq Go. This flexible, cost-effective structure allows you to enhance your network at a pace that fits your budget.
