Detours Fleet Ops
Read full descriptionHide full description
Detours is the all-in-one operations app for gravel, dump truck, and live-bottom fleets. From the first load of the day to the final invoice, Detours keeps drivers, dispatchers, and owners working from one source of truth — no paper tickets, no spreadsheets, no end-of-month guesswork. BUILT FOR HOW HAUL FLEETS ACTUALLY WORK Detours follows the real haul cycle — plant to site, load to dump, ticket to payment — so the data you capture in the cab becomes the money you collect at month-end. FOR DRIVERS • Snap a photo of a delivery ticket — AI reads the ticket number and weight automatically • Run haul cycles with one tap: load, dump, return, repeat • Pre-trip inspections and fuel receipts, all in the app • See your dispatched jobs for the day at a glance FOR DISPATCHERS & OWNERS • Live GPS tracking of every active truck on a map • Review and approve PODs, set rates per customer route • Auto-generate customer invoices with correct HST — no manual math • Driver and owner-operator settlements calculated automatically from approved loads • Maintenance logs, safety certifications, and inspection records in one place • Ask Pulse: type a plain-English question about your fleet and get an instant answer ACCURATE BILLING, EVERY TIME Detours computes haul subtotals, fuel surcharges, and HST from the rates you set per customer and route — so invoices and driver pay always match the work that was done. SECURE BY DESIGN Face ID / Touch ID unlock, encrypted sessions, and company-scoped data isolation keep each fleet's information private. Detours is a tool for fleet businesses — access is provided by your company. Currency, tax, and compliance are tuned for Canadian (Ontario) operations.

Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Detours Fleet Ops at none against Canada Post's shown. Canada Post's advantage is update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 2 months). On price, in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
