The public parking industry has been static for decades. With old fashioned ticketing mechanics that cause traffic, and clunky ill-updated monitoring systems that leave wrongfully parked visitors slipping through the cracks often, it’s high time for modernization. This is why we at InsaneLab began to look beyond the red tape of the larger companies to create a better solution which InsaneParking is the result of. 

The parking industry itself is still in recovery from the Covid-19 pandemic, having seen revenues fall 56% lower than they were seeing in 2019.

At InsaneLab our employees have over 30 years in the parking business managing hardware for gates, access control, LPR, as well as developing software for reservations, revenue, access control, geofencing, and more. 

We’ve been approached by parking operators, universities and airports to develop mobile parking apps, monitoring dashboards and integrations to modernize the process & create more effective solutions. 

Institutions like these had previously been working with vendors against a steep transaction percentage per reservation. This without providing the expedient feature & bug fix updates due to their size and scope.

As a consolidated development incubator we are able to not only provide our client branded application suite InsaneParking to manage their parking operations, but our direct turnaround time, clear feature updates, and well-managed discovery resulting in quality tailored systems.

In working to deliver better solutions to our customers, we learned the ins, outs, and struggles of the parking industry and have become intimately familiar with the current trends and problems.

GEOFENCE TECHNOLOGY (Touchless Parking)

InsaneParking’s touchless parking module features a paid access control solution to gated areas utilizing geofencing that is applied to an array of markets. Access is provided via users smartphone geodata in app and can be controlled using in-lane hardware or entirely via digital geofencing.

This solution is entirely software based, providing an extreme level of accuracy that allows the control of adjacent lanes using nothing but geofence technology. Additionally, it can even locate multiple users in one carpool vehicle for accurate payment processing in various scenarios. 

This means that for parking garages, car washes, gated communities, and more, individuals looking for paid access to a facility are only required to have the mobile app available. No more ticketing or manual payment processing.

All the user would need to do is pull into their desired lane, and our geofence solution will automatically take care of the rest. Access would be provided via mobile device, and you’d be able to identify the exact time of exiting the facility as well, which is particularly helpful with parking enforcement. 

PARKING ENFORCEMENT DASHBOARDS

For those relying on outdated softwares for parking enforcement, this will come as a relief. InsaneLab’s parking enforcement dashboards are created for ease of use and to take out as many steps in the process that can be handled automatically. 

These old enterprises use cameras, printers, and systems that have to be operated manually to confirm whether a vehicle has wrongfully parked or has a valid reservation. With our new solution, those will communicate automatically and visible within our dashboard – all together, creating a seamless experience and increasing the accuracy of catching wrongfully parked vehicles.

The system itself leaves less room for error while streamlining the process for parking enforcers in the field.  

APPLICATIONS & VERTICALS

Versatility and scalability has been cornerstones in this development. Therefore the complete application suite is very applicable to other industries as well such as gated communities and car washes.

With the ability to track where a car is parked and process the payments through a seamless application for users, it also allows an automated approach to protecting gated communities and managing multiple lanes of cars going through car washes. 

The multipurpose nature of this application suite has allowed us to develop solutions in these industries and cater directly to the needs of these businesses as well. 

The future of parking is effortless, and high functioning for both the customer and the business and employees managing operations. With these new feature sets, we aim to make a huge difference in the industries that can be impacted positively by this technology, as well as their customers.
