Overview

What it is

No one likes waiting in a damn line. Track live line activity for NYC restaurants and venues with real-time queue snapshots and wait-time signals. See wait times at L'Industrie, Salt Hank's, and more.

Intent

I need it when

Integrate live queue data into a third-party application or service

damnlines offers a public REST API with endpoints for locations, snapshots, videos, line counts, and streaming data, enabling developers to embed real-time wait times and queue information into their own applications

Check live wait times before visiting a popular NYC restaurant or venue

damnlines provides real-time queue snapshots and wait-time estimates for NYC restaurants and venues using computer vision analysis of live camera feeds, allowing users to see current line lengths and estimated wait times before deciding to visit

Analyze historical queue patterns and service rates at specific venues

damnlines API provides backfill endpoints for snapshots, videos, and line-count timeseries with configurable intervals (raw, 1m, 5m, 1h), allowing users to query historical data and compute service rates and wait patterns over time

Monitor queue activity in real-time as it happens

damnlines offers Server-Sent Events (SSE) and WebSocket streaming endpoints that fan out live events the moment new snapshots are processed, enabling real-time subscription to queue updates without polling
