About
WITP is built by Daniele Scruzzi, an 18-year-old independent iOS developer from Verbania, on Lake Maggiore — under the studio name By D.S.
The project started from a simple annoyance: parking apps that show a generic pin and call it a day. WITP took the opposite bet — if a lot is triangular in the real world, it should be triangular on the map, and if the app says "72% chance of a spot", there should be an actual formula behind that number, one you can inspect.
That bet cost a full rewrite: an early satellite-imagery prototype was scrapped in spring 2026 when it couldn't meet that standard, and rebuilt on real OpenStreetMap and Apple Maps geometry plus a deterministic probability model — with Claude as a reasoning layer on the paid tiers. The whole pipeline is described, and partly runnable, on the home page.
An iOS app that maps real parking stalls near you and estimates, honestly, the chance of finding one free.
Not a crowdsourcing app, not a magic sensor network, not a promise of a guaranteed spot. Estimates are estimates — the app says so.
TestFlight beta in summer 2026, starting from the VCO area and Lake Maggiore, then wider Italian coverage.
