TORONTO, Oct. 15, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Argo Corporation (TSXV: ARGH) (OTCQB: ARGHF) (“Argo” or the “Company”) today announced that Smart Routing™ has been named one of TIME’s Best Inventions of 2026.
Argo Smart Routing™ in TIME Best Inventions of 2026
TIME’s annual Best Inventions list recognizes extraordinary innovations changing our lives.
Smart Routing™ is a modern public transit solution for cities that picks people up at their door for a standard bus fare. It is powered by Argo’s integrated smart infrastructure, bringing connected electric vehicles, charging, technology and operations together as one coordinated system. The network continuously adapts in real time to where people need to go, combining many individual trip requests into efficient shared routes that pick riders up at their doors along the way.
“We believe the future of mobility is public transit that comes to your door, reduces traffic, and is economically sustainable for every community,” said Praveen Arichandran, CEO and Co-founder of Argo. “Argo is delivering that future today.”
Smart Routing™ is already powering thousands of trips each day across a wide range of environments, from the dense downtown core of a major city, to a smaller town, to multiple communities across a large rural municipality. The same infrastructure has extended an existing bus and rail network, operated a complete local transit system, and established a local municipal transit system where none previously existed.
Argo is focused on bringing Smart Routing™ to communities of every size, from small towns to the world’s largest cities.
