Gemini-native · Voice-first · Built for the cab
The AI co-pilot for
professional truck drivers.
A Gemini-powered voice assistant that gives European truckers truck-safe navigation, automatic tachograph (hours-of-service) guidance, and hands-free AI — so they never take their hands off the wheel or eyes off the road.
Gemini 2.0 Flash — in production
6M+ EU trucks
Working app + live demo
Problem
Commercial driving is complex, dangerous, and heavily penalized.
- Regulatory penalties. EU Regulation 561/2006 (hours-of-service) fines reach up to €5,000 per violation, and the Smart Tachograph V2 mandate is forcing retrofits across the fleet right now.
- Unsafe routing. Consumer apps (Google Maps, Waze) don't know truck dimensions — they route heavy trucks under low bridges and into weight-restricted zones.
- Driver distraction. Tapping through navigation and watching tachograph timers while driving is a top safety hazard — and Europe is short ~500,000 drivers.
Solution
One voice. Hands on the wheel.
- Gemini voice co-pilot. Ask anything by voice — routes, parking, rest times, restrictions — and get spoken answers plus live map actions. No screen tapping.
- Truck-safe navigation. HGV routing by vehicle profile (weight, height, length, axles, ADR hazmat) with live restrictions, driving bans by country, speed cameras and parking.
- Automatic tachograph / HOS. Tracks EU 561/2006 driving and rest limits, warns before the 4.5h / 9h / weekly limits, and finds legal parking before time runs out.
Why Gemini
Built on Gemini, not bolted on.
- In production today. Gemini 2.0 Flash powers the in-cab assistant and voice transcription — not a roadmap promise, it's live in the app.
- Function-calling navigation. Voice intent → structured map actions (set route, add waypoint, avoid restriction, find parking) executed on the map.
- Multilingual by design. EU drivers cross borders daily (Bulgarian, Polish, Romanian, Spanish…). Gemini's language range is a real edge over legacy nav.
- Where we're going. Gemini-only navigation, Gemini Vision ("snap the road sign, I'll tell you if you can pass"), and Gemini Live for real-time in-cab conversation.
Market
A massive, underserved, regulated sector.
€350B
European road freight — moves 70%+ of land cargo
6M+

Smart Tachograph V2 retrofit mandate — the "why now"
Market figures are industry estimates (IRU / EU Commission) and are being verified.
Status & Traction
A working product, not a slide.
- Shipping app. React Native (Android), signed release build, running on real hardware with live demo clips.
- Live backend. Flask on Google-friendly infra (Postgres + Redis), JWT auth, Gemini + navigation APIs in production.
- Beyond MVP. Android Auto module, B2B fleet dashboard (live driver location + HOS), offline maps, RevenueCat subscriptions wired.
- Honest stage. Solo founder (a long-haul driver who lives the problem), pre-revenue, seeking first partners and early users.
Business Model
Two revenue lines.
- B2C subscription. Monthly plan for individual drivers — premium voice, HOS planning, and navigation.
- B2B fleet. Dashboard + API licenses for fleet operators to track real-time driver compliance and telemetry — where the recurring revenue scales.
The Ask
What we're looking for from Google.
- Early access to Gemini (and Veo / Imagen) to build our next 0-to-1 in-cab features.
- Google Cloud credits + technical support to scale the AI and backend.
- Collaboration with Google DeepMind / Labs engineers to make trucking a flagship Gemini automotive use case.
- Potential investment as traction grows.
