App Features

This feature saves hours of searching by prioritizing jobs that match your preferences, such as short-haul routes or specific commodities like refrigerated goods.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: How often does the fuel price database update? Will premium gas prices appear?
A: The fuel price tracking system pulls from terminal feeds hourly, displaying regular and premium rates. Some users enable custom tagging for preferred fuel stops, with price history stored for six months via detailed analytics charts.

Q: Can I submit fuel receipts without internet access? Will they upload automatically?
A: Yes—using the offline mode, you can log purchases with GPS coordinates and notes. When connected, receipts automatically sync in batch; otherwise, they’re stored locally until upload is possible to prevent data loss during transit.

Q: What documentation can I store in the app besides fuel receipts?
A: The system accepts PDFs, images, and digital copies of your CDL, power of attorney, DOT regulations, insurance cards, and state licenses. All files are password-protected by user role and can be accessed instantly for inspections or audits.

Q: How does the load board integrate with my current dispatch systems?
A: Most dispatchers use the web-based interface for sending updates, but our app supports API integration with major dispatch software. For non-technical users, we offer step-by-step onboarding to manually sync jobs through email attachments or text messages.

Q: Can the fuel tracking save me money on maintenance?
A: Yes—consistent logging builds detailed vehicle mileage histories and fuel efficiency reports. These analytics can flag unusual consumption patterns, signaling potential maintenance needs before costly breakdowns occur on the road.
