Why should measuring whether a single space is occupied require a camera or cutting into pavement? Everything since has been the work of answering that, building the thing that answers it, and putting it outside where it has to hold up.
The starting question was narrow: why should measuring a single parking space require a camera pointed at the street or a saw cut in the pavement? The first prototype was an attempt to answer that with a magnetometer and a radio.
The device became a sealed unit at 4.72 by 2.2 by 1.30 inches, in UV-stabilized polycarbonate with tamper-resistant screws. The head separates from a bonded backplate, so a unit can be swapped without redoing the mount.
Sensors went onto regular, pickup and ADA spaces at a field site in Austin, Texas, with a receiver covering the group. That deployment has been running since September 2026.
Every state change is stored with its own timestamp. Live status, occupancy rate, dwell, turnover, sensor health and period reporting all read off that record, and so does the accuracy check-in system used to validate it.
Two founders, both full time, both on the deployment.
Founder & Chief Executive Officer
Josh hated parking so much he decided it’s what he should pursue. While studying economics at UT Austin, he built Bizzi’s first prototype and now serves as CEO.
Before Bizzi, Josh built and sold a software platform and played collegiate football.
