Our Team Founding Vision

EZGlyd emerged from the shared conviction that urban delivery professionals deserve better tools for the essential work they perform daily. Our founders—veterans of urban mobility, sustainable transportation, and last-mile logistics—spent months shadowing New York City’s 65,000 active delivery riders, documenting the systemic challenges that plague conventional mobility solutions: illegal sidewalk parking generating ~10,000 monthly violations, constant weather exposure, and vehicles that consume valuable urban space while offering limited cargo capacity Brooklyn Downtown Star.

This firsthand research revealed that existing e-bikes and mopeds force riders to choose between legality and livelihood, with average annual parking fines reaching $2,400—directly impacting their $18-25 hourly earnings Micromobility in Queens. Our founders recognized that solving these challenges required not just incremental improvements, but a fundamental reimagining of delivery vehicle design, ownership, and urban integration.
