Yulu offers an affordable solution for people and goods mobility through its tech-enabled platform and smart electric bikes, addressing commuters’ first and last-mile travel needs while also supporting efficient last-mile deliveries.

Problem

  • Urban mobility gap: India’s urban transportation system is inefficient, further strained by traffic congestion, and lacking in adequate public transit options.
  • Limited infrastructure: India has 60+ cities with populations exceeding 1M but has fewer than 20 operational city metros. Public buses and private cars compete for the limited road space.
  • Lack of accessibility and affordability: Over 60% of city trips are within a 5km radius, and with a fast-growing goods delivery market, many unemployed individuals want to work but are hindered by the limited access to affordable mobility.

Solution

Yulu provides a vast network of smart, dockless electric 2-wheelers that utilize IoT technology, operate at 25kph speeds, and boast a full-stack solution for reliable battery swapping powered by Yuma.

  • Smart features: The two-wheelers are designed with anti-theft and tracking features, and ergonomically designed goods carriers that can hold up to 15kg.
  • Affordable and accessible service: Yulu offers an all-inclusive daily package of ~$2.75, with users having the potential to earn $12-15 per day.
  • Mobile app: Yulu’s app ensures user accessibility and smooth on-the-ground operations with a relocation map, swapping workbench, and repair and maintenance updates.
