Message any car by its plate.

Lights left on, a window open, a thank-you for the space. Plated gets a short note to the driver, who can read it and choose whether to reply.

Made for iPhone, with a web app for desktop and Android. You don’t need a car to send a message.

Today 5:48 PM

Your lights are on, in the lot on Market Street.

Thanks for the heads-up! My battery would’ve been dead by the time I got back.

An example conversation.

How it works

Start with the plate. The rest is one short message.

Find the plate
Type it, or point your iPhone’s camera at it. Pick the state or province, then check every character.
Send one message
Your first message is a request. The owner reads it and chooses to accept or decline. Nothing more is sent until they accept.
No one there yet? It waits.
If nobody has claimed the plate, we keep your message for up to 90 days and deliver it to whoever claims it.
Claim your own plate
Optional. Add a plate you drive so people can reach you through it. Replies stay with the people in the conversation.

Plated is for small, kind notes. A few things keep it that way.
