The mobile app allows users to search, book and
navigate to parking saving them the trouble of driving around in search of
space. The user gets a bird's eye view of all the legal parking lots with map
of locations, availability, pricing and other details and gets assured parking
with cashless payment and navigation.
"The exponential rise in demand for parking space is crippling the urban infrastructure and causing needless congestion. We believe only technology and data driven solutions can solve this chronic problem with efficient use of existing parking space," said Chirag Jain, cofounder of the company.
With a 25 member team the startup follows a data-centric approach that could help in giving better insights into urban traffic landscape. By saving time, fuel and energy, the technology is believed to help reduce urban traffic congestion and consequent pollution by up to 30%.
