Tesla already carries passengers here. Get on the ownership side.
The SF Bay Area became Tesla’s seventh robotaxi metro (per Tesla’s Q2 2026 report, July 22, 2026) — and it’s the only one where the rides still carry safety drivers, under a California TCP permit. Add Waymo and Zoox in San Francisco and you’re living in the densest multi-operator overlap in the country. If you ride with robots already and want to own the next wave of them, this page is the honest version of how that works with DockDuty today.
The honest status: no Bay Area depot yet
Where DockDuty stands · August 2026
Depot #1 is targeted to open in Greater Orlando in Q4 2026 with 50 founding stalls — one founding book, network-wide, and it’s converting.
Our published roadmap is Florida-first: Miami breaks ground when Orlando is ~80% reserved and operating, Tampa follows the same trigger — potentially in parallel. From there we expand wherever the Cybercab market opens — and the Bay Area, with three operators already sharing its streets, makes its own case loudly.
Where we build after Florida is shaped by demand we can point to. That’s exactly what the list at the bottom of this page is.
Founder spots are open — from the Bay Area, today
One founding book of 50 stalls, network-wide. Reserve for $450 — fully refundable until your Cybercab is onboarded — elect Bay Area, CA in the flow, and your car earns at depot #1 the day it arrives.
You don't have to wait for a Bay Area dock
DockDuty is an own-from-anywhere platform, and the reservation attaches to the network, not to one city:
- Reserve a stall today — $450, fully refundable until your Cybercab is onboarded, credited in full against the $1,000 onboarding fee.
- Your car earns at depot #1 in Greater Orlando. We park, charge, clean, and dispatch; you watch it from the Bay Area on the same dashboard our founding owners use today.
- Elect Bay Area, CA as your preferred market right in the reservation flow — when the network reaches your metro, your preference is already on file.

We also track every live US robotaxi market on the US Robotaxi Map — jump to the Bay Area, updated as markets open and free for anyone to cite.
The Bay Area list
Where we build after Florida is a demand question, and this list is the demand. Join it and two things happen: you get one email if a Bay Area depot moves from roadmap to real, and your interest is counted when we pick the next metro. No newsletter, no drip.
Already sure? You can skip the list and reserve a network stall now — elect Bay Area, CA as your preferred market in the flow.
Why the Bay Area matters to a depot company
No other metro packs this many operators onto the same streets: Tesla carries passengers here (safety drivers aboard, under its California TCP permit), Waymo operates in San Francisco, and Zoox runs there too — rides currently free. Our tracker calls the Bay Area the densest multi-operator overlap in the country. Every one of those cars needs charging, cleaning, and a stall between rides — the layer DockDuty runs. The primer: what a robotaxi depot actually does, and the dated map of every live robotaxi metro.
And here’s the Bay Area’s particular angle: of Tesla’s seven robotaxi metros, this is the only one still supervised — the six unsupervised markets are elsewhere. Tesla is already carrying passengers here; the safety driver is the last variable. When it comes out, this market moves fast. How big is the fleet behind that? We keep a dated count: how many Tesla robotaxis there are.
One thing Bay Area buyers should know: today’s Tesla robotaxis are Tesla’s own fleet. The Cybercab — the car individual owners will put on the network — has no public order book yet. That’s the window: how to be ready on day one. (California buyer down south instead? There’s a page for Los Angeles too.)
Frequently asked questions
Is there a DockDuty depot in the Bay Area?
Not yet — and we won’t pretend otherwise. Depot #1 is targeted to open in Greater Orlando in Q4 2026, and our published roadmap is Florida-first (Miami on the ~80% trigger, Tampa following). From there we expand wherever the Cybercab market opens — and the Bay Area, the densest multi-operator overlap in the country, makes its own case loudly. Registering Bay Area interest directly shapes where we build next.
Can I own a Cybercab from the Bay Area before a Bay Area depot exists?
Yes — that’s the point of own-from-anywhere. Your reservation attaches to the DockDuty network, not to one city. Your car earns at the Greater Orlando depot while you watch from the Bay Area, and you can elect Bay Area, CA as your preferred market in the reservation flow.
How much could a Cybercab make?
Nobody has fleet-scale Cybercab earnings history yet — including us — so treat every number anyone quotes as a projection. The earnings calculator shows the full fee math for your assumptions and can email you your exact scenario.
