8D (Acquired by Lyft)

8D Technologies was a technology provider focused on bike-sharing systems. The company is known for developing the technological platform for the Bixi system, which includes wireless bike station terminals, RFID bike dock technology, and software systems powered by solar energy and grid-charged batteries. They also created the Spotcycle smartphone app, which helps users locate bike stations.

8D Technologies merged with Motivate, a major bike-share operator, enhancing Motivate's technological capabilities. This merger allowed 8D's innovations to be integrated into bike-share operations across various cities. After the merger, their technology continued to support Motivate's bike-share fleets, contributing to Lyft's multi-modal mobility offerings.
