Spotter Spotter creates a sharing economy out of parking in Providence. Think of us as Airbnb for driveways. Parking as we know it is broken and we're here to help.

Spotter taps into the supply of private parking to help drivers park better, cities scale smarter, and spot owners generate passive income through a new sharing economy. By renting out driveways and other idle parking spaces through our mobile app, drivers can park quickly, cheaply, and stress-free. Drivers park instantly with the click of a button for the low rate of $1/hour, while spot owners ha

ve full control over each spotโ€™s availability and need only cash the monthly check. Spotter recently went live on the app store with over 100 parking spaces currently available in Providence, Rhode Island. We are collaborating with the city and over twelve local businesses to revitalize commercial areas and reduce the need for the construction of new parking garages, which detract from the charm of the city. Here at Spotter, we're taking the driver's seat on parking in Providence.

In the immortal words of Joe Strummer,...THIS IS A PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT! This week marks our 12 year anniversary here on Thayer St. but we are sad to announce that it will be our last. Our last day of slinging slices on Thayer will be April 15, so lets have a party and celebrate! We will keep you posted on what will happen next but mostly wanted to thank all of our supporters out there. Some didn't think we'd make it 12 days, never mind 12 years so here's to everyone who's ever had a slice of the cranberry picnic and told there friends how great is it, to all the mf-BBQ CHICKEN lovers, to the boss Bruce Springsteen who just gets the regular cheese slice,.or to all the sports teams that mowed stacks of pizza after a match or game, late night strollers, and for the black sheep who said," f-that, I'll never eat over there!' you know who you are and we love you for that. Another special thanks to all past and present employees who but there back into the movement. Your contributions mattered and are appreciated. We loved our little pizza shop and Thayer st. community with all our hearts but just can't fight the corporate tide of big business. We've been flanked by empty stores, endless construction, and now parking meters with a terminator for an enforcer. Independent businesses are important and need your support. In the mean time, we will continue to get our west side location open. We are shooting for May. THANK YOU,... AND NO, YOU CAN'T CRUSH THE DREAM. The pie will remain the same and resurrect soon.
