Bikademy Information

Bikademy is an innovative product for cycling tourism and urban mobility. Bikademy encourages people to cycle, to explore natural and cultural heritage by bike, and rewards them for doing so. Our main tool is a mobile app, and all registered users (free of charge for end users) become Bikademy Students. The app has two main features: Studies (tourism) and Challenges (mobility): 1. Studies (Tourism) This feature functions as an “academy” with Studies representing different regions or cities. Each Study consists of Exams (locations with natural and cultural heritage). The task of a Bikademy Student is to cycle to the designated Exam location, using any route and at any time, take a photo, and check in via the app, thereby completing the Exam. Upon passing all Exams within a Study, the Bikademy Student earns a reward. 2. Challenges (Mobility) This feature is intended for all citizens, not just athletes. It’s free to use, and we reward top performers monthly, with separate categories for men and women. To accommodate different levels, Challenges has four categories based on total daily distances: 0-10 km / daily 10-20 km / daily 20-60 km / daily 60+ km / daily Besides tracking distances, the app’s homepage shows CO2 savings compared to car travel and total rides completed. This feature, as Internal Challenges, is also designed for cities and regions or companies to encourage residents or employees to use bicycles in daily life. For these cities or companies, we create a custom made dashboard showing citizens’ or employees' total kilometers, CO2 savings, and a leaderboard across all four categories. At the end of each year, we also provide a map of all rides within the area to aid in urban planning for cities. Additional features: Special Challenges: These campaigns focus on CO2 savings and distance covered within a set timeframe (up to two weeks) for various occasions Special Studies: In interesting locations, we open a smaller, temporary Study
