Owner-operators and fleet managers need to know what's going on with their trucks before it turns into a breakdown. I designed and built Volks Connect, a mobile app that talks to the truck over Bluetooth and turns raw vehicle data (SAE J1939) into information drivers can act on.

What it does

  • Live vehicle data. Fuel, battery, range and lighting controls, in real time.

  • Fault alerts. Mechanical issues show up right away, before they turn into downtime.

  • Trips & expenses. Log trips, follow progress live and record expenses on the road.

  • Driver scoring. Measurable habits that encourage safer, more fuel-efficient driving.

  • Digital checklists. Guided inspections with an audit trail for compliance.

  • Reports. Fuel consumption, distance and scores for better planning and lower costs.

  • One app, many trucks. Manage a single truck or a whole fleet from the same place.

The outcome

Drivers and fleet owners stop reacting to problems and start preventing them — with the whole operation in one app.
