What we do Visit the app site

City records in, driver alerts out

Daily monitoring on NYC Open Data

We run a daily monitoring service on top of NYC Open Data, the public records the City of New York publishes for parking tickets and their status.

Boot and tow risk warnings

When a ticket is issued, a penalty date approaches, or an unpaid balance nears the city boot threshold, we warn the driver before it gets expensive.

Alerts drivers can act on

Notifications go out by push notification and email, with the ticket details the driver needs to pay or dispute with the city in time.

How the service runs

One loop, run every day for every registered vehicle. It is the whole operation, and it is deliberately simple: public records in, timely warnings out.

A plate is registered

A driver adds a vehicle in the app by scanning its plate or typing the number. The first scan is free and does not need an account.

Records are checked daily

We check NYC Open Data, the city's public parking ticket records, for every registered plate, every day.

Changes become alerts

A new ticket, a penalty date approaching, a judgment entered, a balance nearing the boot line: each one becomes a push notification, an email, or both.

The driver acts in time

The alert carries the ticket details the driver needs to pay or dispute with the city while doing so is still cheap.

One app. Watched plates. No surprises

A Brooklyn brownstone block at night, cars parked along both curbs under streetlights

New York City at night, where CheckTow drivers park. The company runs a daily monitoring service on the public records behind scenes like this one.

CheckTow is a mobile app for iPhone and Android, currently in preparation for launch. Drivers add a vehicle by scanning its plate or typing the plate number, and the service watches that plate from there. Product details, features, and launch information live on the CheckTow app site.
