Leaving your parking spot? Hold it for a fellow NYC driver with a 5-minute reservation timer. Claimers sync their arrival in real-time with one-tap status updates.
15ft Fire Hydrant Radar

Curb Intelligence & Tow Alerts

Secure Driver Messaging
Coordinate your handoff seamlessly without sharing personal phone numbers or private data. Built-in end-to-end messaging keeps communication effortless and safe.

Spotto makes them simple.
New York City has over 1 million parking signs with overlapping rules: 3-hour meters, commercial loading restrictions, Alternate Side cleaning, and invisible 15-foot hydrant zones. Spotto synthesizes all open NYC curb data into clean, actionable visual layers.
