Built for how communities actually park
Stop visitor stall abuse
Track how long guest vehicles stay and how often they return, so residents who park in visitor spots every night are flagged automatically.
Unlimited custom time limits
Every zone gets its own rules — 24-hour guest limits, overnight bans, fire lanes, clubhouse hours. Change them any time without calling anyone.
Resident and permit lists
Registered resident and permitted vehicles are recognized instantly and left alone, with expiration dates and an audit trail on every change.
Evidence that ends arguments
Each scan stores a photo, time and GPS position, so neighbor disputes over who parked where are settled with facts, not opinions.
Violation resolution and fines
Issue warnings or fines under your CC&Rs, review disputes with the full evidence trail, and track outcomes — turning enforcement into recovered revenue for the association.
Phones, vehicle or fixed cameras
Start with the phones your team already carries, then add vehicle-mounted or fixed cameras at gates and garages if your community wants them.
Pricing
Subscriptions from $75/month, priced to the number of sites, scans and integrations you need. Customization starts at $0, and any custom work is quoted up front, with no surprises.

Common questions
Is ALPR legal for HOAs and residential communities?
Yes. Reading license plates visible on private community property is lawful. PlateSentry supports the required written ALPR usage and privacy policy, automatic record deletion, and role-based access so only authorized staff see plate data.
Can different parts of our community have different time limits?
Yes. Time restrictions are unlimited and fully customizable. Draw any number of zones on a satellite map — visitor stalls, fire lanes, clubhouse, guest overflow — and give each its own limit, schedule, or no-parking rule.
Do we need to buy cameras or a patrol vehicle?
No. Enforcement runs on the phones your staff or security already carry. Communities that want more coverage can add vehicle-mounted or fixed cameras, and PlateSentry works with both.
How are violations and disputes handled?
Every violation carries photos, a timestamp, GPS location and required written observations. Residents can dispute, and the board or manager reviews the full evidence trail before upholding or dismissing.
