What YesWay does
YesWay (北京智驾互联信息服务有限公司 / 智驾互联 / 九五智驾), publicly listed on China's National Equities Exchange and Quotations (NEEQ:430725), is a Beijing-based B2B provider of automotive telematics and connected vehicle services. Established as the current entity in 2011 and employing 101-250 staff, the company delivers outsourced connected-vehicle operations for automotive OEMs through long-term service contracts — its named clients include Mercedes-Benz (Mercedes me platform), Honda (CONNECT 3.0 and 4.0 via Hainan Xinsi), BAIC (Arcfox brand), and content partner Leishi. Services are OEM-embedded at the vehicle-manufacturing stage rather than sold aftermarket, positioning YesWay as an outsourced operations layer for automakers rather than a consumer-facing technology vendor.
The technology stack centers on the YCloud (智驾云控平台) cloud-based vehicle control platform and a module portfolio spanning emergency-rescue coordination (智驾救援), V2X communication across V2P/V2R/V2V/V2N delivered through the Y-CarPlus vehicle-side application, and eSIM-enabled connectivity that achieved the industry's first mass-production deployment in the BAIC Arcfox Alpha S·HI in 2023. The roadmap extends beyond core telematics into four additional platforms listed on the corporate website as "coming soon" — Resource Platform, Open Platform, Car Mall, and Cloud Computing Platform — alongside third-party integrations such as in-vehicle karaoke with Leishi. The company holds multiple certifications including China's first CCSO 4A call-center certification (2013), CMMI, ISO27001, ISO9001, and PRC telecom operating licenses, which together serve as gating credentials for delivering telecom-adjacent connected services.
YesWay monetizes through subscription-recurring telematics contracts with OEMs and managed-service retainers bundling call-center operations (I/B/E Call), dealer service support, user-satisfaction management, and new-media operations; pricing is contract-based and not publicly disclosed. Operationally the firm runs two Beijing facilities — an R&D and marketing headquarters in Chaoyang District and the newly inaugurated Zhijia Panoramic Cloud Service Center in Changping District (September 2023) — and its geographic footprint is domestic-only, serving Chinese OEMs and the China-market operations of foreign brands.
