TransitScreen Closes $3M In Funding From Vancouver-Based TIMIA Capital

With Plans to Expand Office Space, Increase Hiring, and Grow Footprint in the Corporate Workplace Vertical, Latest Raise Brings Software Company's Total Funding to $6.1M

Washington, DC /PRNewswire/ - TransitScreen, provider of real-time transportation information software, today announced the close of $3 million in funding from Vancouver-based TIMIA Capital, doubling the company's capital raised to-date and bringing the total to $6.1 million. With this funding, TransitScreen plans to enhance the capabilities of its mobile app CityMotion, continue hiring and increase its office space in Washington, D.C., and expand its foothold in the growing corporate workplace vertical.

TransitScreen, founded in 2014 by Matt Caywood and Ryan Croft, is known for its displays of real-time information about all nearby mobility options in public venues, commercial buildings, apartments, and corporate offices. This includes traditional public transportation like subways and buses, as well as newer private options like scooters, bikeshare, and ridehailing services such as Uber, Lyft, and Via.

TransitScreen allows commuters to compare train times to bus arrivals on their way to work in the morning, know when their employee shuttle arrives so they aren't caught waiting in the cold, or catch an Uber or Lyft instead of bikeshare if it's raining. It empowers people in cities everywhere to select the most efficient mode of transportation in real time.

The company's recently launched mobile app, CityMotion, puts this power directly into users' hands in tandem with lobby displays, changing the way people in urban areas move, and subsequently, how they live. CityMotion is the first B2B mobility app for commuters, including information about private employer-provided shuttles, and has more mobility data than any other app on the market today.

"TransitScreen has built a capital efficient business with great customer and revenue growth," said Greg Smith, CIO of TIMIA. "They see the value of retaining ownership of their destiny and we're happy to provide flexible and non-dilutive capital that meets their needs."

"We looked at a variety of venture capital- and revenue-based financing firms, but we wanted to choose someone who was the right fit for our high-growth, revenue-generating business," said Matt Caywood, CEO of TransitScreen. "TIMIA is an innovative investor and the right partner for our growth plans."
