3 steps to set up. 3 that run daily.

Up and running in a day. Running itself by week two.

No IT department. No six-figure implementation. Just a straight path from importing your fleet to closing your first billing cycle.

Phase 1 · One-time setup

Get the foundation in place

STEP 01~15 min

Bring your people and fleet on board

Drop in your members, drivers, and vehicles. Bulk import from a spreadsheet or add them one at a time—whatever's faster for you.

  • Member profiles with IDs, photos, and facility affiliation
  • Drivers with license class, hire date, and role permissions
  • Vehicles with plate, VIN, capacity, and maintenance schedule
  • Multi-facility and multi-company scoping out of the box
STEP 02~10 min

Connect your trip sources

Plug in your brokers and partners once—trips flow in on their own after that. Or create trips manually and import in bulk anytime.

  • MTM Link and CTS broker ingestion
  • Inbound trip requests from CareNest adult day care partners
  • Bulk CSV import for legacy data or weekly uploads
  • Manual trip creation for same-day add-ons
STEP 03~20 min

Build your recurring routes

Set up a route once with its origin, destination, and schedule. Assign members with their day-of-week and stop position—it runs itself from there.

  • Daily, weekday, or custom recurrence patterns
  • Per-member day-of-week schedules and stop positions
  • Default driver and vehicle per route, override by date
  • AI optimizer sequences stops and trims dead miles
Then every day looks like this

Phase 2 · Daily loop

The rhythm that runs itself

STEP 04Every morning

Dispatch opens the board

One screen shows every route, every driver, every stop. Drag-and-drop adjustments, instant reassignment, live status the moment something changes.

  • Live vehicle map powered by OneStepGPS
  • One-click ad-hoc trips for same-day add-ons
  • Filter by facility, driver, or vehicle
  • Session-level overrides without touching the master schedule
STEP 05Throughout the day

Drivers run the day from the app

Native iOS and Android apps give drivers turn-by-turn nav, one-tap status updates, and offline GPS so they're never stuck in a dead zone.

  • Pre- and post-trip vehicle inspections with photos
  • E-signatures with GPS-stamped timestamps
  • Custom forms for state and broker requirements
  • Real-time sync with the dispatch board
STEP 06End of week

Billing, payroll, and reports close it out

Broker payments reconcile against the trips you ran. Driver payroll runs off actual hours. Reports email themselves to whoever needs them.

  • Remittance reconciliation for MTM, CTS, and others
  • Private pay invoicing via Stripe
  • Driver payroll with overtime and adjustments
  • Scheduled email delivery for any report

Before & after

What it replaces vs. what you get

Drop

  • Spreadsheets that nobody trusts
  • A group chat pretending to be dispatch
  • Phone calls to confirm every pickup
  • Three separate tools that don't talk
  • Manual billing reconciliation
  • Paper inspection forms in the glove box

Keep

  • One live view of every route and stop
  • Dispatch, drivers, and billing on the same data
  • Automatic trip ingestion from brokers
  • AI routing that actually saves miles
  • Audit-ready history for every change
  • Drivers who don't need training

Common questions

You were probably about to ask

How long does onboarding really take?

Most operations are running their first live route within a day. Full migration of historical data typically wraps in a week—we help with the bulk imports.

Do I need an IT team?

No. If you can use a spreadsheet, you can run ZeitRide. The apps are in the App Store and Google Play—drivers install them and sign in.

What if my broker isn't listed?

Most brokers accept a standard trip file. If you're on MTM Link or CTS we integrate directly; for others we'll import CSVs or wire up a custom pull—talk to us on the demo.

Can I keep my existing billing flow?

Yes. ZeitRide handles end-to-end billing natively, but you can also export trips to your current billing tool if that's working for you.

Want to see your own workflow on ZeitRide?

Bring a route, a couple of drivers, and your current process. 15 minutes, zero pitch.
