Moonbility

What Moonbility does

Moonbility is a London-based, early-stage B2B SaaS company founded in 2024 that builds spatio-temporal modelling and digital twin infrastructure for multimodal transport networks. Its platform quantifies how disruptions cascade across rail, bus, tram and freight journeys, delivering real-time clarity to control rooms, onboard staff and passengers. The product is organised into three integrated modules: Control Rooms (disruption intervention planning with quantified ripple-impact insights and tiered stakeholder messaging), Onboard Monitoring (edge-AI CCTV analytics that detect wheelchair bay occupancy, crowding, accessibility blockers and fare violations, converting legacy CCTV into operational data), and Public Transport Accessibility (real-time passenger information to reduce boarding uncertainty). Underlying capabilities include anomaly detection on video streams, predictive simulation of disruption cascades, and process automation around stakeholder communication.

The company operates an enterprise field-sales go-to-market, with a 'Request a demo' primary CTA, and targets UK transport operators, control rooms and public transport authorities on a subscription basis; pricing is not publicly disclosed. The commercial base is thin: LNER (rail) is the sole named enterprise reference customer and an unnamed bus operator's Head of Customer Experience provided a testimonial. Funding to date totals approximately $511k across a $50k Connected Places Catapult grant (Aug 2024) and a ~$461k SFC Capital round (Apr 2025). Moonbility is deeply embedded in the UK public-sector innovation ecosystem — Innovate UK, Geovation/Ordnance Survey, Connected Places Catapult, EIT Urban Mobility, University of Cambridge Judge Business School, Zenzic and STARTUPAUTOBAHN — and was selected in April 2026 as one of eight organisations under the £150m CAM Pathfinder Feasibility Studies 2 for NHS hospital shuttle autonomous vehicle business cases. It has completed field validation at BCIMO, TRL and HORIBA MIRA (Oct 2024 – Mar 2025) and received Department for Transport / Google Cloud recognition for accessibility innovation.

Core offering

Moonbility provides a B2B SaaS platform that applies spatio-temporal modelling and digital twin technology to simulate and visualize how disruptions cascade across multimodal transport networks (rail, bus, tram, freight). The platform consists of three integrated modules—Control Rooms (disruption intervention planning), Onboard Monitoring (CCTV AI event detection at the edge), and Public Transport Accessibility (real-time passenger information)—enabling transport operators to make data-driven operational decisions during service disruptions.

Product overview

Moonbility offers a unified platform for real-time simulation of ripple effects across multimodal transport networks, encompassing three integrated modules: Control Rooms for disruption intervention planning and stakeholder communication, Onboard Monitoring for CCTV AI-based event detection and edge analytics, and Public Transport Accessibility for real-time passenger information. The platform applies spatio-temporal modelling to quantify disruption cascades across rail, bus, tram, and freight operations, delivering quantified insights from control rooms to onboard staff and passengers.

Functional benefit

Products and services

• Control Rooms A platform module that delivers rapid shared understanding and quantified insights for disruption intervention planning across rail, bus, tram, and freight networks. Provides tiered stakeholder messaging and policy-driven metrics to support consistent decision-making in transport control rooms.
• Onboard Monitoring A platform module using CCTV AI at the edge to detect events of interest (wheelchair bay use, crowding, accessibility blockers, fare violations) and integrate live onboard data into control room workflows for network-wide disruption simulation. Designed to transition legacy CCTV into real-time operational data while reducing CapEx/OpEx.
• Public Transport Accessibility A platform module delivering real-time accessibility information to staff and customers at stations and onboard vehicles. Provides actionable insights such as wheelchair bay availability, alternative route suggestions, and next-train suitability to reduce boarding uncertainty and boost confidence in public transport.

Quantifiable outcome

• LNER rapidly turned data into accurate predictions, supporting clearer information and encouraging more people to choose rail
