DVIR · fleets of 5–50 · no ELD · no telematics · no per-vehicle fee
Odometer. Tires. Lights. Signed.
Twenty-three lines, one screen, one signature — written to the phone's own storage before anything touches the network. Dead zone, closed tunnel, flat battery, crashed tab: the morning's inspection stays on the device and files itself when a signal comes back.
The app it replaces loses the paperwork
Fleetio Go — the mobile client of the platform PreShift replaces for small fleets — is a 20,000-rating app with a 4.6 average, and a recent review wall that says one thing over and over: the inspection disappears. Verbatim, dated, public:
“Trying to do a pretrip this morning the app keeps restarting.”App Store review, 2026-01-14
“it constantly refreshes in the middle of an inspection.”App Store review, 2026-01-20
“Can never submit.”App Store review, 2026-03-09
“Freezes and doesn't save data entered.”App Store review, 2026-04-24
That is the whole argument. PreShift is not a fleet platform. It is one job — capture a pre-trip inspection without losing it — done so that losing it is not possible. A driver's answer is on the device before a single byte is sent.
Why the record cannot go missing
Saved on the phone first
Pressing Finish inspection saves the answers, every photo and the signature on the phone — all at once. Only then does the app try the network.
The queue drains itself
Every record carries an id, so a retry after a lost answer returns the original record on the server instead of a duplicate. Photos upload by content hash — a resumed upload is the same upload.
A refusal is not a loss
When the fleet server refuses a record — a mis-keyed odometer, a photo missing — the device keeps the record, the photos and the reason. The driver fixes the field and resends the same record.
The clipboard, and what the office gets
Price
- Flat, per fleet — not per vehicle. A 30-vehicle fleet pays the same as a 5-vehicle one.
- Unlimited drivers and unlimited inspections
- Defect follow-up with close-out notes and photos
- Per-inspection PDF for the file, and a fleet defect summary
- CSV export of every inspection and defect — your data leaves with you
- Cancel any time, no contract
Checkout is handled by Stripe: $39.00/mo, billed monthly in advance, cancel any time. After checkout a person emails you to set up the fleet and hand over a login.
What it deliberately is not
- No ELD, no telematics, no GPS ping — nothing to install in a van
- No "book a call" funnel; the demo is open and unauthenticated
- No per-vehicle pricing game at renewal
Who it is for
Service vans, box trucks, trailers and non-CDL fleets of 5–50 where the pre-trip inspection is a legal habit, not a telematics byproduct.
Questions drivers and owners ask
One login per driver, or one per vehicle?
Per driver. One login, many vehicles — the unit is picked at the top of the check.
What if the phone dies mid-inspection?
Answers stay in the form as they are tapped, and the record is on the device the moment it is finished. A dead battery costs you the taps that were on screen.
Does the office see a defect before the driver is back?
Yes. Any signal is enough, and a critical defect holds the unit out of service in the app until the close-out note is on file.
Do we have to use your checklist?
No. You start from a built-in DVIR list of 23 codes with severities; every fleet can edit codes, categories and photo requirements.
