RigBuddy

RigBuddy turns the daily pre-trip inspection into something drivers actually finish — and gives fleets a clean, DOT-ready DVIR for every truck.

Built for CDL drivers, owner-operators, and safety teams, RigBuddy walks you through a guided walkaround zone by zone, captures the photos that matter, and generates a compliant Driver Vehicle Inspection Report (DVIR) you can hand to any officer or auditor.

WHY DRIVERS LIKE IT • Guided, zone-by-zone pre-trip — cabin, front & hood, walkaround, coupling, trailer. • Tap OK, Defect, or Critical on each checkpoint. No paperwork. • Snap a photo right where it's needed; AI vision suggests likely defects, but you always make the final call. • Daily Quick Check for the safety-critical items when you're short on time. • Works fully offline — start, photograph, and submit with no signal. Everything syncs the moment you reconnect.

WHY FLEETS LIKE IT • Every inspection becomes a timestamped, photo-backed DVIR PDF. • Safety managers review, request more info, or approve — with a full audit trail. • Truck-centric history: drivers change, the truck's record stays. • Multi-tenant and role-based (driver, safety, admin) so each company sees only its own data.

DVIR COMPLIANCE RigBuddy is designed around 49 CFR §396.11 pre-trip requirements, covering the mandatory checkpoints and keeping your inspection reports on file.

Available in English and Spanish.
