What is FleetOS?
FleetOS is a lite TMS with dispatch and detention recovery for independent Canadian LTL carriers. It reads load tenders from Gmail or EDI, builds trips on a dispatch board, and keeps the notices, timestamps and supporting files for each load in one record that billing can invoice from.
How does FleetOS handle detention?
FleetOS checks open stops every five minutes and flags a stop when its free time runs out. Dispatch then confirms the driver is still on site, or records the departure, before any notice goes to the customer. Confirmed detention is stored with the load and carried into the invoice and any dispute.
Does FleetOS email customers on its own?
No. Free-time expiry only flags the stop for dispatch. A person confirms the driver is still on site, or saves the completed departure time, before a notice is sent. ETA updates are held for approval unless you turn on automatic sending for a specific customer.
Do we need to replace our TMS or give drivers an app?
No. FleetOS runs beside the Gmail inbox, spreadsheets or TMS you already use, and drivers keep reporting by phone, text or WhatsApp. Dispatch logs the times, and photos of signed PODs sent over WhatsApp land on the right load.
Who is FleetOS built for?
Independent Canadian carriers running roughly 10 to 80 trucks, especially LTL carriers in Ontario that handle freight for brokers and 3PLs and want detention documented and billed consistently.
How does the pilot work, and what does FleetOS cost?
The pilot is 30 days and free, with no card. You connect one dispatch inbox, follow real loads, and join a short weekly review. After the pilot, Starter is $149 CAD per month and Growth is $299 CAD per month. Enterprise is priced to the rollout.
