Our Team

We are passionate about the environment. Transportation is the largest source of greenhouse gases and a multi-trillion dollar market. It’s a place where we can have a big positive impact. The number of vehicles doubles every 20 years and we are running out of room for more roads. The path we are on is simply unsustainable. We can do much better!

Forever Sustainable Transportation - environmentally and financially

Swift Rails is a new type of on-demand transit that is 5x faster and 40x less expensive than conventional light-rail.

Swift Rails uses autonomous 1-4 person vehicles traveling rapidly on a highway of ultra-light rails. Vehicles are hailed by app and deliver passengers directly to their destination with zero emissions. The rails are elevated 12-15 ft. above the traffic (and pedestrians, animals, wet roads and snow) using a pole similar in size to a light post and they install quickly and easily almost anywhere.









Forward-looking projections cannot be guaranteed.










We Make Installing Transit Easy by Radically Changing the Cost Equation

Our low cost, quick installation and tiny footprint completely changes how transit can be applied by eliminating the biggest hurdles to implementation. In many cases, we can build a system for the time and cost of studying conventional transit projects.




People Who See Our Vehicle Love Our Concept

Just about anyone who sees our vehicle in person immediately “gets it”. We’ve had over 1,000 people sit in the vehicle and responses have been overwhelmingly positive. They want Swift Rails in their hometown, and many are bursting with ideas of other places where it would be great.
