From The Field: Glide's Beta Testing in Seattle [Video]
July 14, 2026
Amos Miller here, Founder and CEO of Glidance with an exciting update!
As Glidance begins its beta testing, our first step is what we call our Seattle Pilot Study. Over the course of September and October, we have been thoroughly testing Glide on two main routes in Seattle - one near Amos’ house, and another, which is a familiar route of one of our preorder customers in the area.
It’s been an incredibly dynamic and productive process of real-world testing, and then heading straight back to the lab for technical troubleshooting.
Take a peek at the latest updates, and a more detailed explanation of this first stage of Beta testing in the video below!
