Damon Launches Damon I/O, The Digital Backbone Transforming Personal Mobility To Safe, Smart AI Connected Experiences

Innovative AI SaaS platform to enable motorcycle OEMs and fleet operators to deploy advanced rider intelligence and connected services without years of development

VANCOUVER, BC, June 4, 2025/CNW/ - Damon Inc. (DMNIF) ("Damon" or the "Company"), a designer and developer of electric motorcycles and other personal mobility products that seek to empower the personal mobility sector through innovation, today announced the official launch of Damon I/O, a comprehensive rider intelligence and connected services platform designed to transform every ride into a smarter, safer, and more connected experience. The white-labeled platform offers personal mobility OEMs and fleet operators the ability to rapidly deploy advanced digital experiences that were previously impossible or required years of costly custom development.

With the global last-mile delivery market exceeding $100 billion¹ and personal mobility undergoing rapid electrification, DAMON I/O addresses the lack of digital infrastructure to collect data and enhance rider safety, providing recurring revenue opportunities through software.

Furthermore, Damon I/O addresses a critical gap in the personal mobility industry, where manufacturers struggle with fragmented data systems, limited rider insights, and disconnected post-sale experiences. The platform delivers a complete suite of connected vehicle capabilities including real-time diagnostics, over-the-air updates, predictive maintenance alerts, branded mobile applications, and fleet management dashboards – all deployable within months rather than years.

"The personal mobility industry is at an inflection point where digital experiences define brand differentiation," said Dominique Kwong, CEO of Damon. "Damon I/O is purpose-built mobility infrastructure that can turn any personal mobility brand into a data-driven company overnight. We're offering manufacturers the tools to compete with the most advanced connected vehicle platforms in the world. Data by itself means nothing – it's contextual information that creates monetizable value."

The platform's innovative capabilities extend far beyond traditional applications. Damon I/O introduces groundbreaking Emergency Last Mile Responder functionality, enabling civilian delivery riders to seamlessly transition into mission-critical roles – such as transporting blood supplies or medical equipment – with intelligent routing and dynamic visual signaling that alerts the public to their urgent status.

Unlike generic IoT solutions that require extensive customization, Damon I/O is built specifically for vehicles and personal mobility from the ground up. Damon believes the platform represents a first-of-its-kind fusion of wearables, personal mobility vehicles, and AI-powered logistics, designed for the smart cities and decentralized emergency infrastructure of tomorrow.

"Every ride becomes actionable data," Mr. Kwong emphasized. "We're offering OEMs and fleet operators the ability to tap into predictive diagnostics, fleet intelligence, and post-sale software experiences—creating new revenue opportunities in a historically hardware-only market."

For personal mobility manufacturers and fleet operators, Damon I/O offers immediate access to:

• Advanced safety features and real-time diagnostics that enhance rider protection
• Rider-state monitoring that adapts safety systems based on vital signs and stress levels
• Seamless over-the-air software updates that keep vehicles current without dealer visits
• Predictive maintenance capabilities that reduce downtime and service costs
• White-labeled mobile applications that strengthen brand loyalty
• Smart logistics systems enabling multiple vehicles to act as nodes in an intelligent delivery network
• Integration capabilities with safety apparel including airbag vests and dynamic signaling
• Insurance-ready telematics data enabling usage-based insurance models

The platform addresses critical industry challenges including safety risks for last-mile delivery riders, inefficient routing causing high operational costs, and urban congestion from oversized delivery vehicles.

The platform also represents a significant opportunity to drive shareholder value, introducing a high-margin SaaS layer to a traditionally hardware-dominated market. By focusing on opportunities to monetize ride data and generate recurring software revenue streams, Damon I/O creates scalable business models that extend far beyond one-time vehicle sales.

"With Damon I/O, we're dramatically expanding our business model," explained Mr. Kwong. "While we continue to develop our innovative electric motorcycles, this platform allows us to scale software services globally without the capital constraints of manufacturing. It's a powerful complement to our hardware business that opens up significant additional market opportunities."

"Damon I/O offers our prospective partners the ability to accelerate digital transformation," added Mr. Kwong. "We believe we are uniquely positioned because we understand both sides of the equation - our hardware expertise informs our software development, while our software platform can enhance not just our own motorcycles but any personal mobility vehicle. We're essentially telling hardware companies: keep making great hardware -- we'll make it smart. Our vision is advancing humanity through intelligent personal mobility and safety innovation."

The platform is available immediately for OEM partnerships and fleet deployments. Damon is actively engaging with major automotive and technology companies seeking to expand beyond traditional vehicle design into intelligent logistics and personal mobility ecosystems. Damon I/O can be customized and integrated with existing hardware systems, providing manufacturers with a turnkey solution to modernize their product offerings and create new revenue opportunities through connected services.

"Whether it's iconic motorcycle manufacturers looking to connect with new generations, electric motorcycle companies advancing their offerings, or delivery giants optimizing their last-mile operations--DAMON I/O is the answer," noted Mr. Kwong.
