About Orontes Drive

Orontes Drive brings EV navigation, charging, connected vehicle data and road intelligence together with shared journeys and Ghost, our AI voice assistant.

Our startup

Orontes Drive began in 2025, within a business established in 2024. Our main office is in Defne, Hatay, Türkiye. We’re building EV navigation with charging planning and an AI voice assistant. Beta testing is under way on iOS (TestFlight) and Android (Google Play). We’re seeking funding and welcome conversations with investors and potential partners. Contact [email protected].

The product

Plan charging stops around your vehicle and route, compare station connectors and charging power, and follow navigation on iPhone or CarPlay. Choose Dash Mode or classic navigation, customize your gauges, track G-forces and receive speed-camera and average-speed-zone alerts. Connect Tesla or a compatible Bluetooth vehicle adapter for supported live vehicle data, or enter your battery level manually. Explore the product features.

Connected vehicles and Orontes Bridge

Tesla integration brings supported battery, range and charging information into the app. We’re also developing Orontes Bridge, our own Bluetooth CAN bus device, with the goal of supporting most vehicles. Available signals will depend on the vehicle; confirmed compatibility will be published after testing.

Shared journeys and community

Invite a copilot to follow your route and driver progress, add stops and help manage your destination from their own phone. Connect with friends, exchange pings and earn badges. Community incident reports and confirmations help drivers understand hazards ahead, with map visibility controlled by each user.

Road intelligence

With the feature enabled during active navigation, phone motion sensors help automatically identify bumps and rough road surfaces. Road observations and driver feedback build a picture of road quality. Detection is being refined in the beta; recent observations may still be awaiting community verification.

Try the working beta

Orontes Drive is in beta on iPhone (Apple TestFlight) and Android (Google Play testing). Apply to test the app; invitations are sent by email as places become available.

Ghost, our AI voice assistant

Ghost combines language models, including Google Gemini, with app tools and journey context. It interprets natural-language questions, retrieves route, weather or charging information and turns results into conversational answers. Route calculations and supported vehicle data come from the app’s services. AI answers can be incorrect; check important information and operate the app only when it is safe.

Asiye, the voice of Ghost

Asiye is our in-house Turkish AI voice model for Ghost’s spoken replies. We develop its voice and training workflow ourselves, with training from scratch planned. Asiye is currently an optional voice in the app. Development includes Turkish text normalization and pronunciation checks for road names, numbers and charging information.
