Instead, the ride-hailing giant turned to Moovit, an Israeli startup that's amassed more than 7,000 transit operators across 3,000 cities and 96 countries with one goal: directions from point A to point B.

Meydad declined to share revenue figures or comment on Moovit's profitability, however he did say that sales revenue tripled in 2019 compared to the previous year. That growth has been fueled in part by signing on major customers in addition to Uber, including Microsoft, which includes Moovit's data in its Azure cloud stack for clients.
