Vay: Pioneers in Remote Mobility
editVay is an innovative company specializing in the development and implementation of remote driving ("Tele-driving"). Founded in Berlin, Germany, and with branches in Hamburg and Las Vegas, USA, Vay has achieved the milestone of being the first company in Europe and the USA to operate cars without safety drivers on public roads.
Key Products and Services
editVay offers a revolutionary door-to-door mobility service, where electric vehicles are remotely controlled by professionally trained tele-drivers from a central tele-driving station. Customers can order an electric vehicle via the Vay App, which is then brought to them. After arrival, customers drive to their destination, and at the drop-off point, the tele-driver takes over the vehicle again, eliminating the time-consuming search for a parking space[1][2][5].
Main Mission and Values
editVay's mission is to provide a safe, affordable, and sustainable mobility solution that makes driving more efficient, comfortable, and environmentally friendly for everyone. The company lives by the motto "Safety First" and integrates high safety standards into every step of the development process. Vay adheres to automotive industry standards, including ISO 26262 for functional safety and ISO 21434 for cybersecurity[1][3][5].
Sustainability Goals and Initiatives
editVay is committed to sustainable mobility by aiming for high utilization of the electric fleet, which can reduce the overall number of cars in cities, CO2 emissions, as well as air and noise pollution. By using electric vehicles and optimizing vehicle usage, Vay actively contributes to climate protection[1][3][5].
Partnerships and Expansion
editVay is building an extensive network of automotive manufacturers and commercial partners to leverage the benefits of tele-driving for private vehicles, logistics, car sharing, car rental, and public transport. The company has completed a Series B funding round of 95 million USD and is working closely with American and German authorities to obtain the necessary permits for the launch of the service[2][3].
With its pioneering work in tele-driving technology and its focus on safety, sustainability, and comfort, Vay positions itself as a leader in the future of mobility.
