About the company

Vay provides an on-demand, by-the-minute electric car rental service powered by teledriving, where customers request a vehicle via an app and a trained teledriver remotely drives the car to the customer. The customer then takes control to drive, and a teledriver later handles parking or delivering the car to the next user. The company also licenses its teledriving technology to other businesses (B2B) and collaborates with autonomous trucking tech, such as Kodiak Robotics. Its service began in Las Vegas after launching in 2024, with offices in Berlin and Portland. Differences from competitors include operating a car without a person inside on public streets in both Europe and the U.S., a dual B2C and B2B model, and a focus on combining remote driving with fleet management to reduce ride costs. Vay aims to provide a more affordable mobility option, roughly half the price of traditional ride-hailing, while expanding teledriving to more cities and logistics applications.

Simplify's Take

What believers are saying

Vay grew its Las Vegas fleet to 175 vehicles by April 2026.
It surpassed 60,000 rides and cut wait times below 10 minutes.
Germany's July 2025 remote-driving regulation opened a clearer path for European commercialization.

What critics are saying

Tesla, Waymo, and Uber won Nevada permits in August 2026, crushing category exclusivity.
Vay still relies on remote drivers, making labor costs and staffing a scaling bottleneck.
A safety incident in Las Vegas would kill trust and likely freeze expansion.

What makes Vay unique

Vay runs the first commercial remotely driven car rental, launched January 2024.
Its model delivers cars without passengers inside, then hands control to customers.
Las Vegas operations combine consumer rentals with B2B remote-driving licensing for trucks and fleets.

Nexar and Vay partner to bring predictive AI safety to world's first commercial remotely driven fleet

Nexar, an AI-powered mobility solutions provider, has partnered with Vay, the world's first commercial remotely driven car rental service, to integrate predictive safety technology into Vay's fleet. The partnership will embed Nexar's BADAS incident prediction model into Vay's remote driving platform in Las Vegas. BADAS uses AI trained on billions of miles of real-world driving data from Nexar's distributed vision network, which captures over 100 million miles monthly across US roads. The system aims to identify risks before incidents occur, supporting Remote Drivers operating vehicles from Vay's control centre. Vay, founded in 2018, has raised over $200 million from investors including Kinnevik, Coatue and Atomico. The company delivers electric vehicles remotely to customers who then drive themselves before returning control to remote operators.

Vay embraces remote driving for driverless car rentals, aims to be 50% cheaper than Uber

Vay, a Berlin-based startup, is building a "driverless car" rental service that fully embraces remote driving—a technology most robotaxi companies avoid to maintain their autonomous credentials. Founded by two engineers and a former Zoox employee, Vay delivers cars without humans inside using remote operators. Customers then drive themselves before returning the vehicle remotely. The company operates a fleet of 100 Kia Niros in Las Vegas, with remote drivers controlling deliveries from office stations at speeds under 25 mph. CEO Thomas von der Ohe said the service costs roughly 50% less than Uber, charging $0.35 per minute whilst driving. One remote operator can manage 10 vehicles sequentially. The startup has raised over $200 million and completed 35,000 trips. Whilst autonomous features may be added gradually, von der Ohe said competing with robotaxis isn't the goal.
