Core offering

Tattile designs, manufactures, and sells AI-powered automatic number plate recognition (ANPR/ALPR) cameras, vehicle classification sensors, and the proprietary Stark software platform for intelligent transportation systems. The company delivers integrated hardware-software solutions for tolling, traffic enforcement, smart city, and railway applications, with all processing performed on-board the camera (edge computing). Solutions are sold to government agencies, toll operators, municipalities, and law enforcement across 75+ countries.

Product overview

Tattile is a hi-performance mobility solutions company offering a comprehensive intelligent transportation systems (ITS) portfolio combining hardware cameras, sensors, and software platforms. The product architecture centers on the Stark software platform which integrates AI-powered applications across the hardware portfolio. Camera products include the Smart+ family (Tolling+, Speed, Traffic Light variants), Vega series (11, 53), Basic MK2, and Mobile+ for various ANPR/ALPR applications. Following the 2024 acquisition of Comark, the sensor portfolio expanded to include Comark+ Laser, Radar, RAM111, and Bike Counter for vehicle detection and classification. Software offerings include Stark OCR (embedded and cloud variants), Stark Controller for device management, Stark Fusion for data analytics, Stark BCCM for brand/color/model recognition, and Tasc for traffic analysis. The modular architecture enables customizable solutions for tolling (free-flow, stop&go), enforcement (speed, red light, parking, bus lanes), ITS (vehicle monitoring, patrolling, access control), smart city (traffic analytics, bike counting), and railway applications (PIS, PAS, CCTV, LAN).

• TagMaster: Swedish specialist in ANPR and RFID solutions for parking, access control, and traffic management. Direct competitor in radar-based and camera-based vehicle identification markets.

Broad incumbents

• Siemens Mobility: Division of Siemens offering tolling, traffic management, and enforcement solutions as part of a much broader portfolio (rail signaling, road infrastructure, EVs). Competes with Tattile in large turnkey ITS tenders but is not specialized in ANPR.
• Conduent Transportation: Major operator of tolling and road-user charging systems globally, often competing with Tattile's camera hardware partners for end-to-end tolling contracts. Broader ITS services portfolio, partially overlapping with Tattile's tolling application area.
• Axis Communications: Network camera giant with significant presence in ITS/traffic monitoring through partner-integrated ANPR software. Competes with Tattile's camera hardware at the edge of the stack, especially in projects requiring open-platform cameras.

Emerging players

• Quercus Technologies: Spanish ANPR and parking management specialist (now part of a Nordic group) competing with Tattile's Vega and Basic MK2 in parking and access control. Smaller scale but similar product focus and customer segments.
