Who We Are

OTIV is a Ghent-based company leading the autonomous revolution in rail. We are on a mission to increase safety and efficiency in railway operations by teaching rail vehicles to drive autonomously.

We bring this vision to life through a unique focus on the most challenging environments, including cities, shunting yards, and industrial sites. Thanks to high-profile partners and world-leading clients like Deutsche Bahn, SNCF Group, ArcelorMittal, and CAF, we deliver the future of railway operations today.
