We're not waiting for regulation. We're building the operator model now — starting with a live service in East Hampton.
Summer 2026: Complimentary Tesla ride service at a premier East Hampton hotel. Real rides. Real guests. Real data.
Building operational data, community relationships, and brand equity that positions us ahead of any future competitor.
Positioned to be the first autonomous fleet operator in New York when regulations allow. 500,000+ summer visitors. Zero AV competition.
~$34K total cost. 624 rides. Proof of concept and press coverage.
$40–50/ride. Breakeven at ~10 rides/day with 1 car.
$45/ride, $5 cost/ride, 90% margin per vehicle.
25 autonomous vehicles = $3.8M revenue, $3M profit.
The driver is 59% of our operating cost. Removing the driver doesn't just improve margins — it transforms the business. Each autonomous vehicle swings from an $18,900 loss to a $119,200 profit.
Federal momentum is building: SELF DRIVE Act passed House committee. Surface Transportation Reauthorization due September 2026.
We're raising $150–200K in a seed round via SAFE note to fund the Summer 2026 pilot and transition to paid operations.
