Run your entire yard from one live dashboard
A complete, cloud-based yard management platform that unifies gate check-in, ANPR number-plate capture, a live yard map, dock & appointment scheduling, spotter tasks and detention tracking — so yard managers, gate marshalls, spotters, dock supervisors and carriers all work from one connected control tower.
Powerful where it counts
Start with the tools that make the biggest difference at the gate and in the yard — then explore the full suite below.
ANPR Gate Automation
A camera reads each truck’s number plate and checks it in against the appointment in seconds — no manual typing, no clipboards. When the camera is down, gate marshalls fall back to a rugged handheld scanner so the gate never stops.
- Plate read & check-in in seconds
- Handheld scanner fallback when offline
- Every gate event time-stamped & logged
Live Yard Map
See every gate, lane, slot and dock door on a real-time map — know exactly where each trailer is and how long it has been sitting.
Dock & Appointments
Carriers book arrival slots online against your dock doors, spreading arrivals and cutting gate queues before they start.
Spotter Tasks & Moves
Dispatch yard drivers to move trailers from gate to dock to parking — with live status, priorities and proof of completion.
Detention & Dwell
Automatic dwell and detention timers against your free-time rules — bill or dispute charges with hard, time-stamped evidence.
Everything your yard needs to flow
Move trucks 10× faster through the gate, run 95% more efficiently, with 99.9% visibility — guaranteed.
Touchless, Faster Gates
ANPR reads plates and matches appointments automatically — trucks clear the gate in seconds instead of minutes, killing the morning queue.
Real-Time Yard Visibility
Stop walking the yard to find a trailer. A live digital map shows every asset, its status and its dwell time at a glance.
Lower Dwell & Faster Turnaround
Smart move tasks and dock scheduling keep trailers flowing, shrinking dwell time and getting carriers back on the road.
Recover Detention Revenue
Every minute is time-stamped, so detention and demurrage are calculated automatically — no more charges quietly written off.
Paperless Gate & Yard
Retire the gate register and radio chatter. Check-in, moves, seals and inspections are all captured digitally and audit-ready.
Instant Alerts & Updates
Drivers, carriers and supervisors get SMS/email and in-app alerts the moment an appointment, slot or task changes.
Tighter Security & Control
Verify seals, log every entry and exit, and know exactly who and what is on your site at any moment.
Connects To Your Stack
Open APIs link the yard to your WMS, TMS or ERP so gate and dock events flow straight into the systems you already run.
Decisions Backed By Data
30+ reports on throughput, dwell, detention, dock utilisation and driver performance turn the yard into measurable operations.
A tailored experience for every role
Yard managers, gate marshalls, spotters, dock supervisors and carriers each get their own secure portal — switch a tab to see what each one gets.
