Parkit Explains

How Parkit Works – Simple, Digital and Human

Parkit is a digital system for parking permits, payments, surveillance, and EV charging — all in one platform. It replaces manual lists, paper notes, and endless patrols with automated processes that simply work. But the most important thing about Parkit isn’t the technology. It’s the feeling: parking that’s finally smooth, fair, and stress-free.

The Core Idea: Digital Permit + Licence Plate

Parkit is built on one simple principle: the vehicle is the permit.

Instead of stickers, tags, or paper slips, every parking session is connected directly to the licence plate.

When a vehicle enters, the system (using ANPR cameras) checks:

  • Does this car have a valid permit?
  • Does it need to pay?
  • Is there an active guest, charging, or contract permission?

If everything checks out → the system approves automatically.
If not → the car is flagged digitally, and the issue is handled without confrontation.

Result: less admin, fewer misunderstandings, and a fairer experience for everyone.

How Parkit Works – Step by Step

1. Registration
Property owners, housing associations, or companies create user accounts in the Parkit Admin portal.
Residents, employees, or tenants register their vehicles digitally.

2. Permits & Roles
Permits are automatically assigned based on role, area, or schedule — for:

  • Residents
  • Guests
  • Staff
  • Company vehicles

3. Entry
When the car enters, ANPR cameras read the licence plate.
The system immediately knows if the vehicle is authorised — and can open the gate or log the passage.

4. Monitoring & Control
If the vehicle lacks a valid permit, it’s flagged in the system.
Digital parking attendants can view it in real time and act if needed.

5. Payment & Reporting
Payments happen automatically via app or invoice.
Property owners get access to real-time dashboards showing usage, occupancy, and revenue.

Parkit + EV Charging = Smarter Operations

Parkit integrates seamlessly with charging infrastructure.
That means the same system can:

  • Start and stop charging automatically
  • Bill the correct user
  • Manage power distribution (load balancing)
  • Show energy statistics and consumption data

A charging point without a system is just a socket.
A charging point with Parkit is an intelligent service.

The Technology Behind Parkit – Without the Headache

Parkit consists of four connected components that work together seamlessly:

Parkit isn’t just a tool — it’s a framework for future property management.

Common Use Cases

Parkit is used today by:

  • Property owners – for digital control and easier operations
  • Housing associations (BRFs) – for fair permit management among residents
  • Companies – for employee and visitor parking
  • Hospitals and municipalities – to manage large-scale parking flows
  • Airports – where ANPR and payment systems work fully automatically

Same logic, different needs — Parkit adapts to the site.

Security & Data Protection

Parkit complies with all GDPR and Swedish camera surveillance regulations.

  • Only licence plate numbers and timestamps are stored
  • All data is encrypted
  • Storage times are short (24–72 hours)
  • Every access is logged and traceable

Transparency isn’t a feature — it’s a principle.

The Future with Parkit

Parkit is constantly evolving, with development focused on:

  • AI-based occupancy forecasting
  • Dynamic pricing automation
  • Integration with access systems and property management tools
  • Open APIs for seamless third-party connections

Our vision: parking shouldn’t take up space in your mind — only in your property.

The Parkit Philosophy

Parking is a small part of daily life — but a big part of how a property flows.
We build technology that saves time, reduces conflict, and creates security.

Parkit isn’t a system you have to think about — it’s a system you can rely on.
Because when Parkit works, people can too.
