Our story begins in the MIT Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory (CSAIL) and TU Delft Labs, where our co-founders Alex Wallar and Menno van der Zee developed a passion for the engineering and mathematical challenge of dynamic on-demand public transportation.
Their ingenuity, academic work, and improvements in computation inspired The Routing Company’s initial routing technology. This technology presented a radical improvement to the efficiency of existing on-demand transit systems, with up to 10x the passengers serviced per vehicle hour.
