A clear driveway by 7 a.m., shown by your own camera

Snow falls overnight, and you find out at 6:30 whether the plow came.

A driveway cleared before 7 a.m., shown by the same cameraA house with a camera on its wall watching the driveway. Two night snapshots, twenty minutes apart, show snow deeper than five centimeters. Someone shovels the drive and salts the front steps, and the snow is gone. An after-snapshot from the same camera at 6:42 shows clear pavement. Three checks pass, a receipt prints saying the drive was cleared at 6:42, and it is stamped verified.SNOW ORDER · DRIVEWAYDRAWN ZONE ONLY02:1002:3006:42 AFTER≥ 5 CMDEADLINE 07:00DRIVE CLEARSTEPS SALTEDBEFORE 7:00RECEIPTCLEARED 06:42SAME CAMERASTEPS PHOTOVERIFIED
Example · fictional home
Example: it snowed overnight and you want the driveway clear by 7:00 am. Your driveway camera sees snow past your depth on two snapshots, 20 minutes apart, and the job posts under the standing order you set. Your plow operator gets first call (a neighbor with a shovel or a snow-clearing robot could take it too), the same camera confirms the drive is clear by 6:42 am, and they're paid in US dollars with a Proof of Physical Work (PoPW) on record.

How it works with what you already run.

A plow operator photographs a freshly cleared driveway and salted front steps at sunrise, with snowbanks on both sides
  1. 01

    Set the order once

    Pick a snow depth, a deadline and a top price for the season. Your own plow operator gets first call, and vetted local pros are the backup.

  2. 02

    Watch the driveway

    When snow is forecast, Teleport checks snapshots of the zone you drew on your driveway camera. Two snapshots, 20 minutes apart, must both show snow past your depth.

  3. 03

    Plow, shovel, salt

    The operator plows the driveway, shovels the walk and steps, salts the steps and photographs them in the app.

  4. 04

    Check it

    A fresh snapshot from the same camera is compared with the snowy one. A versioned policy decides, and anything unclear goes to a person.

  5. 05

    Paid, with a receipt

    Your card is charged, the operator is paid in US dollars, and you keep a timestamped receipt that the walk was clear before 7 a.m.

§ 02

Same camera, before and after.

Two snapshots arm the job, and an after-snapshot from the same camera closes it. Each step lands on the timeline as it's proven.

§ 03

Wake up to a clear driveway, with the time on record.

  • Your own plow operator first, vetted local pros as the backup
  • A snapshot from the same camera, before and after
  • A timestamp showing the walk was clear before your deadline
  • A season of receipts in one place, storm by storm
  • Pay only for storms that were actually cleared
Proves
The driveway, walk and steps were clear, and the steps salted, when the after-snapshot and the operator's photo were taken.
What we won't do
  • Teleport only checks the zones you draw on your own camera, and only as snapshots. No live viewing.
  • People are never what we look for. Faces are covered before any model sees a frame.
  • A receipt shows when the walk was cleared. Whether it settles an HOA rule or a claim is up to them.
  • In early access: we run it with design partners.
§ 04

A receipt for every storm.

One proof per storm: the snapshots that armed it, your operator's work, the same camera's after-snapshot and the time the walk was clear.

Your deadline was 7:00. The receipt shows 6:42, not just an invoice.

Questions homeowners ask

Do I need a new camera?

No. Teleport uses the outdoor or doorbell camera you already have, and only the zone you draw on your driveway.

What if it snows less than my depth?

Nothing posts. The job only goes out when two snapshots, 20 minutes apart, both show snow past the depth you set.

Can I keep my plow guy?

Yes. Your own operator gets first call. Vetted local pros only see the job if they don't take it.

Does the receipt help with a slip-and-fall claim?

It shows when the walk was cleared and salted, with photos. Whether that settles a claim is up to your insurer or the court.
