With that in mind, we have developed a new mobile platform called Yourdriverapp. Available via the Apple and Android app stores, it combines and improves methods already in use to enhance the day-to-day running of your business.
For the vast majority of drivers, dispatchers, and company owners, multiple systems are part of daily life. From expensive dispatch systems to communication channels like Whatsapp Groups, and email lists they convolute and hamper business. However, Yourdriverapp’s purpose is to replace them with one single neat, mobile package.
He/she responds to jobs from the public and then communicates with a driver who may be available. If that driver is ready to work, the job becomes booked, and a pickup time given.
However, should the driver not be available or contactable, it becomes a repetitive process. All of which takes time, Yourdriverapp, removes this scenario, how?
As a dispatcher using the app, you will see who is available for work, on a job, and in the vicinity of the customer. How does this help? It means the driver nearest to the pickup location and available becomes automatically chosen for the job. However, if he/she does not respond within a certain amount of time, the job is offered to an additional driver.
That means the whole process from customer enquiry, to confirmation of a pickup time and location happens much faster. No longer will some customers be turned away!
As a driver, Yourdriverapp, puts him or her in constant contact with the dispatcher. Thanks to GPS location technology, his/her location is known, plus, availability is onscreen. Meaning that should a driver be available, in the right vicinity, on a break, or their shift is over the dispatcher automatically knows.
Furthermore, thanks to the inbuilt messaging feature, lines of communication are always open. Meaning, jobs can be passed between single drivers or a network of drivers.
As we have touched upon above, Yourdriverapp is an all-in-one system. By that, we mean, while a customer may call in for a pickup, the dispatcher uses the app for everything after that point. No longer is a call over the radio required or a response/request via Whatsapp. As a user, you know where everyone is, if they’re available, and almost instantly when pickup will take place.
As a free iOS and Android application, it is the most important tool a driver or fleet owner like you will ever use. We have many years of experience creating applications for mobile use. However, this one has been developed to improve the dispatching and booking process. It will be a game changer for the taxi industry, by increasing efficiency and potential earnings.
As soon as you have downloaded it, at your fingertips is the ability to build, manage, and grow your network of drivers/colleagues. Within minutes, you will be able to view driver availabilities, dispatch work, and more. From the easy to access interface of a mobile phone, at last, the dispatching process is genuinely portable.
But that is not all …
Yourdriverapp isn’t just a better way to book and dispatch; it also has the potential to grow your revenues. The platform enables you to generate extra income via your network of drivers.
How?
Don’t have the time to take on a job; you can share it and agree on a valuable commission for doing so. Additionally, the platform can calculate and take care of all payments, meaning timely payment into yours and a fellow drivers bank account.
Text communications to maintain contact with a network of drivers longer need to be via a work only device. Thanks to Yourdriverapps built-in messaging system, information is delivered instantly, is relevant and road conditions and more can be shared.
In essence, Yourdriverapp is a multi-platform dispatcher service. For it to work as designed, it requires an internet connection; this can be via Wi-Fi or mobile data. Plus, it needs to have access to yours and every driver’s location data. With that connectivity, it can keep the dispatcher informed of drivers whereabouts, availability, and provide passenger location information.
Thanks to our in-house developed data exchange technology, the app can do this in real-time and share across the network. Meaning everyone is continually informed and updated, there are no blank spots in the data.
As for basic features, there are many; however, below we have detailed some of the most important for you.
While our free app features everything you need to grow, you may already have a recognisable business/brand. As such, there is more we as developers and the Yourdriverapp can do for you. Think White Label, if the standard version, does not meet your brand esthetics, it can be tailored to your requirements.
What does that mean?
We understand that no two businesses are the same. As such we will assist you from the start until you to have the desired design and features. Ultimately, you will have an app that is personalised to your every business need.
Now that you understand how revolutionary for the Taxi industry Yourdriverapp is. Please feel free to ask us questions. Additionally, as it costs nothing to take a look, why not download it now for iOS and Android. After which if you need help we are happy to assist.
Whatever you decide, it’s clear, there’s no other platform like it available to the Taxi, and Limo driver industries.
A most relevant question. Although making money is not our first priority, it still is important to make sure there is enough income generated to be able to maximize our positive impact on our driver community.
Hundreds of thousands of taxi and limo drivers worldwide use WhatsApp groups to exchange work with fellow drivers. This makes WhatsApp by far the most used ‘dispatch system’ in the world.
ALL DRIVERS UNITE
The YourDriverApp driver cooperation platform is our gift to the global driver community. It’s the result of the calling felt to be of service and do something meaningful, something that matters in this world.
After being active for over 10 years in the market of online dispatching solutions, I realised that I had come to a turning point in my life. The whole team had worked tirelessly for about three years on a completely new collaboration platform that we were all really excited about and we were now finally ready to launch.
In the process of discussing the right marketing approach, I came to realise how much I personally had changed in those last 10 years. I realised how little interest I still had in creating yet another institution in this world that is mainly interested in money; in serving itself and its investors. When I looked more deeply into myself, I found that first and foremost I needed the project to be meaningful. Something that improves the lives of people. It should really be a positive addition to this world, not just beneficial to a small group of stakeholders while many of its users actually pay the price.
I realised there and then that we had unwittingly created the perfect starting point to do just that. Our team had managed to complete this first version of the platform without any external investors or loans and were therefore completely independent to whatever we wished. On the technical side we had created a unique dispatching platform designed to serve people (drivers) over enterprises. Our technical dispatch architecture sets it apart from anything out there in the way that it sets the person (driver, entrepreneur) central as our customer, not the business.
So here we are. Introducing YourDriverApp:
