How It Works

Three steps to your next adventure

Tell us where you want to go. We handle the impossible part — actually getting you a permit.

1

Tell us your dream trip

Pick your parks, dates, and group size — or just describe what you want in plain English. "Something like Yosemite in July for 4 people."

2

We monitor everything

Our AI watches lottery deadlines, cancellations, and new openings across every major permit system. 24/7, every few seconds.

3

Get notified instantly

The moment something opens up, you get a text or email with a direct link. We also suggest smart alternatives you hadn't considered.

Features

What makes PermitPing different

Every other service just monitors campsite cancellations. We're building something smarter.

🏠

Lottery Permit Tracking

The Wave, Half Dome, Mount Whitney, Grand Canyon backcountry — we track lottery deadlines, results, and post-lottery cancellations that nobody else monitors.

🤖

AI-Powered Alternatives

Can't get into Yosemite? We'll suggest parks with similar terrain, fewer crowds, and actual availability — tailored to what you care about most.

👥

Group Coordination

Planning with friends? Share a trip, monitor adjacent campsites, and coordinate bookings so your whole crew camps together.

Instant Alerts

Text and email notifications the moment a permit or campsite opens up. You'll know before the crowds — and have a direct link to book.

FAQ

Common questions

How is PermitPing different from Campnab or CampScanner?
Those services only monitor campsite cancellations on Recreation.gov. PermitPing goes further — we track lottery-based permits (The Wave, Half Dome, etc.), provide AI-powered trip alternatives, and offer group coordination. Think of us as a smart trip planner, not just an alert tool.
What does "pay per use" mean exactly?
You only pay when we successfully find an opening that matches your criteria. Set up monitoring for free — if we find something and alert you, that's when you're charged. No monthly subscriptions, no hidden fees.
Which parks and permits do you cover?
At launch, we'll cover all Recreation.gov campgrounds and permits, plus lottery-based permits including The Wave, Half Dome cables, Mount Whitney, Grand Canyon backcountry, and Enchantments. We're rapidly adding state park systems and Canadian parks.
How fast are the alerts?
Our system scans every few seconds and sends alerts within moments of a cancellation or opening. You'll get a text message and email with a direct link to complete your booking on the official site.
Does PermitPing book the permit for me?
We send you a direct link to the official booking page the moment a spot opens up. You complete the booking yourself on Recreation.gov or the relevant park system — we make sure you're first in line.
