Problem
Finding affordable and available parking in dense urban environments is a persistent challenge for city residents. Existing parking options are often expensive, inconvenient, and do not fully utilize available residential parking spaces. This leads to frustration and wasted time for drivers seeking parking.
Solution

By listing their unused parking spots, members earn credits that can be used to reserve parking spaces from other members within the community. The platform aims to maximize parking availability and reduce parking costs for urban residents through a collaborative sharing model.
Target Audience
The primary target audience is urban residents in cities like Toronto, Vancouver, Calgary and Quebec City who own or rent residential parking spaces and are looking for affordable parking options.
