Vogo

IoT-enabled scooter rental for last-mile connectivity

Overview

Vogo provides an app-based scooter rental service in Indian cities to support last-mile urban mobility. The platform uses IoT-connected scooters unlocked and operated via a mobile app with keyless access, offering both short-term per-kilometer rides (VOGO NOW) and longer-term subscriptions (VOGO KEEP) with payments tied to usage. It differentiates itself through proprietary IoT integration that enables dockless, self-service access and an asset-light model, and it now focuses on integrating first- and last-mile connectivity with public transit after being acquired by Chalo, while transitioning the fleet to electric. Its goal is to improve urban transport efficiency by making convenient, on-demand mobility and electric shared options a seamless part of daily commuting and public transit.
