WiFi That Keeps Passengers Coming Back
Here's what we've learned: 73% of people would use public transit more if it had good WiFi. Give them that, and you'll see ridership climb by up to 23%. Plus, you can save over $100K compared to building your own system - and even make money from ads on your login page. The best part? You can roll this out across thousands of vehicles in days, not months.
Starts at just $10/access point/month (billed annually) - works with your current hardware, no setup fees

Got Questions? We've Got Answers
Here's what transit operators usually want to know
Can you handle thousands of people at once?
Absolutely. Our cloud setup scales automatically when things get busy - so even during rush hour, everyone gets a solid connection without slowdowns.
Will it work with our current access points?
Most likely, yes. We work with gear from Cisco, Aruba, Ruckus, Ubiquiti, and most other major brands. You won't need to replace your hardware.
What happens when passengers move around?
They stay connected. As they walk from the platform to the train or between terminals, the handoff happens automatically. No reconnecting needed.
How do you stop one person from hogging all the bandwidth?
You set the rules. We give you controls for per-user limits, fair usage policies, and priority settings so everyone gets a decent connection.
What kind of data can I see?
Lots. You'll get real-time info on how many people are connected, how long they stay, when it's busiest, what devices they're using, and how they move through your network. Need to pull this data into another system? We've got an API for that.
How long until we're up and running?
Usually the same day. You just point your access points to our RADIUS servers, set up your login page, and you're good to go.
