Challenge

Virtual station based bike sharing schemes that allow users to take bikes for short trips as well as lease bikes for longer periods can greatly improve quality of life and reduce CO2 emissions.

We work to support cities in the challenging of building the transportation services of the future. Bicycles combined with rail will have to be a core element in the cities of the future. Additionally our service addresses the following four challenges:

Reducing emission
Reducing congestiom
Improving public health
Better use of public space

Solution

We leverage data-driven technology to deliver dependable bike-sharing services to cities and citizens. Our end-to-end solutions integrate with public transportation systems and our virtual station based system enables us to optimize the use of existing infrastructure while providing flexible services – effectively addressing the challenges of both dockbased and free-floating systems.
