After experiencing the frustration of poor parking experiences, Dan Hubert launched AppyWay in 2013. His vision was to build a platform that would standardise, and centralise a digital version of the kerb. AppyWay’s platform aims to enable cities and fleets to optimise their operations and transition to net zero by offering UK-wide kerbside maps, occupancy data, and payment solutions. AppyWay now claims to be the most advanced kerbside platform, and works with global brands to help cities to decarbonise.
