LA already rides driverless. Get on the ownership side.
Los Angeles is one of the roughly eleven US metros where Waymo runs driverless service today (August 2026) — and it’s one of the largest rideshare markets in the country, which makes it the biggest prize on the robotaxi map. Tesla’s network doesn’t run in LA yet; when the Cybercab market opens in California, this is the metro everyone will be racing to. If you want to be on the ownership side of that wave, this page is the honest version of how that works with DockDuty today.
The honest status: no Los Angeles depot yet
Where DockDuty stands · August 2026
Depot #1 is targeted to open in Greater Orlando in Q4 2026, and the one founding book — 50 stalls, network-wide — is open and converting.
Our published roadmap is Florida-first: Miami breaks ground when Orlando is ~80% reserved and operating, Tampa follows on the same trigger, potentially as parallel builds. From there we expand wherever the Cybercab market opens — and a metro the size of Los Angeles, already riding driverless with Waymo, is exactly what that expansion points at.
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 Los Angeles, today
One founding book of 50 stalls, network-wide. Reserve for $450 — fully refundable until your Cybercab is onboarded — elect Los Angeles, CA in the flow, and your car earns at depot #1 the day it arrives.
You don't have to wait for an LA 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 Los Angeles on the same dashboard our founding owners use today.
- Elect Los Angeles, CA as your preferred market right in the reservation flow — when the network reaches your city, your preference is already on file.

The Los Angeles 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 California depot moves from roadmap to real, and your interest is counted when we pick the next metro. No newsletter, no drip.

Why Los Angeles matters to a depot company
LA is the biggest prize on the map, and it isn’t close: one of the largest rideshare markets in the US, spread across a metro built on freeway distances that keep ride fleets earning all day — and it already rides driverless, with Waymo operating service here today (one of its ~11 US metros as of August 2026). Every driverless car on those freeways 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.
One thing LA buyers should know: today’s Los Angeles robotaxis are Waymo’s own fleet — Tesla’s network doesn’t operate in LA yet (as of August 2026), and the Cybercab — the car individual owners will put on the network — has no public order book yet. That’s the window: when the Cybercab market opens in California, the people who reserved early and elected LA are first in line. How the two networks compare: Waymo vs. Tesla robotaxi. (California buyer up north instead? There’s a page for the Bay Area too.) And how to be ready on day one: can you buy a Tesla Cybercab?
Frequently asked questions
Is there a DockDuty depot in Los Angeles?
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 Los Angeles, the biggest rideshare market on the map and already riding driverless with Waymo, is exactly the kind of metro that expansion points at. Registering LA interest directly shapes where we build next.
Can I own a Cybercab from Los Angeles before an LA depot exists?
Yes — that’s the point of own-from-anywhere. Your reservation attaches to the DockDuty network, not to one city. Reserve a stall today ($450, fully refundable until your Cybercab is onboarded), your car earns at depot #1 in Greater Orlando, and you watch it from Los Angeles. In the reservation flow you can elect Los Angeles, CA as your preferred market.
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.
