Hyperloop Transportation Technologies ( HTT ) is a US company that is working on the development and implementation of a Hyperloop concept, as it was presented in a white paper by Elon Musk in August 2013 .

HTT, which is essentially defined by crowdsourcing , is neither under his direction nor is it in his possession. The concept also differs with regard to the levitation technology: While Musk provided air cushions, HTT wants to use the passive inductrack .

The publicly visible activities of the company are limited to the self-presentation and the initiation of project studies together with cities and states.
