2026 Comparison

Levy Fleets vs Koloni

Koloni spreads across smart lockers, vending, delivery, and any-asset rental, with bikeshare as one of many modes. Levy is built end to end for e-scooter and e-bike fleet operators, bundling vehicles, software, payments, and managed operations, and offering revenue-aligned pricing instead of a per-vehicle software lease.

TL;DR: Koloni is a capable generalist for smart lockers and any-asset rental, and it can run a small-town or campus bikeshare, but it is a locker-and-lock company that added mobility, not a scooter-fleet operator. For a prospective e-scooter fleet, Levy wins on scooter-specific IoT depth, bundled OKAI and Segway vehicles, managed rider support and payment operations, parking-photo and regulatory compliance, and a revenue-share option that ties platform cost to actual rider revenue.

Koloni

Pocahontas, Iowa, USA

Per-vehicle leasing plus per-transaction fee; quote-based per deployment - Quote-based (reported ~$40/vehicle/mo plus 5% + $0.50 per transaction)
Small starter fleets (reported ~10 bikes on the entry tier) up to a few hundred assets
Small towns and rural communities, Universities and campuses

The real question: a per-vehicle software lease across many rental modes, or a scooter-first operating partner?

Published case studies put Koloni around $40 to $50 per vehicle per month with a reported 5% + $0.50 per-transaction cut, a fixed per-vehicle bill you owe whether or not the scooters ride. Levy's Managed model is 20% of GMV (15% at 100-249 vehicles on annual terms) with a $250/mo minimum, and it bundles vehicle sourcing, payments, disputes, rider support, and compliance work that a locker-first platform leaves to the operator. For a seasonal or early-stage scooter fleet, revenue-aligned pricing plus managed operations usually beats a per-vehicle lease attached to a generalist rental platform.

When to Choose Each Platform

Choose Levy Fleets if you...

  • You are launching or scaling an e-scooter or e-bike fleet and want a platform built specifically for that, not a locker company that added mobility
  • You want vehicles, software, payments, and support bundled, with help sourcing OKAI and Segway hardware
  • You prefer revenue-share pricing that costs $0 when the fleet is idle over a fixed per-vehicle software lease
  • You need native scooter IoT integrations with real-time telemetry and remote controller commands, not just smart-lock unlock
  • You need parking-photo verification, AI damage detection, violation management, and MDS/GBFS feeds for US city compliance
  • You want managed rider support, dispute and chargeback handling, fraud detection, and tax tooling (W-9, 1099-K) built in
  • You want a white-label rider app plus loyalty, referral, and insurance workflows included
  • You want to launch in about 7 days and can start with as few as 4 scooters
  • You want US-based support from a team focused on scooter fleet operations

Choose Koloni if you...

  • You need smart lockers, package delivery, storage, service, or vending alongside or instead of mobility
  • You want to rent out non-vehicle assets or equipment on the same platform
  • You run a small-town or campus bikeshare and want a simple lock-and-rack model rather than scooter-specific operations
  • You already use Koloni or Accessa lockers and want mobility under the same vendor
  • You are comfortable running rider support, payments, disputes, and compliance in-house
  • You want to confirm current per-deployment pricing directly with Koloni sales

About Koloni

Koloni (Koloni, Inc., mobility product name FleetOS) is a US-based shared-mobility and smart-rental software company founded in 2016 and co-founded by CEO Brian Dewey and Kyle Sheker. Koloni is best known for smart-lock and smart-locker technology and a 'rental of anything' model that spans bikes, e-scooters, golf carts, and delivery vehicles as well as lockers, storage, package delivery, service, and vending. Riders locate, reserve, unlock, and pay through a branded Koloni app or a white-label version. The company has expanded its locker business under the Accessa brand (accessa.io), and its kolonifleets.io and koloni.io domains now redirect there. Koloni made its name giving small towns and universities an affordable lock-and-rack bikeshare rather than running large scooter fleets.

Koloni Features

  • Branded Koloni rider app plus white-label option
  • FleetOS fleet management dashboard
  • Bike share, e-scooter, golf cart, and delivery-vehicle rental
  • Smart lockers and any-asset rental (LockerOS / Accessa)
  • Self-service kiosks with vending, storage, delivery, and service modes
  • Koloni smart-lock hardware with geofenced-rack parking
  • Reserve, unlock, and pay in-app
  • Membership, pay-per-use, and promotional passes
  • Real-time dashboard: vehicle location, battery, ride history, maintenance
  • Automated alerts for low battery, offline vehicles, and mechanical issues
  • Geofencing and parking control
  • API access and white-label options
  • Refurbished-bike leasing with software bundled (reported)
  • Anonymous ridership and revenue reporting

Koloni Pricing

Koloni does not publish a standard rate card. The FleetOS pricing page now redirects to the company's Accessa smart-locker site, so current plan pricing is effectively quote-based per deployment. Publicly reported figures from bikeshare case studies put Koloni hardware-plus-software leasing at roughly $40 per bike per month for refurbished bikes and about $50 per month for newer bikes, with software access bundled, plus a reported per-transaction fee of 5% + $0.50 taken from rider payments. An earlier Fast Company report cited roughly $35 per device per month. These are third-party reported figures, not a current published price list, and Koloni bundles mobility, smart lockers, and asset rental under one platform rather than a scooter-specific plan.
