The future of mobility is MaaS and to succeed for everyone, we need a new mindset. MaaS America embodies it. MaaS America advances a vision of MaaS that reflects the American notion of mobility – one based on the principle of integration, incentive, inclusion, innovation and cooperation. One that encourages movement as opposed to one with policies that discourage it. MaaS is the path to solving funding, congestion and environmental issues – and maintaining integrated lives. It takes the public and industry as equal actors at the table to make it happen. Get your seat. Adopt the mindset. Shape and inform the next model of mobility in America. A MaaS Model Societal, technological and economic trends demand that we view mobility services more holistically, less stove-piped and more integrated with other modes and other aspects of our lives. A MaaS model must incentivize the private sector, be inclusive to the public and ensure transit continues to fulfill its historic role symbiotic with private providers and user's preferences. America’s mobility mindset must evolve beyond the scarcity model, where actions and policies are based on limiting how we move around. It must implement the abundance model, where ‘success’ means mutually beneficial results to all involved, where all parties appreciate the uniqueness and contributions of others and where there is opportunity for growth and development. MaaS America supports the abundance mindset and a MaaS Model that preserves the choice of modes and levels of service and advocates for solutions and policies that encourage travel, which makes for a more dynamic economy and satisfying public life. Suppress mobility? Americans want more movement. MaaS America is a non-profit forum advocating a MaaS ecosystem that supports the American approach to mobility. Public transport interests, large enterprises, start-up ventures, government agencies and academia sit equally at the table.

Billions of people are sharing their mindsets, interests, and attitudes on social media every day. Yet companies still rely solely on demographics and surveys to understand their customers. Spatial.ai was born from the insight that—if captured and organized in a meaningful way—the massive amount of unstructured social media data publicly available can provide richer consumer insights. Since 2016, our data has been leveraged by hundreds of companies to better understand their customers, predict sales revenue, and inform critical business decisions.

The Challenge. Cars consume 25% of the average family’s budget, twice as much as we regularly save for retirement. Including societal cost, wasted time and pollution, the true cost of driving one car averages nearly $18,000 per year. With ever more convenient mobility services becoming available in our cities, people are facing the daunting decision if replacing the car they own with more economic and sustainable personal mobility services is the right choice for the mobility they need. Our Solution. We reveal the true transportation cost, time and emissions for individuals and society and reward the replacement of oversized and underutilized automobiles with more economic and sustainable mobility options.
