Vay

Corporate marketteleopCurated record

Vay's teledriving platform lets remote operators pilot electric vehicles from off-site control centres using real-time multi-camera feeds and an NVIDIA DRIVE AGX compute stack with multi-network bonding (Verizon 5G) and automated safety handoff protocols; the company positions its approach as a bridge to full autonomy, capturing training data from every commercial trip. Vay operates a B2C teledriving car-service in Las Vegas (commercially launched January 2024, scaled to 175 vehicles with a dedicated Remote Driving Centre by April 2026) and simultaneously licenses the teledriving stack to car-share operators and OEMs under a B2B model. The B2B product launched in February 2025 with Poppy/Ush (D'Ieteren subsidiaries) deploying Vay's technology across Poppy's 2,000+ vehicle fleet in Belgium; additional agreements cover Peugeot, Bayanat (Middle East/APAC), and Kodiak (autonomous trucking integration). In November 2025, Grab committed up to $410M in strategic investment ($60M initial) to scale operations in the US and Asia-Pacific.
