Improve the user-friendliness

Was war/ist das Projekt/die Strategie?

Technology company routeRANK (2006) provides multimodal mobility portals as an IT service. Unlike other solutions, they address the entire door-to-door route by integrating all relevant modes of transport such as air, rail (high speed, national as well as regional), coach, public transport, P+R, car, rental car, fleet, car sharing, car pooling, limousine, ride hailing, taxi, e-bike, bike, walk and their many multimodal combinations, including real-time information, in Europe and worldwide. In a single search, the patented technology finds and ranks the best possible routes, allowing users to sort them according to multiple criteria such as price, travel time and CO2 emissions, and to book/reserve them in the relevant ways, including the MaaS payment model. We personalize and integrate our platform according to our diverse customers' and partners’ use and business cases, in particular around their own offering, their preferred partners and their goals.

Welchem Anwendungssektor ordnen Sie ihren Beitrag zu?

Our portals are used both as corporate mobility portals (i.e. within customers, for their employees) and as public mobility portals

Welchen Mehrwert bietet das Projekt für die Bevölkerung?

In a single tool, the user can search, book and get a single ticket instead of multiple ticket with multiple operators. The planning module ranks the best possible routes, allowing users to sort them according to multiple criteria such as price, travel time and CO2 emissions. Other criteria can be the number of changes (or better the number of modes), departure/arrival, productivity/usable time, risks (e.g. of delays) or energy consumption.
From the sustainability point of view, facilitating access to mobility by public transport is a clear advantage vis-à-vis of the private car. By improving the public services of mobility, the alternative to car can lead to benefits such as diminishing air pollution and reduce congestion. Other clear benefits are the reduction of travel costs.
