Plan and run every fixed route service, on one platform.
From a single line to a full network, plan service, publish GTFS, build schedules, and run live operations in one system — combined-mode, detours, special events, or a full fixed route replacement.
Everything you need to plan and run fixed route
Plan service, publish updates, and run operations from the same data—no handoffs, no lag.
Built-in Push to Talk, not a separate radio
Dispatch and drivers stay connected on the same platform that runs the route. One press reaches a single driver or an entire route, so a detour, a delay, or an event change gets communicated the moment it happens.
Design service once, publish everywhere
Design and publish routes visually
Draw routes and publish from a live map view.
GTFS that matches reality
Your published feed reflects the service on the road, not a file someone updates by hand.
One system, planning to ops
When you run demand response too, both run on the same data.
Build true-to-life schedules
Control service hours and efficiency early
See service hours, miles, and deadhead as you build.
Right-size fleet and service in real time
Adjust vehicles and trips with full visibility into requirements.
Enforce labor rules by default
Ensure blocking and duties align with union agreements and local constraints.
Monitor and adapt your network in real-time
Optimize service across modes
Balance vehicles and trips to improve efficiency, across every mode you run.
Respond to disruptions faster
Detect issues early and apply updates system-wide.
Talk to drivers directly
Reach one driver or a whole route from the dispatch view. Push the update the moment conditions change, without a separate radio system.
Keep drivers on route, on time, and in sync
Spare’s driver app supports the full shift—from duties to navigation, passenger tracking, and live updates. Routes and schedules sync automatically, so drivers always have the latest information.
Built-in navigation, on-time status, and passenger tracking keep drivers on route, on schedule, and connected to operations.
