Our Mission

EZGlyd exists to fundamentally transform urban cargo delivery through sustainable, patent-protected foldable mobility solutions engineered specifically for delivery professionals navigating today’s congested cities. Born from firsthand observation of the daily struggles facing New York City’s 65,000 active delivery riders, we recognized that existing transportation options create more problems than they solve—illegal sidewalk parking that generates ~10,000 monthly violations, constant exposure to weather extremes, and vehicles that consume valuable urban space while offering limited cargo capacity.

Our mission centers on reimagining the relationship between delivery professionals, their equipment, and the urban environments they serve. By developing foldable electric cargo scooters that collapse in under 30 seconds and reduce parking footprint by up to 75%, we enable riders to legally store vehicles inside apartments, restaurants, and delivery hubs—eliminating the need for scarce street parking. This approach doesn’t merely solve individual rider challenges; it addresses systemic urban mobility issues contributing to transportation’s 28% share of U.S. greenhouse gas emissions while supporting the gig economy valued at over $556 billion globally Brooklyn Downtown Star.

Our Core Values & Principles

Rider-Centric Innovation

Every design decision at EZGlyd begins with delivery professionals. We invested over 500 hours shadowing and interviewing riders across New York’s five boroughs, documenting their pain points, aspirations, and daily workflows. This research revealed critical insights: riders complete 30-40 deliveries during 10-hour shifts covering 60-80 miles daily, yet traditional e-bikes and mopeds offer limited protection from weather and virtually no secure storage solutions. Our Micromobility Research in Queens confirmed that parking violations cost individual riders upwards of $2,400 annually—a financial burden that directly impacts their $18-25 per hour earnings Micromobility in Queens.

Sustainable Design

Environmental stewardship isn’t an afterthought; it’s engineered into every component. Transportation accounts for 28% of U.S. greenhouse gas emissions, with urban freight demand projected to surge 164% between 2019 and 2050 International Transport Forum. EZGlyd vehicles feature all-electric drivetrains producing zero direct emissions while consuming 40% less energy per mile compared to conventional e-bikes through lightweight materials and regenerative braking systems. Each vehicle in operation reduces carbon emissions by 0.5 tons annually while enabling the 2.5 billion zero-emission delivery miles we project by 2030.

Urban Space Stewardship

Cities face a spatial crisis. With urban freight demand accelerating dramatically, our foldable design philosophy directly combats the problem of scarce street space. Traditional delivery vehicles occupy approximately 20 square feet when parked; EZGlyd scooters fold to under 5 square feet—a 75% reduction that allows indoor storage. This innovation addresses the critical issues outlined in our analysis of NYC Sidewalk Parking Challenges, where delivery vehicles contribute to ~10,000 monthly parking violations and $1.2 million in fines. By 2030, our fleet of 100,000 vehicles will reclaim over 1,000,000 square feet of urban space previously dedicated to vehicle storage.

Intellectual Property Integrity

True innovation requires protection. EZGlyd maintains a growing patent portfolio including two design patents and one non-provisional utility patent, establishing defensible competitive moats around our foldable cargo platform. Our Patent-Protected Technology encompasses the proprietary folding mechanism, integrated cargo management system, and weather-resistant enclosure design that collectively deliver the industry’s fastest collapse time at under 30 seconds while supporting 150+ pound payloads.

Community Partnership

Lasting transformation demands collaboration beyond product development. EZGlyd actively partners with city agencies, advocacy organizations, and delivery platforms to shape progressive urban mobility policies. Our Micromobility Advocacy Program works directly with NYC’s Department of Transportation to establish designated micro-mobility parking zones and educate riders on sustainable practices. These partnerships ensure our solutions align with broader urban planning objectives while creating support networks for the delivery professionals who power our cities.

Social & Environmental Responsibility

Addressing Gig Economy Challenges

The 65,000 active delivery riders in New York City—and millions more globally—face systemic challenges: unpredictable earnings, vehicle maintenance costs, and regulatory vulnerability. EZGlyd’s rider-centric model directly addresses these issues by reducing operational expenses through 60% lower total cost of ownership compared to traditional e-bikes. Our vehicles’ weather protection increases viable working days by 15%, directly boosting annual earnings potential while the foldable design eliminates $2,400 average annual parking fines.

Environmental Accountability

Every EZGlyd vehicle represents tangible climate action. With transportation generating 28% of U.S. greenhouse gas emissions EPA, our fleet’s 0.5-ton annual CO2 reduction per vehicle compounds to 180,000 tons by 2030. This achievement stems from the 40% energy efficiency improvement over conventional e-bikes, validated through our Sustainable Fleet Strategy Research.
