Buddytruk
Santa Monica, CA, ~10 employees, Founded in 2013

The startup now operates in Los Angeles, Chicago, Austin, and Orange County.

KeepTruckin ELD
San Francisco, CA, ~50 employees, Founded in 2013
$10.3M in total funding, Series A led by Index Ventures
The majority of truckers maintain paper logbooks to record their hours of service (HOS). Drivers then share those paper logs with their fleet, which is a largely manual process that necessitates sorting faxes and mail documents.
The federal government has mandated that by December 2017 all commercial vehicles must record HOS using an engine-connected Electronic Logging Device (ELD), which will impact 4.5 million drivers across the US and Canada. The KeepTruckin ELD captures the necessary HOS data and reports on it via a fleet manager dashboard.
More than just an ELD mandate compliance solution — the KeepTruckin Dashboard for fleets helps managers automatically edit driver logs, track vehicles in real-time, and communicate with drivers.
Over 250,000 drivers and 10,000 fleets with sizes ranging up to 600 vehicles use KeepTruckin electronic logs.
