## What is Vantage YMS?

Run the yard from your phone. Vantage YMS replaces the clipboard, the spreadsheet, and the $50K/year gate system with the phone already in your pocket.

Built for 3PLs, distribution centers, and warehouses that need trailer visibility today, not after a six-month IT project.

WHY VANTAGE
• Stand up in under 10 minutes — your first trailer scan happens the same day you install.
• No expensive scanners or kiosks. The phone in your pocket is the terminal.
• Works in the yard, in the dock, and in the truck — even with no signal.
• Bilingual out of the box: English and Spanish.
• Designed for gloves, sunlight, and 12-hour shifts.

PRICING
14-day free trial. Lite $149/mo. Pro $349/mo. Scale $649/mo. Enterprise on request. No setup fee, no scanner hardware, no per-gate charge.

CORE FEATURES

AI TRAILER SCANNING
Point the camera at a trailer or container and the number is read in seconds. Every scan passes through 5-stage AI validation that catches mis-reads automatically, and accuracy keeps improving as your team uses it. Works on-device, even with no signal.

C-TPAT 7-POINT INSPECTION
Digital 7-point inspection following CBP criteria. Photo evidence, driver signature, GPS-tagged timestamps, and a SHA-256 hash on every photo bundle into a single PDF audit support pack — designed to support customs and security audit workflows.

GATE OPERATIONS
Gate IN and Gate OUT in under 30 seconds. Walk-in trailers and scheduled appointments handled in the same flow. BOL number and trailer number always travel together — no more orphan records.

YARD MANAGEMENT
Slot list view, dock occupancy, and bulk Yard Check scanning. Multi-site sites switch in one tap.

OFFLINE-FIRST
Real offline operation, not "cached UI." A 500-item local queue holds up to 14 days of work and reconciles automatically when you reconnect. Conflicts use last-write-wins with full audit history. No lost transactions.

TASK MANAGEMENT
Forklift operators and yard drivers get auto-assigned LIVE LOAD / DROP & HOOK / MOVE tasks. Pre-shift safety checks before the first job. Equipment defects tagged out of service for the rest of the shift.

APPOINTMENT SCHEDULING
Carriers book dock slots; managers approve. No-show detection, urgency flagging, and detention timer tracking built in.

ANALYTICS
Live KPIs for gate volume, dock utilization, dwell time, and OCR accuracy. Drill from a single number down to the trailer that caused it.

CARRIER PORTAL
External carriers self-serve appointments, see their trailers in real time, and file detention disputes — without a phone call to dispatch.

DRIVER LICENSE SCAN
PDF417 barcode read with AAMVA parser. Driver name, DOB, expiration, and class auto-populated for US and Canadian licenses.

PRIVACY & SECURITY
Row-Level Security on every table. SOC 2 controls in progress. End-to-end TLS. GDPR and CCPA-aligned data retention. Photos and personal data scoped per site.
