Mission & philosophy

Provably private. Shared on your terms. Built for every city.

We are building a car app that can prove it keeps nothing about where you are — and that lets you choose, each time, what to share so parking, car care and city services get better for everyone around you.

01 · philosophy

Nobody has built this before. We think it's the only way.

Our philosophy: sharing information between people and services is how everyone gets better service and a better place to live — as long as nothing private about you is kept. So we keep no identity and no location trail, we intend to open the code so anyone can verify it, and we let you share what helps the next person.

01

Nothing private to leak.

No location trail, no identity of the person who scans, no messages between strangers. Your own plate stays on your account, used only to find your tickets — never shown to anyone.

02

Open to verify.

Our goal is a verifiable system: public code, signed releases, and a way to check that the app on your phone is the build we published. Don't trust — check.

03

Sharing is yours to choose.

A spot you freed, a wrong sign, your car's error code, your verdict on a mechanic: shared without your name, each one makes the next driver's decision better. Your gift to the block, never a file on you.

04

Free to the world.

The core stays free and open to every city. Premium pays for Reachy. Whatever we keep, we keep to serve you better — never anything private.

02 · what sharing fixes

Keep nothing private. Share what helps.

The two halves of the idea. On the left, what Reachy refuses to keep about you. On the right, what drivers choose to share — anonymously — and who it helps.

We never keep

  • Where you drove or parked
  • Who scanned your badge
  • Your plate, shown to anyone
  • Free-text messages between strangers
  • Anything that says who you are

You may choose to share

  • A spot you just left→ a neighbour parks in a minute instead of twenty. Parking fixed, block by block.
  • A sign that's wrong on the map→ the map improves for everyone who parks there.
  • Your car's error code, and how the repair went→ the next driver goes straight to the mechanic who has fixed exactly that, ten times. And if the eleventh time goes wrong, we can tell something odd happened — because ten people were happy before.
  • What's happening on your block→ one source of truth for drivers and for the city.
  • A parking lot that has room→ our intelligence detects free spots, on the street and in public and private lots that join Reachy — visible to everyone, less circling, less traffic.

03 · for cities

A better-organized city. Same infrastructure, shared properly.

Cities have the infrastructure. What they don't have is a proper, efficient way to share what it knows — rules, tickets, plans, free parking. We build the products that make that possible, for every single city, and we are ready to share them.

tickets

Pay and get told.

A ticket shows up in the app the day it's issued, with a reminder before the late fee and a way to pay — no letters that arrive too late.

services

Ask the city from the curb.

Request a service, report a problem, get an answer — through the same app, with the same privacy rules.

source of truth

Know before the work starts.

Planned construction, closures and street fairs reach the drivers on that block before the signs go up — and residents can tell the city what they see.

parking

Make every spot visible.

Circling for parking is traffic. Our intelligence detects free spots on the street; cities and private lots can add theirs, so every spot becomes findable.

street rules

A map of every sign, kept true.

Our intelligence turns a city's sign records into a map residents trust — and shows the city where its own records are wrong, block by block.

the day

Today on the block.

Holidays, suspended street cleaning, closures and street fairs — on top of the signs, in every driver's pocket the morning it matters.

For governments

The tools we built to map a city, offered to cities.

We will share our mapping tools, and what we learned building them, with any government that wants a digital city its people actually use.

04 · where we go

New York first. Then the world.

We start where parking is hardest. Every city after that gets the same app, the same privacy and the same free core.

05 · pass it on

The app is the tool. You're the network.

Great tools can't do magic on their own. Every time you park and leave with Reachy, a neighbour finds a spot — and every neighbour who joins does the same for you.

You

Fewer tickets.

A reminder before the sweeper, an alert before the late fee.

Your block

Shared spots.

Neighbours see the spots you leave, and you see theirs.

Your city

Calmer streets.

Less circling, less honking, more time. Built by all of us.

Open to every idea

Tell us what to build next.

Feature requests, fixes, complaints, thank-yous — we read every message and reply.
