Case Studies
Over 10 new trippers were added to address early-morning crowding in an efficient, cost-effective way.
“Transify’s induced demand for more scheduling refinements due to the ease of pulling actual run time data. This leads to better run times matching actual conditions by hour to the benefit of the transit customer.”
From network redesigns to five-year business plans, we’ve partnered with transit agencies in the US and Canada through our partnerships with Left Turn Right Turn, Bolton & Menk, and our transit data consulting service.
How Barrie Transit Uses Transify
One of the fastest growing cities in Canada, the City of Barrie, Ontario has launched Phase One of their Transit Vision Network, resulting in a 14% increase in ridership to over 14,000 daily weekday boardings.
Following the launch, Barrie Transit staff refined the runtimes of all their new routes within just a few weeks, additionally adjusting on-demand stops in response to feedback and ridership patterns.
Read our case study to find out how Mike McConnell, the Transit Projects Lead at Barrie Transit, used Transify to design a hybrid fixed-route and on-demand network, evaluate stop changes, and improve reliability.
How Metrolinx uses Transify
With over 250,000 weekday boardings a day, Brampton Transit has the 14th busiest bus network in the US and Canada - more than Miami and Houston.
Combined with ridership reaching 130% of pre-pandemic levels and rising traffic congestion, the need to quickly adjust service is more crucial than ever. Determining whether delays warrant a schedule change used to take 15-30 minutes - it now takes less than two minutes.
Read our case study to find out how the planning and scheduling teams at Brampton Transit are using Transify to improve OTP, address crowding cost-efficiently, and develop more accurate runtimes.
How Metrolinx uses Transify
Niagara Region Transit is developing its first 5-Year Business Plan, for which Left Turn Right Turn has partnered with Transify to support.

Transify regularly develops custom integrations for ingesting data from third-party databases, APIs, CSVs, and shapefiles.
For exports, Transify can develop custom Excel exports in a format that aligns with existing transit agency reports. This enables transit agencies to automate data reporting processes that would otherwise require manual intervention or custom scripts that can become unmaintainable over time.
Unlike other vendors, Transify provides fixed-fees for custom integrations, and all custom integrations and data cleaning for data supported in Transify are included in all Transify subscriptions.
Based in Toronto, Transify is a remote-first company with staff based in Vancouver, BC, Waterloo, ON, and Toronto, ON. Transify was founded by Eddy Ionescu - formerly a software developer at Yelp and RideCo and transit planner at the Toronto Transit Commission.
Eddy founded Transify after seeing how much potential the data transit agencies already collect has to improve transit, with the vision to provide an out-of-the-box data platform that transit agencies can start using right away.
Transify pricing is based on the modules selected and the agency fleet size.
We have very flexible pilot pricing and are generally able to scope 6-to-12-month pilots within micro-purchase thresholds.
And unlike other vendors, we also commit to limiting long-term pricing increases beyond the contract duration so you can rest assured you can rely on us in the long-term without any surprises.
