INVO Ride: A ride-hailing software stack for autonomous eVTOLs, simulated over a photoreal 3D San Francisco
By
Leo Kayali
Summary
INVO Ride is a full ride-hailing software stack for autonomous eVTOL (electric vertical takeoff and landing) aircraft, built by Leo. While actual autonomous air taxis don't exist yet, the platform simulates flights over a photorealistic 3D digital twin of San Francisco, featuring hexagonal sky lanes, self-separating fleet management, and FAA-airspace-aware routing. The software includes real account management, booking systems, fleet management, pricing, and battery/charging planning — everything except the actual flying.

· 3 pulledI'm Leo, and INVO Ride is my answer to a question I couldn't stop thinking about: when autonomous air taxis arrive, what does the Uber for them look like?
I decided the software shouldn't wait for the aircraft.
Honest framing up front: no humans are flying anywhere (yet). Everything else is real software.
