The formal partnership between the two U.S.-based industry leaders marks a significant industry advancement from temporary pilots to sustained operations at scale, aligning proven automated driving system (ADS) technology and production-grade vehicle platforms with deep expertise in the deployment of fully integrated autonomous transportation networks.

LAKE NONA, Fla. and EAST LANSING, Mich., Sept. 15, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Beep, Inc., a leading deployer of multi-passenger, autonomous mobility solutions in the U.S., and ADASTEC, a leading software company specializing in SAE Level-4 automated driving software solutions for public transportation, today announced a formal partnership to accelerate the safe deployment of shared autonomous transportation at scale.

Through this alliance, the companies will combine Beep's expertise in planning, deploying, integrating, and operating autonomous mobility networks with ADASTEC's advanced automated driving system (ADS) technology and OEM partnerships.  The new joint offering establishes an end-to-end solution for municipalities, transit agencies, campuses, airports, and private communities that complies with federal motor vehicle safety standards (FMVSS), the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), and other applicable state and federal requirements.

"Partnering with ADASTEC allows us to extend our autonomous mobility solutions to higher capacity, production-grade vehicles," said Kevin Reid, CEO of Beep. "This is about helping more people connect to jobs, healthcare, education, and each other more quickly and more safely than ever before, all while using state-of-the-art technology that is made in America."

Beep's AV-agnostic supervision and management platform, AutonomOS™, enables operators and agencies to deliver transit-integrated AV mobility services at scale, providing for vehicle and cabin supervision, fleet orchestration, and integrated workflow management.

"Beep's proven track record in operating shared autonomous networks makes them an ideal partner to bring ADASTEC's technology to scalable deployment across more routes and regions," said Dr. Ali Peker, CEO of ADASTEC. "Together, we are enabling scalable deployments of factory-fitted, full-size automated buses, combining our advanced automated driving technology with Beep's operational expertise to deliver public transportation that is safer, more efficient, and truly accessible. "

ADASTEC's SAE Level-4 automated driving software platform, flowride.ai, together with its advanced sensor suite technology, has already been proven in commercial deployments worldwide on open public roads. It delivers complete automated driving capabilities in mixed traffic, designed for fully automated operation without on-board human intervention. The system is designed to handle diverse driving conditions and maintain reliable operation under adverse weather conditions. The combination of ADASTEC's flowride.ai and its advanced sensor suite, consisting of LiDARs, RGB cameras, high-precision GNSS, and radar, enables full-size buses, factory-fitted with ADASTEC's technology, to operate at speeds of up to 35 miles per hour without the need for on-board human intervention.

The companies expect to share details on their first confirmed joint deployments in Georgia and Florida later this year.
