Aiwatrack — Real-time Fleet Tracking Platform

A logistics operator needed live visibility over a growing fleet — location, routes, and geofence alerts — without the lag and cost of off-the-shelf trackers.

The challenge

The problem to solve

The client relied on disconnected consumer trackers with minute-long delays and no fleet-level view. Dispatchers were calling drivers to confirm locations, and there was no way to enforce routes or get alerts when a vehicle left an assigned zone.

Our approach

How we got there

We built an event-driven backend that ingests GPS pings at scale, a websocket layer for sub-second map updates, and a dispatcher dashboard with geofencing, route history, and instant alerts. We rolled it out fleet-by-fleet to keep operations running throughout.

The journey

From idea to launch

1

Discovery

Rode along with dispatchers to map the real workflow and failure points.

2

Architecture

Designed an ingestion pipeline built for thousands of concurrent devices.

3

Build & test

Shipped the map, geofencing, and alerts in tested increments.

4

Rollout

Migrated fleets in phases with training and on-call support.
