Pumba, an app developed by Roi Yotvat and Ofek Zucker, aims to solve the parking problem in Tel Aviv. The app shows users available parking spots in their vicinity, and provides real-time updates on their status. The information is collected through parking sensors installed on the balconies or windows of neighborhood residents. Currently, the service is active in the old north and center of Tel Aviv, with plans to expand to other areas in the city. The service is currently free for neighborhood drivers, but in the future, it will be enabled by purchasing a monthly subscription.

The startup that will find you parking in Tel Aviv
Two start-ups, Pomba and Pink Park, are offering solutions to the parking problem in Tel Aviv. Pomba, founded by two students at Reichman University, has developed an app that updates users in real-time about available parking spaces across the city. Pink Park offers a different solution, acting as an Airbnb for parking spaces, allowing them to be rented on an hourly or monthly basis. Despite the increase in parking spaces in Tel Aviv in recent years, the number of street parking spaces has actually decreased. Over the past four years, 3,100 street parking spaces have been eliminated, leaving approximately 74,000, while the number of vehicles with parking permits in the city has almost doubled to around 180,000.
