About ButterFLi

Founding Story

Delilah Lanoix and John Harris, owners of SMS Transportation, are experienced specialty fleet entrepreneurs.  Having been in the NEMT transportation business for over 25 years, they saw first-hand just how inefficient their industry was for both their riders, but also their fleet.  Specialty fleets typically see a 40-50% inefficiency in their business and assisted rides don’t always have a perfect experience.

Delilah and John took it upon themselves to transform the industry by providing more value to their fleets and most importantly to the riders. That’s when ButterFLi was created.

“We saw a vision of how technology and service could rapidly change this industry,” says Lanoix.

On-demand mobility is something most of us have come to expect, but if you need some assistance or a specialized vehicle, it’s a different story with limited options. That’s where ButterFLi comes in. We’ve created a platform that connects existing businesses together into a network that can handle on-demand requests.
