Google Maps and Waze help you reach the destination. Spotlink can continue the parking search by helping you find a driver-reported Departure, navigate toward it turn by turn, and understand the curb when you arrive. Spotlink is not positioned as a replacement for general destination navigation.
Different Jobs in the Same Trip
Waze and Google Maps center destination directions, routes, traffic, and ETAs. Spotlink centers the parking decision around that destination: driver-reported Departures, guidance to a selected report, CurbAI rule context, TicketGuard timing, saved-car tools, private sharing, and parking-focused Voice assistance.
The products can be used together. A general GPS service can get you near the destination; Spotlink can help with the parking search and curb decision.
What Happens After You Select a Departure
Spotlink can provide turn-by-turn guidance toward the report. When you arrive, confirm that the space is still open and use CurbAI to check current parking restrictions. Guidance does not reserve a public space or establish that parking is legal.
