How it works

    Video from cameras you already have. We agree a safe way to share it first.

  2. A clipboard with tally marks

    We count the spaces

    We count how many spaces are taken, hour by hour. Nobody has to stand in your lot.

  3. A short report with a bar chart, marked done

    You get the report

    A short report and a spreadsheet that show your busiest times.

What you get back

  • How many spaces were taken, hour by hour
  • Your busiest times, by day and by area
  • A short report and a spreadsheet you can share
  • A clear note on anything the cameras couldn’t see

For lot and garage owners, property managers, campuses, hospitals, event venues, and the engineering and planning firms that run parking studies.

Technical details, for engineers and planners

We only use video you’re allowed to share.

No new cameras, no live watching, no reading number plates, and no tracking of people.
