Dispatch software

One complete system for NEMT, school and taxi fleets

Dispatch, driver app, passenger app, booking channels, back office and an operator portal in one cloud platform. Run your operation with more control, records you can rely on and room to grow, for NEMT, special needs students, school transportation, paratransit, taxi and limo.

Dispatch

See every trip and step in before anything runs late

Follow your vehicles live, assign trips by hand or automatically, and set up dispatch to match the way you work.

  • Every vehicle on the map, with its position and status in real time.
  • Estimated arrival times (ETAs) recalculated all along the route.
  • An alert when a stop is at risk of running late, so you can let the school, the facility or the rider know in time.
  • Move, change and reassign trips right away.
  • Edit many bookings at once.
  • Out sick? Select the week in the calendar and cancel every trip with one click.
  • NEMT, school transportation, paratransit and taxi in one system.

Route optimization

Recurring trips and AI-based route optimization

  • Plan anything from hundreds to thousands of trips in minutes with our AI-powered optimizer.
  • Works for standing orders, recurring school trips and one-off bookings.

  • The AI plans, but you stay in control and see every route on the map.
  • Simulate different fleet mixes for your transportation demand.
  • See miles driven, vehicle and driver costs, and CO2 emissions.
  • Plan with historical traffic data and automatic measurements of boarding and exiting times.

Live follow-up

Watch every route as it happens

  • Scheduled and estimated time for every pickup and drop-off, updated all the time.
  • Delays show before they happen, and completed stops are checked off.
  • No-shows are canceled on the spot, with a note from the driver.

Needs and requirements

Built for the complex trips

  • Your own attributes and fields, such as a wheelchair, a harness, a car seat or an aide on board.
  • Attributes can be information or requirements: only vehicles and drivers that meet them get the trip.
  • Seat types, vehicle types and booking screens are yours to set up.

Points that win the best trips

  • Reward drivers with points when they take the less profitable trips.

Audit trail and data privacy

See who changed what

  • Every change to resources, such as vehicles, rates and users, is saved with the time, the user and the values before and after, and every change to bookings is logged too.
  • Customer accounts and trips no longer in use are anonymized, for example everything inactive for a year.
  • Permissions by role for your administrators.
