About Us

Why Parking?

Parking is necessary at the end of every drive, but is inconvenient and time consuming. The current solution, valet parking with a human driver, is available only at limited locations.

Lack of real-time information on available parking spaces leads to more time (and money) wasted while parking. The inefficiency gets compounded even more due to slow ticket-based parking entry/exit systems.

In the US alone, the inefficiencies in parking (such as driving around, looking for a parking space) end up wasting about 930 million gallons of gas and emit 18.6 billion pounds of carbon emission annually. This problem needs an innovative solution.

Mission

Our mission is to revolutionize the parking experience for both the parking facility operators and the drivers: AI-powered Smart Parking Management and Auto Valet Parking system for the ultimate parking management and user experience.
