Dr. Yaroslav Kharkov leads Spotlink's technical and systems direction, helping transform complex parking rules, curb context, and driver signals into structured intelligence for everyday parking decisions.

Built from the street up

Spotlink is shaped by NYC driver conversations, parking-ticket pain points, business partnerships, and field activations.

AI for practical decisions

The platform focuses on turning confusing curb rules into clear driver guidance before a parking mistake happens.

Designed for NYC complexity

Hydrants, street cleaning, no standing, no parking, no stopping, meters, and enforcement windows all require more than a generic map.

Focus

Parking intelligence before the expensive mistake.

Spotlink is built around the pressure of active parking decisions: signs, timing, hydrants, street cleaning, enforcement windows, and the moment a driver is about to walk away.

Urban mobility context

A parking app for NYC drivers has to understand the full urban mobility ecosystem.

Spotlink is more than a parking utility. It connects driver questions, CurbAI sign interpretation, TicketGuard timing, local business discovery, changing restrictions, temporary updates, and community-powered departure signals into a practical information layer for everyday mobility.

Parking confusion affects time, money, work, family stability, neighborhood activity, and access to local businesses. A single avoidable ticket can hurt households already under pressure, especially families with limited resources. Spotlink does not replace posted signs or official rules; it helps drivers interpret rules faster, respond to updates sooner, understand risk, reduce stress, and move through the city with more confidence as both an information layer and an intelligent layer for urban mobility.
