SmartPickup is the comprehensive traffic and compliance management system that eliminates school zone congestion, verifies every pickup, and maintains a complete audit trail — all from one platform.
Every aspect of school zone traffic management — from staggered scheduling and vehicle tracking to identity verification and compliance reporting — in one platform.
Stagger vehicle arrival times based on family distance (in miles), grade, and section to distribute traffic over a 30-45 minute window instead of one rush.
Learn moreMonitor all inbound vehicles in real time. Staff see who's approaching, students track their ride, and the system logs every journey for compliance records.
Learn moreEnforce pickup compliance at the gate. Every authorized person has a unique QR code and registered photo — no valid code means no child release.
Learn moreReduce total vehicle count by 25%. Families near each other share rides on a per-date basis — fewer cars, less congestion, same compliance standards.
Learn moreMaintain a verified registry of every authorized pickup person. Parents manage who can collect their children — changes update system-wide in real time.
Learn moreControl traffic flow with named lanes and capacity limits. Direct vehicles through designated routes to prevent bottlenecks and keep school zones moving.
Learn moreFrom the first notification to the last verified pickup — every vehicle tracked, every identity confirmed, every event logged.
Schools typically go live within one week. No hardware, no construction, no traffic engineers — just install and manage.
Upload a CSV with family names, guardian contacts, and student details. All accounts created automatically — your compliance registry is ready in minutes.
Once guardians set their address, SmartPickup calculates distance in miles and assigns staggered arrival windows to distribute traffic evenly.
Parents download the app, set their address, upload photos, and register authorized pickup persons — building the compliance foundation.
Traffic management begins. Vehicles arrive in staggered windows, staff verify identities at the gate, and every event is logged for full compliance.
