About The Company

Vay's door-to-door car rental service is live in central Las Vegas, Nevada! Experience the convenience of by-the-minute rental cars delivered driverlessly to your location. Download the "Vay Rent Cars by the Minute" app and take a ride today! https://vay.onelink.me/BXfV/3n0ectu7 Vay develops automotive-grade technology for remote driving. Through the Vay app, users can request an electric vehicle to be remotely delivered to their location. After the car has arrived, the user takes over and drives it like a regular car. At the end of the trip, the user exits the car, and a Remote Driver takes over, eliminating the time-consuming search for parking. This creates the most affordable door-to-door mobility service at half the ride-hailing price. Since its launch, users have taken thousands of rides and can hail a Vay car at a wide variety of locations throughout Las Vegas, including the busiest hotels on the Strip. Vay has recently expanded its offering to include B2B services, enabling remote driving for private cars, trucks, vans, and autonomous vehicles, among others.
