Zeen®, by Exokinetics, is a cutting-edge multi-purpose mobility device that is transforming the way people with mobility challenges navigate their world. Exokinetics is proud to announce the contract award by the Department of Veterans Affairs - Federal Supply Schedule, number 36F79725D0170, as of July 1, 2025. This contract ensures the government receives best pricing and services, making the Zeen readily available for veterans in the VA Medical program and other government employees.
Recognized as one of the Best Inventions of 2023, Zeen offers life-changing technology that restores mobility independence, confidence, dignity, and quality of life.
Designed and developed by a team led by Hall-of-Fame inventor and Oscar winner Garrett Brown, Zeen offers the perfect solution for veterans who want more mobility independence than a traditional walker or wheelchair can offer. Ideal for people looking to maintain or regain mobility in their legs, the Zeen device safely transitions a person from sitting to standing, and then promotes walking and even coasting — all without the fear of falling. Unlike many conventional mobility aids, Zeen uniquely allows users to use their own bodies to move freely and confidently under their own power, not relying on motors or batteries. Whether at home or on the go, the Zeen easily folds compactly to fit in any car and can be gate-checked for air travel.

The Zeen provides the technology for an active-minded person to stand confidently, walk safely, and significantly reduce the risk of falling.”
