Episode notes

While Goldman Sachs projects autonomous vehicles and robotaxis to grow at 90% CAGR, fleet experts generally agree the state of the art robot will be soon defeated by a metal kiosk on the curbside.

The taxi cannot feed a coin slot and probably not download many consumer software that vary city to cuty- creating a very real likelihood of empty cars just circling around causing even more congestion while Municipalities lose money.

My guest today is solving that problem - in the first week of April 2026, Meter Feeder delivered the first ever machine to machine, completely automated parking payment in the United States.

I welcome Jim Gibbs, who is building the parking payments for the Future of Mobility
