Real-time fleet tracking and geolocation

Fleet tracking means knowing, at any time, where a company's vehicles are, which trips they make and what condition they are in. The data comes from a GPS tracker or straight from the connected vehicle. It is used to dispatch jobs, protect vehicles and prove work done, within the frame set by the CNIL, France's data protection authority.

In one of two ways. A GPS box plugged into the vehicle's OBD port sends its position over the mobile network. Or, for a connected vehicle, the data comes straight from the manufacturer, with nothing fitted. Either way, the position shows on the web platform and in the mobile app.

In France, yes, within the frame set by the CNIL, the data protection authority: for the safety of employees and vehicles, tracking a service, or better dispatching of call-outs. Employees and their representatives are informed beforehand. It may not be used to check speed or to follow an employee outside working hours: the employee must be able to switch tracking off.

It has to be fitted in every vehicle, it comes with a subscription, and its use must be framed: employees informed, purposes limited, nothing collected outside working hours. Poorly explained, it feels like surveillance. Connected vehicles avoid the fitting, and private mode leaves drivers in control of their personal journeys.

At Dadycar it is included in the Fleet + Telematics plan, at €16 excl. VAT per vehicle per month, with no hardware: the data comes straight from the connected vehicle. There is no minimum term. The plans are detailed on the pricing page.

A GPS tracker is an electronic device used in fleet management that allows real-time vehicle tracking using the satellite vehicle geolocation system (GPS). It receives satellite signals to determine the exact position of the vehicle and transmits this data via a cellular or satellite network to a fleet tracking platform.

The GPS tracker receives signals from satellites and collects geolocation data, supplemented by other information such as speed This data is then transmitted via the cellular network to our secure platform You can easily access it from your web browser or our mobile app Dadycar's artificial intelligence analyzes it to provide you with relevant insights and optimization tips.

The benefits are numerous: route optimization, significant cost reduction (fuel, maintenance, insurance), enhanced safety (drivers, vehicles), improved productivity, easier GDPR compliance, and a complete overview for proactive fleet management. It's an investment that pays off quickly.

Absolutely. Dadycar integrates specific features for electric vehicle fleets (EVs): charge level monitoring, remaining range, and charging station location. AI can also analyze trips to identify the best combustion vehicles to replace with EVs, supporting your energy transition.

Dadycar's AI intervenes at several levels:

• Route optimization : More refined than standard tools (considering multiple factors).

• Predictive maintenance : Based on usage data and engine fault code analysis.

• Behavioral analysis : More nuanced to identify real risks and potential savings.

• Mission Assignment : Smarter and faster.

Yes. Our solution is strictly designed to comply with GDPR and French/European legislation. We provide detailed configuration options (time slots, privacy mode), support consent management, and ensure data security while justifying the purpose of processing (security, optimization, working time where applicable).

Yes, it’s possible thanks to vehicles natively connected by the manufacturer (OEM). More and more recent models come equipped with built-in OEM connectivity systems that already transmit essential data.
