You know what’s happening in your lots. The hard part is deciding what to do about it.
Which permits to move, which lot to close for construction, which rate to change, without creating three new problems. Stratum works on top of the systems you already run, weighs the move against everything it touches (occupancy, revenue, access, and the budget you’re on the hook for) and brings your team the recommendations worth weighing, with the reasoning behind each. You make the call.

Where information becomes a decision.
Reporting shows you what happened.
Forecasting shows you what’s likely next.
Together, that’s the picture. Stratum weighs it against everything your operation is up against and brings back the move worth making, one you can take to the table and defend. You make the call.
A recommendation is only as good as what it’s weighed against.
What makes a move defensible is what it’s measured against, not just occupancy and revenue, but your real constraints: the permit rules, the leases, the revenue you’re counting on to cover the garages, and the targets you’re held to. That grounding is the difference between an option and one your team can stand behind.
Peer urban campuses sell close to 1.8 permits for every space, on a ratio most never re-check against the class schedule.

What your team actually sees.
For the decision on the table, Stratum brings back moves (including ones you hadn’t lined up) ranked by impact and effort, each with the reasoning behind it. So the call is easy to make, and easy to explain.
Ranked by impact and effort. The highest-leverage move sits on top.
Explained, not just asserted. Every recommendation shows the numbers behind it.
Yours to act on. Accept it, adjust it, or override it entirely. Stratum recommends; it never acts on its own.

One move is never just one move.
You rarely get to change one thing at a time. Move permits for an event and the commuter lots feel it; close a deck for construction and the overflow has to land somewhere, and the fix in one place becomes a problem in three others. Working that out by hand, under pressure, is the hard part of the job.

– Overlapping permit, resident & visitor demand

Test the move before you make it.
Model a rate change, a lot closure, or a move-in plan and see the projected effect on occupancy, overflow, and revenue, before it reaches your team or your customers.
Compare approaches side by side. See how each one plays out.
Watch the numbers move before you commit to anything.

It reads the systems you already run.
PARCS, permits, LPR, financial systems, event calendars: Stratum pulls from the sources you already have and works alongside them. There’s nothing to replace.
- Works with your existing systems. PARCS, permits, LPR, financial systems, event calendars, GIS, and other parking and mobility data sources.
- Vendor-neutral. Designed to support mixed technology environments without favoring a particular platform.
- No rip-and-replace. Keep the systems you trust while adding a decision-intelligence layer that turns existing data into decisions.

Built for organizations that move people.
The same layer, tuned to the pressures each kind of operation actually runs under.
Universities
On campus, a parking call is really a policy call, tangled up in permit ratios, garage-bond coverage, and who’s entitled to what.
Health systems
Staff, inpatients, outpatients, and the ED all need to park now, four demand clocks balanced against one supply every hour.
Airports
Demand shifting across curb, economy, and valet as rideshare pulls share, with the parking revenue pledged against the terminal’s bonds.
Mixed-use
Parking written into leases that run with the land, where easing one tenant’s crunch can breach another’s guarantee.
Municipalities
Curb, meter, and structure revenue that funds services well beyond parking, inside public procurement and accountability.
Take the whole picture, or just the layer you need.
Start where you are
Begin with the decisions that cost you the most today, using the data you already have. No hardware, no year-long rollout.
Add what you’re missing
Reporting, forecasting, or recommendations: bring on the capability you don’t have yet, when you’re ready for it. Keep the tools that already earn their keep.
It compounds
Every part is grounded in the same reality, so the pieces work better together than apart, and the guidance sharpens as you connect more.
The questions teams ask first.
Stratum is a decision-intelligence platform for parking and mobility organizations. It works with the systems and data you already have to help evaluate current conditions, proposed changes, and emerging challenges. Every evaluation combines analysis, projected impacts, tradeoffs, and recommended actions so your team can make more informed decisions with confidence.
Many AI parking platforms focus on analyzing or improving a specific function, such as occupancy, pricing, enforcement, or compliance. Stratum takes a broader approach. It helps organizations evaluate how decisions affect the parking environment as a whole, bringing together existing data, organizational priorities, projected impacts, and tradeoffs to support better decision-making across the organization.
Dashboards help you understand what happened. Stratum helps you evaluate what it means and what comes next. Instead of presenting information for your team to interpret, Stratum evaluates the situation using your existing data and organizational priorities, returning projected impacts, tradeoffs, supporting analysis, and recommended actions that help guide decisions.
No. Stratum is designed to work alongside the parking and mobility systems your organization already relies on. Whether your environment includes multiple vendors, disconnected systems, or varying levels of data maturity, Stratum acts as a vendor-neutral decision-intelligence layer without requiring a rip-and-replace implementation.
Stratum is built for parking and mobility organizations responsible for making complex management decisions across universities, health systems, municipalities, airports, and mixed-use developments. It’s designed for teams that need to balance competing priorities, evaluate tradeoffs, and make confident, data-informed decisions using the systems they already have.
No. Stratum is designed to support the decisions parking organizations make every day as well as larger strategic initiatives. Whether you’re evaluating current conditions, responding to an emerging issue, preparing for a special event, or considering a policy change, Stratum uses the same decision framework to help your team understand projected impacts and tradeoffs before taking action.
Every recommendation is generated as part of a broader evaluation. Stratum considers the information available from your existing systems together with the goals your organization has defined, then compares potential approaches based on projected impacts and tradeoffs. Every recommendation is supported by the analysis behind it, so your team can understand not only what is being suggested, but why.
No. Think of Stratum as an advisor that knows your operation: it weighs the options, brings back the recommendations worth considering, and shows the reasoning behind each. The decision, and the authority for it, stays with you. It recommends; it never acts on its own.
