How the Goose Works

Tell It Your Plate

Enter any license plate. The goose digs through 141M+ NYC records instantly. No account needed.

The Goose Watches

Add your email and the goose checks NYC records daily. Geese don't forget. Neither do we.

It Honks When It Finds Something

New ticket? The goose honks — you get an email. Pay before it doubles.

The goose works for everyone

Geese are relentless. So is our monitoring.

Your daily driver

Catch tickets before they double. Get alerts the same day.

Buying a used car?

Check if a vehicle has outstanding tickets before you buy it.

Street parked while traveling

Monitor your car while you're away. No surprises when you land.

Check any plate

Curious about that car always parked in your spot? Look it up.

Most New Yorkers don't know they have a ticket until it's doubled

Missed tickets become $130 problems. Then your car gets booted. The goose catches them early — before any of that happens.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this really free?

Yes — 100% free for personal use. No credit card, no hidden fees, no trial period. We plan to offer premium features for businesses in the future, but plate checks and personal monitoring are free forever.

Where does the data come from?

Directly from NYC Open Data, the city's official public data portal. It's the same data NYC uses internally — over 141 million records and counting.

How often does the goose check?

The goose scans NYC records daily. When a new ticket appears on your plate, you'll get a honk (email alert) — usually within 24 hours of it hitting the system.

Is this an official city service?

Nope — just a very determined goose with access to public data. For official city services, visit NYC.gov. The goose just makes it easier to stay on top of your tickets.

Can I check plates from other states?

Yes! You can check any plate that's received a parking ticket in NYC, regardless of which state it's registered in. Out-of-state plates get ticketed in NYC all the time.

What happens if I have unpaid tickets?

We'll show you exactly what you owe and link you directly to NYC.gov to pay. Unpaid tickets can double in fines after 90 days, and can eventually lead to booting or towing.

For Business

Got a flock of vehicles?

The goose can watch dozens or hundreds of plates at once. Fleet dashboard, real-time alerts, violation trends — coming soon.
