GTFS Feed Extractor
Pricing
from $0.35 / 1,000 records
Point at ANY GTFS-static feed URL (BART, MBTA, and thousands of transit agencies worldwide — one global standard) and get flat dataset rows: agency, stops, routes, trips, calendar, stop_times and more. Discovery mode lists a feed's tables. Pay per record.
You can access the GTFS Feed Extractor programmatically from your own applications by using the Apify API. You can also choose the language preference from below. To use the Apify API, you’ll need an Apify account and your API token, found in Integrations settings in Apify Console.

It simplifies API development, integration, and documentation.
OpenAPI is effective when used with AI agents and GPTs by standardizing how these systems interact with various APIs, for reliable integrations and efficient communication.
By defining machine-readable API specifications, OpenAPI allows AI models like GPTs to understand and use varied data sources, improving accuracy. This accelerates development, reduces errors, and provides context-aware responses, making OpenAPI a core component for AI applications.
