What is Bikeep

Bikeep is the global smart infrastructure platform for bicycle and electric scooter parking, developed in Estonia and operated by Areatec in Brazil and Latin America. Unlike conventional bike racks that offer only a metal bar, Bikeep delivers a complete ecosystem: stations with automated frame and wheel locking, 4G IoT connectivity, a cyclist app, a cloud management console, and an open API for integration with urban mobility platforms.

The technology solves the main obstacle to adopting bicycles as a means of urban transport: insecurity at the destination. Research indicates that 2.4 million bicycles are stolen annually in Europe and the US, representing $1.4 billion in losses. With the patented two-point locking system (frame and wheel) and integrated anti-tamper alarm, Bikeep stations reduce theft by up to 99.9%.

Areatec operates Bikeep as a whitelabel solution, offering complete customization of brand, colors, and user experience for city halls, transport operators, and companies. All hardware, firmware, cloud, and app infrastructure is developed in-house by Bikeep, eliminating third-party dependence and ensuring unified technical support.

Product Line

Modular stations for every micromobility need, all managed by the same digital platform.

Bike Parking Station

Secure bicycle parking

Main station with two-point locking (frame and wheel), app or RFID access, pre-installed 4G SIM, and consumption lower than a desk lamp. Configurable from 5 to 20 spaces per module.

How It Works

From downloading the app to complete network management, every step is designed to be intuitive and fast.

01

Download the Bikeep App

Available for iOS and Android. Account creation in 30 seconds. The app works in 9 languages and is present in 32 countries.

02

Scan the QR Code

Find an available station on the app map, scan the QR code on the dock, and the lock opens automatically. Alternative: RFID or NFC card.

03

Park Securely

Position the bicycle and confirm in the app. The steel bar locks the frame while a second pin secures the wheel. The entire process takes less than 15 seconds.

04

Manage from Anywhere

Operators access the cloud console to monitor real-time occupancy, manage access, receive maintenance alerts, and export usage reports.

4-Layer Security

Bikeep's security system is designed for high-risk urban environments. The first layer is the patented two-point physical locking: a heavy steel bar secures the bicycle frame while a second mechanism fixes the wheel, resisting the most common theft tools.

The second layer is the anti-tamper alarm with an integrated speaker, which triggers immediately upon detecting tampering attempts. The third layer is integration with security cameras (compatible with Axis and Hikvision), which automatically records locking and unlocking events.

The fourth layer is 24/7 cloud monitoring. The operator console receives real-time alerts of any anomaly, allowing for an immediate response. This combination of physical and digital security is what allows Bikeep to guarantee a theft reduction of up to 99.9% in monitored installations.

Integrated Digital Platform

Hardware, firmware, cloud, and app developed under one roof. No fragile integrations, no third-party dependence.

Operation Console

Cloud dashboard to manage the entire network of stations. Real-time monitoring of occupancy, hardware health, maintenance alerts, and usage reports. Heartbeat system checks each station every 5 minutes.

App for Cyclists

Free app for iOS and Android in 9 languages. Cyclists find stations on the map, scan the QR code, and park in less than 15 seconds. Push notifications, session history, and issue reporting with photos.

Open REST API

Three integration models: public GeoJSON endpoint without authentication, service-to-service with OAuth2, and external user management. Real-time webhooks for session events and device alerts.

Complete White-Label

Total brand customization for operators and cities. Station colors, wraps on locking bars, advertising screens, app branding, and custom domain in the console. Areatec takes care of the experience, you keep your identity.

Secure E-Bike Charging

The accelerated growth of electric bicycles has brought a new challenge for urban managers: safety in charging lithium batteries. In New York alone, 268 fires caused by e-bike batteries were recorded in 2024. Regulations are becoming stricter worldwide, and the demand for managed charging infrastructure is growing proportionally.

The Bikeep charging station solves this problem with a practical approach: cyclists bring their own charger (compatible with any brand), connect it to the dock outlet, and both the bicycle and the charger are locked and protected during the process. The Fire Safety Relay system with automatic shutdown in 4 hours prevents overcharging and drastically reduces the risk of fire.

Each dock has individual circuit protection, and the centralized electrical cabinet manages power distribution for the entire station. The operator monitors consumption, charging duration, and the status of the safety relay remotely via the console.

Areatec as Official Partner

Areatec is the official representative of Bikeep for Brazil and Latin America, operating the product as a whitelabel solution within its smart urban mobility ecosystem. This means that city halls and operators receive complete local support, from project consulting to field maintenance, with the guarantee of a company with over 30 years of experience in technology for cities.

The whitelabel model allows for complete customization: stations can receive the visual identity of the city or operator, the app can be co-branded, and the management console integrates natively with other Areatec solutions such as Olho Vivo Patrol and Olho Vivo Parking.

This integration creates a unified mobility ecosystem: the same Aretron vehicle that inspects paid parking monitors Bikeep stations, generating consolidated micromobility data for public managers to make evidence-based decisions.
