What it solves

Fewer calls, less paperwork and data you can trust

Dispatch always knows which vehicle each driver has, the odometer reading it left with, whether it passed inspection and what has happened on the road. Drivers get everything they need for the day in one app.

Vehicle assigned by dispatch

The driver sees the vehicle dispatch has assigned. Vehicles in the shop can’t be selected.

Verified mileage

Starting mileage comes from the tracker. If it doesn’t match, the driver has to explain why.

Digital pre-trip inspection

Pre-trip checklist with defects, notes and photos. No inspection, no start of shift.

Hours of Service

Time until the next break, daily and weekly driving, with the time of the last reading.

Documents on hand

DOT inspection, insurance, registration, CDL, hazmat, eBOL and receipts, with expiration alerts.

Incidents and SOS

Breakdown, accident, delay or theft, with photos and location. Emergency button that calls 911.

Messages with dispatch

Chat with quick replies and voice dictation, so nobody types while the truck is moving.

Works offline

Everything is saved on the phone and sent automatically when the signal returns, with no duplicates.

Admin savings

Calculate how many admin hours you save each month

Every call asking “which truck are you taking?”, every paper report someone has to re-enter and every document that has to be tracked down costs time, for the driver and for the office. Adjust the numbers to your fleet.

Rough estimate. The starting values are an example for a fleet of 10 drivers, not real customer data: replace them with your company’s numbers.

Start of shift

The day starts with the right vehicle and verified mileage

Selecting today’s vehicle

1Vehicle

Assigned by dispatch, with its license plate, model and the latest odometer reading from the tracker.

2Inspection and mileage

Tires, lights, brakes, fluid levels, trailer… Each defect with a note and photo. Mileage is pre-filled: the driver confirms or corrects it.

App home screen with an active shift

3Start

Until a vehicle is selected and the inspection is complete, the start button stays disabled. Then come the day’s route and the next stop.

If the mileage doesn’t add up, you’ll know

If the driver enters less mileage than the tracker, or more than 30 miles above it, the app asks why. Your system gets both numbers, the driver’s and the GPS reading, so you can review them.

Hours of Service and paperwork, always in view

How long they can drive until the next break, and how much they’ve driven today and this week. Plus every trip, vehicle and driver document, with its status.

  • HOS dataPulled from the vehicle’s tachograph/ELD, with the time of the reading. For reference only: the certified device is what counts during an inspection, and the app says so.
  • Documents with expiration dateseBOL, delivery receipts, DOT inspection, insurance, spec sheet, registration, CDL and hazmat: valid, expiring or expired.
  • Scan with the cameraThe driver snaps a photo of a new document and it’s saved to the trip.

Messages with dispatch
On the road

When something happens on the road, dispatch knows right away

Incidents backed by evidence, messages that don’t distract and an emergency button always within reach.

  • Incidents with evidenceType, severity, description, photos and location. If the breakdown stops the vehicle, it’s flagged as high severity.
  • Distraction-free messagingQuick replies (“There in 10 min”, “Customer not home”) and voice dictation. New stops arrive as notifications.
  • EmergenciesPressing and holding the SOS button calls 911 and alerts dispatch with the driver’s location.
Syncing with no signal
End of shift
Coverage and end of shift

No signal at the port or in the industrial park? Nothing gets lost

The route, the shift and the documents stay saved on the phone. And the shift is closed out with server data, not data from the phone.

  • Works offlineDeliveries, inspections and incidents are queued and sent automatically when the signal returns, in order and with no duplicates.
  • Daily mileage from the trackerYour server calculates mileage using the vehicle’s tracker.
  • No loose ends at close-outIf any stop is still unresolved, the app won’t let the driver close out and shows which one.

Does it work with no signal?

Yes. Everything is saved on the phone and sent automatically, in order and with no duplicates, when the signal returns.
