"Every parent knows the struggle of finding a decent place to stop on a long drive," said Jennie Meza, Co-founder of SmartStops. "We built this app because families deserve better than hoping the next exit has something for kids."

The app features a database of over 197,000 parks across the United States, with verified amenity information including playgrounds, restrooms, and parking. Users enter their route and SmartStops identifies optimal stopping points where family-friendly activities, food, gas, and coffee are all within reach.

Unlike most travel apps, SmartStops doesn't require a subscription—just one-time purchases starting at $5.99.
