Autonomous Private Pods, Public Prices: Mass Transit at 10% of the Cost

Glydways Founder and Co-CEO Mark Seeger explains how a mesh network of private, autonomous pods offers a scalable, $20 million-per-mile solution to the global congestion crisis. --------------------------- Mark Seeger, Founder & Co-CEO, Glydways joined Grayson Brulte on The Road to Autonomy podcast to discuss how a mesh network of private, on-demand autonomous pods can solve global urban congestion at a fraction of the cost of traditional transit. While today’s narrative currently centers around robotaxis, the real breakthrough may come from rethinking the physics and economics of mass transit through disaggregation. Instead of relying on infrastructure-steered legacy rail systems that lose money on every ride, Glydways has developed an autonomous pod system that utilizes lightweight, pedestrian-grade infrastructure at roughly 10% of the cost of light rail. In other words, replacing a $2 billion-per-mile problem with a $20 million-per-mile solution. --------------------------- Episode Chapters 0:00 Founding Glydways 7:10 Economic Impact of Glydways 12:24 Incumbent Lobbyists 15:30 Foreign Markets 18:54 Glydways Infrastructure 26:43 Trust & Safety 35:14 Glydways Network 46:09 Glydways Cost Comparison 49:38 Future of Glydways --------------------------- Recorded on Tuesday, November 18, 2025 ► Subscribe    / @roadtoautonomy   -------- About The Road to Autonomy The Road to Autonomy provides market intelligence and strategic advisory services to institutional investors and companies, delivering insights needed to stay ahead of emerging trends in the autonomy economy™.
