Products

Two products, one town.

Each one solves part of the town's daily life. Together, they form its digital infrastructure.

For residents, visitors and local businesses

The citizen map

Everything you need in your town, on one map, in real time.

  • Live buses at every stop, plus weather and sea conditions
  • Duty pharmacies and fuel prices at every petrol station
  • Restaurant bookings, shop appointments and event tickets
  • What's on, the Fallas festival and notices from the town hall and transport
  • Hospital, police, fire brigade and other services, with directions to the door
  • Over 800 places with their own listing, in 10 languages, with no intrusive ads

For businesses: each one manages its listing, bookings and appointments from its own dashboard.

NexIABus For transport operators and town councils

Real-time urban buses

Every bus, tracked metre by metre, second by second, with just an Android phone.

  • One position per second, snapped to its street
  • Artificial intelligence that learns stops, sections and rush hours
  • Fleet, timetable, vehicle and driver dashboard
  • No hardware and no installation work on the buses

Already in service with the urban bus fleet in Cullera.

How they fit together

What NexIABus measures, residents see on Viu Map.

They aren't two separate apps: one product's data feeds the other.

  1. The bus

    The NexIABus phone sends its position every second.

  2. The engine

    It snaps the bus onto its street and works out when it reaches each stop.

  3. The stop on Viu Map

    A resident opens the map and sees “Arriving in 3 min”.

What they share

Our own technology, designed for small and medium-sized towns.

  • Built in-house

    Engines and platforms designed and built by RankIArte.

  • Artificial intelligence

    Our engines learn from every day of use to become more accurate.

  • Real time

    Data by the second, not by the hour.

  • Always on

    Infrastructure in the Google cloud, available day and night.

  • For everyone

    Several languages and designed for any phone.

  • No intrusive ads

    No pop-ups and no annoying adverts.

Who it's for

One platform, thousands of winners.

  • Town councils

    A connected city is one that listens to its citizens every second.

    Let's talk
  • Transport operators

    Your whole fleet in real time, with no costly equipment to install on the buses.
