Our take

Cities around the world are dealing with clogged bus lanes, blocked stops, and traffic violations that slow down public transit and put people at risk. It's a huge problem, but one that remains difficult to monitor or mitigate effectively.

Hayden AI is tackling this problem with its smart, bus-mounted cameras powered by AI. They automatically detect when vehicles block bus lanes or stops, helping cities gather real-time data and take action to improve safety and traffic flow.

Already in use in cities like New York, LA, Barcelona and Braga, it's a transformative idea that can keep buses moving and riders safe. The company has raised considerable funding and is growing fast, and in 2026 received approval to begin serving local authorities across the UK.
