The team here at Tomorrow.io is excited to launch driver alerts for fleet solutions! The ability to deliver alerts direct via Tomorrow.io’s new Fleet Driver Alerts App, as well via integrations with partners like Samsara, Geotab, and more is now live.
This release will enable delivering predictive alerts and insights end-to-end for drivers and fleets from the Tomorrow.io platform. By getting your weather warnings out to the drivers in advance of impact is the best way to prevent weather related accidents. Operationally speaking, you can vastly improve your efficiency by using these custom workflows to centralize how your organization predicts weather from a single source of truth, proactively responds based on standardized protocols, and streamlines communication including task acknowledgment and an activity log to act as your source of record.
