Three verticals. One partner.

We built Slidr around the three types of properties where short-distance transit matters most. Every program is turnkey.

We operate like your in-house transit department

We sit down with your team, learn your routes and ridership needs, identify the right service model, and then we build it. From vehicle sourcing through driver hiring, technology deployment, and daily operations.

Unlike vendors that hand you software and disappear, we stay embedded with your property. We manage the fleet, train the drivers, run the dispatch, and provide ongoing support as your program evolves.

How It Works

We own the complexity.

From vehicle sourcing to rider technology to daily operations. You get the transit program. We handle everything behind it.

Turnkey from day one

Most transit programs die in procurement. Different vendors for vehicles, different vendors for software, different vendors for drivers. Nothing integrates, nothing works, everyone points fingers.

Slidr eliminates that. One contract, one partner, one team that owns everything. We source the electric vehicles, hire and train drivers, install the rider technology, launch on schedule, and run daily operations indefinitely.

Discovery

We learn your routes, ridership patterns, hours of operation, and goals. You tell us what success looks like. We design the program around it.

Program Design

Custom operating plan with vehicle specs, route maps, staffing models, and transparent pricing. No hidden fees, no surprises.

Deployment

We source vehicles, hire and train drivers, install rider technology, and launch your program on schedule.

Operations

Daily management, vehicle maintenance, driver scheduling, ridership reporting, and rider support. All handled by Slidr. You get monthly reports.

Deployments

Programs running today.

Real operations, real ridership, real impact. These are not pilots.

Why Slidr

Not a software vendor. Not a vehicle dealer. The whole thing.

Transit programs fail when operations, technology, and vehicles are split across different vendors.

One partner for everything

Other companies sell you software and tell you to figure out the rest. Or they lease you vehicles with no operational support. Or they provide drivers but no technology.

Slidr is the only company that brings vehicles, drivers, insurance, maintenance, rider technology, dispatch, and reporting under one contract. One team. One monthly invoice. Zero finger-pointing.

FAQ

Common questions, straight answers.

Everything you need to know about launching an electric shuttle program with Slidr.

What is Slidr?

Slidr is a turnkey electric shuttle company that provides fully managed transportation programs for universities, hotels, and communities. Slidr supplies the vehicles, drivers, insurance, maintenance, rider app, dispatch technology, and reporting under a single contract.

How does Slidr's turnkey model work?

Slidr delivers a complete transportation program — not just software or vehicles. One monthly invoice covers the entire operation: an all-electric fleet, trained drivers, commercial insurance, vehicle maintenance, a branded rider app, real-time dispatch, and performance reporting. Organizations avoid the complexity of coordinating multiple vendors and instead work with a single operations partner.

What types of electric vehicles does Slidr use?

Slidr is vehicle agnostic. The specific vehicle mix depends on the client and the quality of service they need. Options range from low-speed neighborhood electric vehicles to full-size electric transit vans and shuttle buses. Slidr works with each partner to determine the right vehicles based on ridership volume, route distance, speed requirements, and campus or property layout. Every vehicle in the fleet is 100% electric with zero tailpipe emissions.

Which universities use Slidr?

Slidr operates at multiple universities across the United States. Florida State University runs the FSU Safe Ride program. Catawba College in Salisbury NC operates CatawbaGO for campus and community transit. Saint Leo University near Tampa FL runs the Pride Ride program. The University of North Alabama operates Roar Ride. Auburn University has used Slidr for game day shuttles at Jordan-Hare Stadium.

Do hotels pay for Slidr's shuttle service?

Slidr structures hospitality programs as a dedicated amenity for your property. The hotel pays a fixed monthly service fee that covers the vehicle, driver, insurance, technology, and operations. In return, the property gets an exclusive, branded electric shuttle that connects guests to local dining, shopping, beaches, and attractions. It is not a shared public service. It is your shuttle, with your branding, available only to your guests. Properties like the Cove Inn in Naples and the DoubleTree by Hilton in Myrtle Beach use Slidr as a competitive differentiator that drives guest satisfaction, five-star reviews, and repeat bookings.

Where does Slidr operate?

Slidr operates electric shuttle programs in Florida, Alabama, Ohio, North Carolina, and South Carolina. Specific locations include Tallahassee FL (Florida State University), Naples FL (Cove Inn), Port St. Lucie FL (Tradition community), St. Leo FL (Saint Leo University), Florence AL (University of North Alabama), Auburn AL (Auburn University), Oberlin OH (Oberlin eBus community transit), Salisbury NC (Catawba College), and expanding into South Carolina.

How do riders request a Slidr shuttle?

Riders request a Slidr shuttle through a branded mobile app available on iOS and Android. For on-demand service, riders enter their pickup and drop-off location and are matched with the nearest available vehicle in real time. For fixed-route service, riders can view live vehicle tracking on a map and see estimated arrival times at each stop.

What is the difference between on-demand and fixed-route service?

On-demand service works like a ride request — riders choose their pickup and drop-off and a shuttle is dispatched directly to them. Fixed-route service follows a set path with designated stops on a published schedule. Many Slidr programs combine both modes. For example, Catawba College in Salisbury NC and UNA Roar Ride in Florence AL run on-demand service during off-peak hours and fixed routes during high-traffic periods.

Does Slidr handle insurance?

Yes. Commercial auto and general liability insurance is included in every Slidr program. Your organization does not need to procure, manage, or expand its own insurance coverage to operate a shuttle. Slidr carries the policy, and our vehicles and drivers are fully covered from day one. This removes one of the biggest operational and legal burdens that organizations face when trying to run transportation in-house.

How long does it take to launch a Slidr program?

Most programs launch within 45 to 60 days. The timeline depends on whether you need a custom-branded rider app, custom vehicle wraps, or if Slidr is sourcing new vehicles for your program. If vehicles are already in the fleet and a standard app configuration works, launch can happen faster. Slidr handles all the setup: route planning, driver hiring and training, app deployment, vehicle prep, and charging infrastructure. You get a fully operational program without managing the buildout yourself.

What happens if a vehicle breaks down?

Slidr manages all vehicle maintenance and has contingency plans for every deployment. If a vehicle goes down, our operations team coordinates a replacement or backup so service disruption is minimized. Routine maintenance, tire changes, brake service, and charging system upkeep are all handled by Slidr. Your organization never has to deal with a mechanic, a tow truck, or a service appointment.

Is Slidr 100% electric?

Yes, every vehicle in the Slidr fleet is 100% electric. This includes GEM neighborhood electric vehicles, Tesla and Volkswagen passenger EVs, and Ford E-Transit vans and shuttle buses. Slidr programs produce zero tailpipe emissions, operate with significantly lower noise levels than diesel or gas shuttles, and help partner organizations meet sustainability and carbon reduction goals.

How can my organization start a shuttle program with Slidr?

Organizations start with a 15-minute discovery call where Slidr learns about the location, ridership needs, and operating hours. Slidr then designs a custom program with a specific vehicle mix, service model, and coverage map, along with a transparent monthly cost. Programs can launch in as little as 30 days. Contracts are flexible — seasonal, annual, or multi-year — with no long-term lockups required.
