Detroit’s Grounded just landed $5M in seed funding to revolutionize van customization—offering electric and gas-powered mobile workspaces for small businesses. Originally targeting “van life,” they pivoted when EV market shifts forced them to embrace flexibility. Founder Sam Shapiro realized serving the broader market meant supporting gas vans too. Now, with a massive 50,000-square-foot Detroit factory launching this month, Grounded is scaling its modular system to fit any chassis. Clients span food trucks, medical fleets, and even veterinary services—with explosive growth in public safety and commercial sectors. They’re not just building vans—they’re engineering smart, software-driven interiors that turn any vehicle into a specialized mobile office.
