Bike Index is the #1 open-source platform for universities to manage bikes and keep them in campus members' hands
All-in-One Database
Streamlined registration, tracking, and impound management with clear workflows for lost and stolen bike cases across all campus departments.
Extensive Tools & Workflows
QR stickers, searchable catalogs, direct messaging, and legacy transfer tools help you modernize operations and reduce administrative burden.
e-Vehicle & Micromobility Management
Manage campus vehicles, including e-personal mobility devices (EPAMDs), by verifying UL certification and centralizing safety documentation.
Easier management, stronger data, smarter campus mobility oversight through:
- Our nationally recognized, trusted platform replaces fragmented or outdated in-house tracking systems
- All-in-One management tool features streamlined reporting and tracking with clear, prescriptive workflows for lost/stolen bike cases
- Reduces administrative burden by improving interdepartmental coordination (campus police, transportation, student services) and aligning your campus with national best practices in bike theft prevention
Greater security, higher recovery potential, and empowered riders:
- Our publicly searchable record of database is the first line of defense against bike theft and makes resale of stolen bikes significantly harder
