Automatic license plate readers (ALPRs) face growing scrutiny over privacy concerns, with Missouri implementing usage guardrails. Local governments need to verify deployments comply with retention limits and access rules.
Offer a SaaS that ingests ALPR logs and audits them against configurable policy templates. Flag violations like excessive data retention or unauthorized queries.
Sell to city IT departments and police oversight boards under compliance budgets. The recent regulatory action proves willingness to pay.
MVP could be a simple rule engine that processes sample log exports and generates PDF reports.
Risk: Vendor lock-in if ALPR companies restrict log access or build competing features.
