I love Google Transit directions. Can you give some examples of where Embark beats out Google Transit (screenshots if possible)?

Also do you have real-time updates on arrival times with SF Muni? Google Transit does not.

Here's one example we saw recently in new york going from the 116th/Columbia stop to 12 St Marks Place. Google's result: http://i.imgur.com/8zpbY.png Our result: http://i.imgur.com/gpDu5.png & http://i.imgur.com/8hvrs.png

Currently we don't have an app for muni, though it's something we're working towards. There are some nice apps for Muni that have real-time arrivals but lack routing. Transporter & Routsey are probably the two best.

Not sure if Google is monitoring your posts or if their routing glitched before but doing the search just now gave me pretty much the same results on Google Maps... http://goo.gl/maps/fsfKF

Looks like they're watching. It had been like that for a couple weeks and still was up until the time I posted.
