Every role supported.
Every journey connected.
Dedicated school bus tracking tools for parents, bus assistants, school administrators and control room teams, with safety built into the trip workflow.
A calmer morning. A more certain afternoon.
Keep families informed from the moment the trip starts until their child reaches school or home. Parents choose the updates that help them plan their day.
- Follow the bus location and see the progress of the pickup or return trip.
- Set custom alert points and receive in-app calls when the bus reaches a selected location.
- Receive trip-start, attendance, boarding and arrival notifications.

Bring daily trip tasks together on a compatible smartphone. Assistants can focus on student boarding, attendance and the physical checks each journey needs.
