AI Analysis

●MidSolve My Problem

Free GTFS editor when Google's GTFS Editor and Transitland already exist.

Strengths
  • •Free tier removes cost barrier for small transit agencies that can't afford enterprise software.
  • •Import from existing GTFS feeds means you can edit real schedules immediately.
  • •CloudFlare hosting keeps it fast and accessible without installation requirements.
Weaknesses
  • •GTFS editors already exist (Google's GTFS Editor, Transitland, various open-source tools).
  • •Built with Claude Code is marketing detail, not a technical differentiator.

Post Description

Editing a bus route or schedule shouldn't require expensive software that's difficult to learn, so I built a free, web-based editor that transit agencies can use for free (or pay a nominal fee for cloud-based schedule hosting). Find your local bus service using "Search Catalog" from the "Import" button or explore a demo feed at https://www.gtfsx.com/demo

Built with Claude Code. Hosted on CloudFlare.
