Gaining Momentum

White Fox Scooters was a legitimate early-stage micromobility startup (founded 2018) that provided docked e-scooters in Jersey City and partnered with private hotels (e.g., William Vale). However, the project faced regulatory hurdles (NYC Cease & Desist in 2020) and eventually merged into 'Today' mobility in 2023. The submission claims of reaching 'everyone' and that 'most people have used my product' are factually incorrect and exaggerated. The project effectively ceased independent operations, limiting its current utility and reach scores.

Description
White Fox Scooters is the first docked electric scooter solution for walkable cities and micro-communities, initially hosting our docks through private and public partnerships with hotels, apartment buildings, parking garages, corporate campuses, universities, and governments. Think Citi Bike but for electric scooters. We’re taking the electric scooter sharing model to the streets of NJ/NY (as well as all other walkable cities) since we truly believe it is the most fun and efficient way to get around.We’ve already set up exclusive partnerships with select hotels and over 50 parking garages that will be giving us space for our docks. The Arlo Hotels (Soho and NoMad Locations), Hotel 50 Bowery, the William Vale, and GGMC Parking Garages have signed on and we are in talks to expand to all 100 hotels in some of their hotel chains. The app is already live on the App Store and Google Play (Android), and we have launched with more than 5 docks in Jersey City, NJ!
