Central to this expansion is the company's AutonomOSTM AV mobility platform and its "production-grade, state-of-the-art [Karsan Autonomous](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/karsan-automotive) e-JEST vehicles." Beep's electric, multi-passenger vehicle platform has been certified for road use and is equipped with Level 4 automation technology. The first deployment is an expansion of an existing municipal transit program in Altamonte Springs, Florida. As part of this venture, the "expanded CraneRIDES program will connect directly to the Altamonte Springs SunRail station and the broader regional transit network starting in 2026." The second self-driving shuttle service deployment is a new initiative on the Atlanta Beltline. There, Beep will operate "the first fixed route shared AVs in the City of Atlanta" ahead of the 2026 FIFA World Cup.
