ParkByPlate
Plate-based parking management app that turns spaces into revenue from week one.
Client Overview
ParkByPlate is a parking management app for residential buildings and garages — letting operators charge for parking by license plate and manage spaces from a mobile-first interface. We built the full backend with Node.js + MongoDB, integrated Stripe, Twilio, and SendGrid, and shipped end-to-end on AWS EC2 with CI/CD and SSL.
