Track transit delays and alert your team in Slack

Watches transit schedules for delays and instantly emails your team with a task to follow up.

How the work actually flows

It repeats. Runs again next scheduled check.

Pattern: Structured Loop (21)

The problem it solves

You or your team end up checking multiple transit websites by hand to see if a route is running late. By the time you notice a delay, it is too late to reroute or warn the people who needed to know.

Who it fits

Commuting teams or travel admins who need to track transit disruptions.

How it works

  1. The system checks transit schedules on a set timer
  2. It compares the latest schedule against the last check to spot new delays
  3. When a delay is found, an alert email goes out automatically
  4. A task is created so someone can follow up
What you get

Delays you hear about before passengers complain

Transit schedules are watched around the clock, and your team gets an instant alert the moment a new delay appears.

What you get

An email alert and a tracked follow-up task for each new transit delay.

What you need

A Mailgun account and a ClickUp account.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.
