Built for transit mechanics who
fix buses, not learn software.
AR-guided PMs, HV LOTO, and pre-trip inspections on iPad or Quest 3 — your fleet's tribal knowledge, captured and searchable.
Three things every Maintenance Director
is losing sleep over.
We built this for Carlos — the 48-year-old Director of Vehicle Maintenance who came up from mechanic and now runs 3 depots and 120 techs. If you know Carlos, you know the pain.
Your best mechanics are retiring
Three to five senior techs walk out the door every year — and 20 years of tribal knowledge walks with them. New hires take 6–12 months to reach the same competency, and the paper binders don't teach the tricks.
HV LOTO on an electric bus is one skipped step from a fatality
Battery-electric and hydrogen fleets mean 600V+ powertrains in your bay. There is no forgiveness on lockout / tagout order — and a photocopied checklist doesn't verify the tech actually did each step.
FTA audits demand records nobody keeps updated
Section 5307/5311 grants and CARB ZEB compliance require timestamped maintenance evidence. Your current answer is a clipboard, an Excel file, and a hope that Miguel remembered to sign it before shift change.
Your mechanic's shift, digitized end-to-end.
No new hardware, no headset training curve. Every step shipping today on a paired shared iPad in the bay.
- 01
Operator logs in on the shared iPad
Bay iPad stays paired to the depot. Mechanic taps their name, punches PIN, and picks the guide for the coach they're working — no per-tech device, no separate account.
- 02
Steps up on screen, hands on the bus
Each step shows what to do with photos, torque specs, and part numbers. Tap OK, Not OK, Skip, or Knock-Out per step — every tap timestamped.
- 03
Reference the OEM manual without leaving the flow
Tap the 'i' button on any step to open the linked reference PDF (New Flyer PM manual, ADA lift service bulletin, brake spec sheet). Never search a network drive mid-job again.
- 04
Sign off at the end
Mechanic signs on the iPad. Guide locks. If a supervisor sign-off is required (HV LOTO, road-worthy release), it queues for their signature before the report closes.
- 05
Completion report auto-emails
The signed PDF ships to the shop supervisor and your FTA compliance folder within seconds of completion. Nothing to file. Nothing to lose.
Every tap timestamped. Every signature captured. Every report auto-emailed to the shop supervisor and the FTA folder.
Every tool your shop is using today —
and why it's costing you.
What multi-depot agencies actually asked for.
Quest 3 for HV LOTO trainers
$400 headset vs $3,500 HoloLens. Immersive HV isolation training in the training bay with hologram persistence — same guide content as the iPad, no separate authoring.
Works offline in bus bays
Steel roof, concrete walls, cell dead zones — guides cache to the iPad and sync when it's back on Wi-Fi. No 'connection required' error mid-PM.
Master template, depot-specific children
Author the master PM once at HQ. Push it to every depot. Each depot layers its own local variants (route hazards, contractor procedures) without breaking the master.
Role-based sign-off
Mechanic signs their steps. Supervisor signs the release. FTA gets the audit trail. Every signature bound to the user, the step, the timestamp, and the device.
Built for agencies with 50–500 buses, mixed diesel/EV fleets, and 3–15 shop mechanics.
If that's you, we already speak your language — CalACT, APTA, FTA Section 5307/5311, ATU shop-floor sensitivities, CARB ZEB compliance, and the reality that half your bays don't get Wi-Fi. No AR-vendor gauntlet, no six-figure minimum, no six-month deployment.

15 minutes at the booth. Bring your worst-kept PM checklist and we'll show you what it looks like as an ODIIS guide on the iPad. No slideware.
