Motive ELD Sync — driver HOS, GPS & odometer in TMSDASH
Connect your Motive ELD/telematics account to auto-sync driver HOS duty status and GPS positions, plus vehicle odometer readings, into TMSDASH each day. Drivers and vehicles are matched by email/name and unit number, duty changes are logged to the driver duty log, and a sync-status badge inside the Motive integration card shows the last successful run and any errors — so you always know the sync is healthy. No-ops cleanly until you add your Motive API key and optional company ID in Settings → Integrations.

An in-app AI assistant that answers operational questions and takes real actions across your TMSDASH data — loads, drivers, customers, invoices, maintenance, compliance, fuel, documents, and marketplace postings — right from a slide-out panel. It runs a bounded tool-calling loop: reading live data, then creating or updating records as you ask, with every write ownership-verified against your workspace and every tool result sanitized before it re-enters the model.
An external portal where your brokered carriers view and claim loads. Carriers sign in with an account, a share link, or an MC+PIN — no TMSDASH seat required.
Send documents out for legally-binding e-signatures. Place signature, initial, and date fields on any PDF, route to recipients in order, and track status through viewed → signed.
Tamper-evident record-keeping on the Base blockchain. Every new BOL, DVIR, invoice, signed document, and uploaded file gets a SHA-256 fingerprint anchored on-chain automatically, and a daily driver-GPS integrity commitment hashes each carrier's GPS activity once per morning. Only hashes go on-chain — document files, GPS coordinates, payments, and customer data always stay in TMSDASH private storage. The anchoring page tracks every anchor with verification, transaction tracking, and a testnet-to-mainnet network switch.
