For carshare and fleet operators

The car comes to the member.

Conductor is the orchestration layer for remote driving. It connects the booking platform you already run, your telematics and your teleoperation partner, and turns each booking into a remote-driving job: the right car and the right remote driver at the right time, tracked from request to return.

Why remote driving

From today's fleets to autonomous ones
Today

Members go to the car

Fixed stations, each tied to a parking space and a charger. Every trip starts with a walk, and every car waits where it was left.

The bridgeHere now

The car goes to the member

A trained remote driver moves the car on public roads, with no one inside. It works today, retrofitted to the EVs operators already own.

Destination

The car drives itself

Autonomous fleets woven into the public transport system, with carsharing part of the network rather than an alternative to owning a car.

Every step toward autonomy needs the same foundations: remote operations, dispatch, data, permits and insurance. Remote driving lets operators build them now, with the cars they already own.

What it does for operators

A car where the member is.

01

Service delivery

The car comes to the member and leaves when the trip ends. No walk to a station.

02

Fleet repositioning

Cars move to where demand will be: evenings, events and low-density neighborhoods a station network never reaches.

03

Vehicle operations

Charging, cleaning and maintenance runs, with no staff behind the wheel and no walk back.

For operators that means fewer stations and chargers to build and maintain, and more hours out of every car.

What Corktown taught us

Candidly, from running it every day
01

The driving works

Car, remote station and network have proven themselves on Detroit streets. The hard part is everything around them.

02

Permits are local

Detroit's Transportation Innovation Zone opened the door. Every new city or state starts the conversation over.

03

The glue is a person

Each move runs through a booking system, telematics, a teleop console and a phone. Fine for one car. Not for fifty.

How remote driving works

A trained driver, a remote station, a connected car

At the station

A trained remote driver with wheel, pedals and live camera views from the car.

In the car

Cameras, modems on several cellular networks and an on-board failsafe that brings the car to a safe stop if the link drops.

Where Conductor fits

Your teleoperation partner supplies the driving technology. Conductor coordinates everything around it.

How Conductor works

A booking becomes a remote-driving job, in five steps
01

Book

A member books a car to their door in the app they already use.

02

Check

Conductor reads the car's location, charge and lock state from telematics.

03

Assign

It picks a qualified remote driver and a free station, and fits the job into the day.

04

Drive

It hands the job to the teleoperation platform and tracks it live, flagging exceptions.

05

Record

The handoff is logged for billing, insurers and regulators.

Conductor never steers. The teleoperation partner keeps the safety-critical control loop. Conductor issues the jobs and records what happened.

Vendor-neutral. Keep your booking platform and telematics, and choose your teleoperation partner.

Integrations

One layer across the systems you already run.

Every remote move touches three systems that were never designed to talk to each other. Conductor connects them through adapters, so adding a platform doesn't mean starting over.

Booking platform

Knows what the member needs. Starting with MOQO.

Telematics

Knows where the car is and how much charge it has. Starting with INVERS.

Teleoperation

Knows how to drive. The partner of your choice.
