Brokers don't want to babysit you. They want a link. A status. An ETA. Dispatch by FleetCollect turns your phone into the easiest carrier to work with. THREE THINGS, ZERO PHONE CALLS Accept the load when dispatched. Tap "Navigate" to head to pickup. Take a photo of the signed POD at delivery. GPS handles every status update in between — en route, at pickup, loaded, at delivery, delivered. That's it. No "where are you at" calls. No screenshots from a load board. No begging for a POD. WHAT YOU GET • Live truck tracking — every driver, every load, on one map • Load board — every load organized by status (new, dispatched, in transit, delivered, paid) • Scan Rate Cons & BOLs — snap a photo, AI fills in broker, pickup, delivery, rate, and reference numbers • POD capture — one button on every delivery. Photo. Done. Stored. • Auto-status updates — GPS detects pickup arrival, loaded, delivery arrival, delivered • Broker-ready ETAs — share a live tracking link instead of taking calls • Invoice in one tap — generates a clean PDF invoice from the rate con, ready to email • Revenue tracking — see what you earned, what's outstanding, what's paid BUILT BY A DRIVER, NOT A SOFTWARE COMPANY As a driver and carrier myself, I built FleetCollect to fix the parts of dispatching that nobody bothered to fix. The phone calls. The lost PODs. The invoices that take two weeks to leave the office. Every feature starts with real feedback from dispatchers and owner-operators — not a product team that's never set foot in a truck stop. WHO IT'S FOR • Owner-operators running 1–3 trucks • Small fleets (under 25 trucks) that don't want enterprise TMS bloat • Dispatchers tired of spreadsheets, group texts, and "where are they at" • Anyone who'd rather be moving freight than chasing paperwork PLANS Solo, Starter, Growth, and Professional — start with the plan that fits your fleet, upgrade anytime. Cancel anytime in your Apple ID settings. FleetCollect Dispatch is part of the FleetCollect platform — DQF compliance, IFTA fuel tax tracking, driver onboarding, and dispatch. One login, one place.
