Deployed in 10 major U.S. cities — and now across Europe — Hayden AI continues to deliver safer, more reliable public transit through cutting-edge, computer vision enforcement technology

Hayden AI has once again been recognized on the global stage, earning the title of Overall Computer Vision Solution of the Year in the 2025 AI Breakthrough Awards. This marks the third straight year Hayden AI has been honored by the program, a testament to the company’s continued success in solving real-world urban mobility challenges using AI.

At its core, Hayden AI builds technology that works — not in theory, but in cities, on streets, and for millions of daily commuters. The company’s automated transit zone enforcement platform is now being used by major cities in the United States and Europe to keep bus lanes, bike lanes, and bus stops clear of obstructions, leading to safer, faster, and more reliable public transportation.

“In an industry often focused on future potential, we’ve focused on delivering impact today,” said Charles Territo, Chief Growth Officer at Hayden AI. “Our platform puts AI to work solving immediate problems that affect real people — making buses run more reliably, making streets safer, and helping transit agencies operate more efficiently. This third consecutive award reinforces the results we’re delivering every day.”

In just three years, Hayden AI’s platform has been deployed in 10 major U.S. cities, including New York, Los Angeles, Washington DC, Philadelphia, Sacramento, and Santa Monica. European cities are now following suit, with Barcelona recently becoming the latest city to test Hayden AI’s technology.

The platform uses AI-powered cameras mounted on transit buses to detect parking and traffic violations in real time. Violations are processed at the edge and sent to local authorities for review, enabling scalable enforcement that encourages driver behavior change and improves public transit performance.

The results are clear. In New York City, routes with bus-mounted enforcement cameras saw an average 20% reduction in vehicle collisions, a 40% drop in bus stop parking violations within a single year, and up to 36% increases in bus speeds on some corridors.

As cities look for practical ways to improve mobility and safety, Hayden AI’s technology is proving that AI isn’t just powerful — it’s useful. And when deployed with the right purpose, it can help cities solve some of their most persistent transportation challenges.
