Core offering

Parkdepot provides digital parking management solutions for businesses using AI-powered license plate recognition (ANPR/ALPR) technology. The company offers two core products — Carpay for paid parking and Supervision for unpaid parking monitoring — providing barrier-free and ticketless parking experiences. Parkdepot acts as a full-service partner, handling everything from site concept and installation to ongoing operations as the parking facility operator.

Product overview

Parkdepot is a digital parking management platform offering two distinct products: Carpay for paid parking and Supervision for unpaid parking. Both products utilize license plate recognition (ANPR) cameras that scan vehicles at entry and exit points to automatically calculate parking duration, detect violations, and filter unauthorized parkers. The company also provides full-service operational support, acting as a single-source partner for site concept, installation, and ongoing parking facility management.

Products and services

• Carpay Carpay is Parkdepot's paid parking product providing a barrier-free and ticketless parking experience. Customers enter their license plate at payment terminals, pay for their parking time using modern payment methods, and exit without barriers. It eliminates ticket loss and barrier failures while minimizing maintenance costs. Targeted at businesses operating paid parking facilities including supermarkets, shopping centers, hotels, and entertainment venues.
• Supervision Supervision is Parkdepot's unpaid parking monitoring solution using license plate scanners that capture vehicle entry and exit 24/7. It automatically calculates parking duration without parking discs, identifies non-customers and unauthorized parkers, and ensures parking spaces remain available for legitimate customers. Targeted at businesses with private parking lots that need to enforce customer-only parking (e.g., supermarkets, real estate, healthcare clinics).
• Full-Service Partner (Parking Operations) Parkdepot's comprehensive parking management service covering site concept development, system installation and commissioning, smooth introduction, and ongoing operational support including acting as parking facility operator. Provides a single-source end-to-end partnership from initial planning through daily parking operations. Targeted at businesses that want hands-off parking management.
