Autobrain is a Boca Raton-based connected-car company that turns almost any post-1995 vehicle into a 'smart car' with a plug-and-play OBD-II device paired to a mobile app. Built with input from EMTs and first responders, it delivers automatic crash response that dials 911 to your exact location, real-time GPS tracking, teen/senior/baby safety modes, vehicle-health diagnostics, roadside assistance, and fleet monitoring - all on a low-cost device and monthly subscription aimed at families and small businesses.
CLIP is a Brooklyn-based clean mobility company that makes a portable, tool-free device that clips onto a regular bicycle's front fork and turns it into an e-bike in seconds. Founded in 2018 by Som Ray and Clement de Alcala, the friction-drive motor weighs under 10 pounds, fits in a backpack, and provides pedal assistance up to 15 mph - positioning itself as a far cheaper, lighter alternative to buying a full e-bike. The company sells to consumers starting at $499 and is pushing a lower-cost model, BOLT, aimed at bike-share fleets and emerging markets.
