Ontira empowers transit operators with solutions that enhance customer communications. Our mission is to provide progressive Automated Traveler Information Systems (ATIS) for the public transit and transportation marketplace. At Ontira, we are changing the way people travel – with intelligent technology for intelligent transportation.

Providing ATIS solutions since 1984, Ontira has developed a deep understanding of the unique needs and challenges in transit communications. We combine innovative applications with a range of media to deliver traveler information anytime, any place. Our advanced media options include Interactive Voice Response (IVR), Automated Speech Recognition (ASR), Internet, kiosk, variable message signage and wireless applications.
