All Your Files. All your Messages. None of the Hassle

TransitChat breaks through the chaos of running a transit agency — every message, file, and decision is in a central place tagged with routes and stops. No more “Did you see this?” or “Where did we put that?”

TransitChat with Teams Messages, Emails & Meetings

Everything your agency already sends and says flows into one organized, searchable record — no new app, no extra login.

Teams Messages

Channel conversations are captured and tagged with the right route, stop, and department automatically.

Emails

Forward or send email to your agency inbox and it's sorted by channel, route, or topic without any manual filing.

Team Meetings

Meetings become short, tagged takeaways instead of hour-long transcripts nobody rereads.

Comming Soon

Works inside the tools you already use

TransitChat runs inside Microsoft Teams and Outlook — no rip-and-replace, no new login for your team. It adds what Teams doesn't have on its own: route and stop tagging, a searchable long-term record, and accountability across agency, operator, and union.

Built Different from Generic Project Tools

Asana, Monday.com, and the rest are built for tasks. TransitChat is built for transit.

Seamless email integration

Send to one inbox — no manual filing, no manual updates.

Built for transit, not generic boards

Every message tagged by route, stop, and department — not another Kanban board.

Full project traceability

A real timeline view, not decisions buried in comments or scattered across updates.

Actually designed to reduce meetings

Cutting meetings is the whole point — not an afterthought.

Your new shared drive, already organized

Drop in a message, file, or email — we sort it by route, stop, and team automatically. That's our job, not yours.

Long-form threads, structured by topic

Not scroll-heavy task comments or updates dispersed across boards.

Looking for transit agencies to partner with

We're not trying to sign up as many agencies as possible — we're looking for a handful of transit agencies to partner with and build TransitChat around real-world workflows inside Microsoft Teams.

Search

Search everything by route and stop

Every message, file, decision, and meeting takeaway is tagged with the route and stop it's about. Search once, and get back everything relevant — no matter which inbox, channel, or meeting it came from.

  • Search by route, stop, or line
  • Search by team, topic, or project
  • Every result links back to its original source

Visibility

See how every team and project is progressing

Assignments, deadlines, and status live in the open — so agencies, operators, and unions can see what's moving, what's stuck, and who owns it, and deliver projects on time without another status meeting.

  • Real-time status across every team
  • Clear ownership on every assignment
  • Accountability across agency, operator, and union

Built on GTFS

Every message tagged to a route and stop

TransitChat runs on the same GTFS route and stop data your agency already publishes — so instead of typing tags or picking folders, every message, file, and assignment is automatically tied to the place it's about.

This is the kind of thinking public transit needs right now.

Meetings that don't disappear into a transcript

Otter, Zoom, and Teams will tell you who said what. TransitChat goes further — every meeting becomes a short takeaway, tagged with the route, stop, team, and project it's about, and filed where your team will actually find it again. No more scrolling an hour-long transcript for the one line about Route 23.

Where other tools stop

  • Meeting transcriptions
  • Who said what

Where TransitChat begins

  • Route, stop, team, and project data added for context
  • Organized into agreements, assignments, and project updates
  • Stored long-term with the right project and team
Permanent Record

Every record, kept forever for reporting

Federal reporting, audits, and grant compliance all depend on a complete history. TransitChat never deletes or auto-expires a message, decision, or file — every record stays tied to its route and stop, ready when you need it.

  • Nothing is ever deleted or auto-expired
  • Full audit trail tied to route, stop, and date
  • Export what you need for FTA, NTD, or grant reporting

Agency, Operator & Union Alignment

Transit agencies, operations providers, and union representatives often see the same issue three different ways. TransitChat keeps a single, shared record of what was said, decided, and assigned — tagged by route and stop — so schedule changes and service decisions don't turn into finger-pointing.
