Every driver, every mile, live.
GPS and ELD feed a live map of every driver on every move, the same data Dispatch uses to plan and reassign. Geofences fire on arrival and departure, ETAs recalculate continuously, and the dispatcher sees a detention or a detour before the customer calls asking where their container is.
How it works
Driver events stream in from GPS, ELD, and the driver app
Position pings every 30 seconds. ELD hours-of-service pulled continuously. Check-in and check-out taps logged the instant the driver acts.
Position matched to the move: terminal, customer, chassis pool
GPS coordinates matched against live geofences for terminals, yards, and delivery addresses. Entry and exit events fire without a driver call.
ETA recalculated on every ping: no more guessing
Traffic, dwell time, and detours feed a live ETA per stop. Customers see the same number the dispatcher sees, updated automatically.
Exceptions surfaced the moment they happen, not at end of day
Late arrival, unplanned detour, or a missed geofence exit triggers an alert to the dispatcher before the customer has to ask.
Before Doublefast: visibility means calling the driver
“Where are you?” is a phone call, not a data point. Dispatchers interrupt drivers mid-route for status, guess ETAs from memory, and find out about detention only when the driver mentions it at the end of the day.
After Doublefast: the map is the status update
Location, ETA, and dwell time update automatically from GPS and ELD, no calls required. Exceptions surface the moment they happen: late arrival, geofence miss, or a truck idling where it shouldn't be.
Built for the real world.
A driver goes quiet for 40 minutes mid-route. GPS shows the truck idling two miles from the terminal with no geofence exit logged. We flag it as a possible detention event, cross-check ELD hours, and alert the dispatcher before the customer calls asking where their container is.

Customs hold
A customs hold lands at discharge; terminal blocks pickup, LFD clock keeps running. We detect it immediately, draft a notification to the customs broker, and queue the appointment to fire the moment it clears.
Container still on vessel
DO arrives before discharge. LFD won't post until after the vessel berths. We monitor discharge status and capture the LFD the moment the terminal sets it.
Chassis split
Container available at the terminal, chassis pool tapped out, so the driver deadheads to a nearby yard. We detect the split, adjust the move sequence, and bill the extra chassis time exactly.
Appointment cancelled day-of
Terminal cancels a confirmed slot with no notice, common across terminal booking portals. We detect it within seconds and re-snipe immediately.
LFD change after vessel berths
Steamship line adjusts free time; terminal portal and steamship line website show different dates. We pull both, take the tighter date, and re-sort the dispatch queue.
Accessorial mismatch
Redelivery logged on paper, not in the app. Fuel surcharge at 15% when the contract says 12%. We reconcile every accessorial against the delivery confirmation before the invoice goes out.
What Doublefast handles. What's yours.
Doublefast handles
- ✓Streams GPS and ELD position for every driver, every move
- ✓Matches position against terminal, yard, and delivery geofences
- ✓Recalculates ETAs continuously as conditions change
- ✓Flags detentions, detours, and missed geofence exits the moment they happen
Your team handles
- →Decides how to respond to a flagged exception
- →Keeps using the driver app, ELD, and GPS hardware already in place
This is how Dispatch always knows where things stand.
Driver tracking isn't a separate system to adopt — it's the live position data the Dispatch module already runs on. See the full module, or start with the workflow causing the most pain today.
