NEW: Bunch Launching AI SmartBike+

NEW: Sick of pedaling your kids around your neighborhood in the sunshine?

AI can help!

Bunch Bikes is proud to announce the upcoming launch of the Bunch SmartBike+, an AI-powered biking experience that will make your family bike adventure more efficient than ever. 

Process your surroundings

Your SmartBike+ is equipped with 360° camera system as well as sensors that detect motion, vibration, temperature and sound. Our expansive new 30" 8K ScreenView display recognizes and alerts you to oncoming cars, traffic hazards, and other road users, ensuring you remain constantly informed while effortlessly screening out irrelevant information such as clouds, trees and birds. 

Greet your neighbors

ScreenView integrates with your phone and email contacts! When your SmartBike+ recognizes another road user who may be familiar to you, both you and your contact will receive a pop-up HandWave notification. Say goodbye to accidental greetings intended for "that other bike lady!" You'll also have the option to follow your contact on social media and purchase any accessories they are using. 

Interact with your kids

Kids got a lot to say? Choose from our library of 8 AI personalities to listen to their stories and answer even their trickiest questions! In early testing, our powerful new ChatMagic 4+ engine provided up to 82% accurate information. Your kids can ride home chatting happily with Ms. Rachel, Bluey or Doc McStuffins - or choose Mr. Beast or Taylor Swift for your tweens and teens.

With our customizable content filters, you are in control. Whether your kids want to learn about turtles, need advice about a mean friend, or just won't stop poking each other, the Parent Dashboard lets you upvote responses that are more whimsical, more informative, or more stern. 

Multitasking efficiency

Got a couple more emails to answer? With SmartBike+ Premium, your kids' conversation transcript is continuously uploaded to our cloud storage, so you can review it later. Free up your travel time to get work done on the go - and make your bike ride more efficient than ever!

With our multitasking-optimized ScreenView, you'll maximize productivity for your employer and avoid unnecessary downtime while you ride. First month of subscription is free! Upgrade to our annual plan to add privacy protection.

Integrated navigation 

Simply tell your SmartBike+ where you're headed - preschool dropoff, the grocery store or home. Your BikeMe smart assistant will ensure you're on the fastest, most direct route. No more random detours to grab ice cream or look at a construction site - your SmartBike+ keeps you on track and on schedule. 

Feature updates

The Original SmartBike+ is our flagship model, and initial launch will focus on features optimized for biking with kids - including accessibility for a wide range of mobility, adaptive and sensory needs. Later in the season, we expect to release updates for our K9 and adult passengers as well. With the upcoming DogSense Pro update, your bike can learn to read and understand your pup's thoughts and desires, providing you with a constant stream of updates from "Car!" to "Squirrel!"

Taking your sweetie out for a spin? Activate DateNite Mode for mood lighting, autogenerated romantic music, and an exclusive adults-only AI personality specially customized for your loved one's interests and desires. Note: Enable access to your partner's phone and browser history for best results. 

All software updates are provided OTA (Over The Air) for premium subscribers!

Educating consumers

With technical challenges largely resolved, our SmartBike+ team is hard at work educating consumers about the benefits of the AI bike ride experience. 

"To be honest, there's a lot of resistance," says Aaron Powell, Founder & CEO of Bunch Bikes. "People seem to like just riding their bikes."
