Trusted Simulation Tools Today

The Mobility Tech Update 2026 brings together the latest developments in PTV software and gives customers a clearer view of what is coming next. It also marks a move toward more continuous product development: more frequent updates, greater roadmap visibility and more opportunities for customers to share feedback and shape what comes next.

At the core, PTV Visum and PTV Vissim remain central to the portfolio and will continue to receive focused investment. Decades of transportation expertise are embedded in PTV’s modeling, simulation and operational engines, creating trusted digital representations of how cities, networks and people move.
This is the foundation for confident mobility decisions today, and the basis for the next generation of mobility intelligence.

One Environment for Every Mobility Decision Tomorrow

This year’s Mobility Tech Update is part of Umovity’s broader direction and reflects a reality many transportation teams know well: mobility decisions often span multiple tools, teams and hand-offs. Questions are defined in one place, scenarios are built in another, results are shared separately and approvals happen elsewhere. Time is lost, and the reasoning behind decisions becomes harder to trace.

Umovity is connecting this process more intelligently. New applications with AI-enabled workflows will build on the trusted PTV core, helping teams move from a mobility question to scenarios, evidence, collaboration and decisions they can explain.

This is not a replacement of proven PTV technology. It is the next layer built on top of it.
 

The Three Layers of Continuous Mobility Intelligence

understand an plan

Understand & Plan

Trusted mobility modeling, simulation and management engines

  • PTV Visum, Vissim, Viswalk and Optima help professionals model mobility systems before decisions are made.
  • They support simulation and operations with digital representations of cities, networks and people.

Decide & Act

Intelligent workflows for real mobility use cases

  • As part of Umovity, PTV makes mobility intelligence accessible through persona- and use-case-based workflows.
  • These turn complex modelling into guided decisions across public transport, infrastructure, events, traffic management and operational response.

Predict, Learn & Improve

AI-powered prediction, recommendations and continuous improvement

  • Live data, trusted models and AI help professionals monitor mobility, predict what comes next, evaluate scenarios and act faster.
  • Learning from outcomes supports continuous improvement; AI strengthens transportation expertise rather than replacing it.

Help Shape the Future of Mobility Intelligence

Mobility Tech Update 2026 is not only about what is new today. It is also about understanding what transportation professionals need next.

Share your perspective in a 4-minute survey and help us validate where mobility decision-making should evolve: from modeling and scenario planning to AI-assisted workflows, collaboration, approvals and continuous improvement.

Your feedback will help our product teams better understand where current processes create friction, where AI can provide meaningful support and which use cases matter most for future development.
