About Vay

vay.io

Vay develops remote-driving technology that lets vehicles be controlled and monitored from a distance as a practical alternative to full autonomy and private car ownership. Their platform combines in-vehicle software and connectivity with trained remote operators to enable driverless mobility services for ride‑hailing, fleet operations and urban transport. Vay emphasizes safety, rapid deployability and cost efficiency versus purely autonomous systems, aiming to accelerate scalable mobility solutions. They partner with vehicle manufacturers, fleet operators and cities to integrate remote‑driving capabilities into production vehicles and services.
