Beep rolls out shared autonomous vehicle services in Orlando & Atlanta
Press Release, 7 November 2025
Beep, Inc. is gearing up to launch two major shared autonomous-vehicle (AV) deployments in the U.S., set for 2026. The company will deploy its technology in partnership with Karsan (using its Autonomous e-JEST vehicle), ADASTEC (providing the Level-4 driving software), and Damera Corp. (as the U.S. distributor) to deliver production-grade AV services in mixed traffic and challenging conditions.
The two deployment locations are:
- The city of Altamonte Springs, Florida, where the existing CraneRIDES transit-linking program will be expanded to include AVs that integrate with the regional rail network.
- The city of Atlanta, Georgia, in collaboration with the Atlanta BeltLine Inc., where fixed-route shared AVs will be deployed ahead of the 2026 FIFA World Cup 2026 to strengthen mobility access and connectivity.
Beep’s AutonomOS™ supervisory and fleet-orchestration platform will manage vehicle operations, monitoring and safety oversight, while the hardware and software stack is grounded in Karsan’s established EV bus platform and ADASTEC’s field-tested automation system (which already has more than 150,000 km of real-world automated operations and 60,000 passengers transported).
Overall, these launches mark a shift from pilot programmes toward scaled AV services embedded in transit systems and major event mobility planning—moving autonomous mobility from promise to public-service reality.
