Driver scheduling involves collecting availability, matching drivers to routes, and scrambling to cover last-minute call-outs. Doing this by hand across scattered messages and spreadsheets creates constant interruptions and increases the risk of uncovered shifts.
The automated version reads availability messages, matches drivers to open routes, and updates the master schedule without manual entry. When a driver cancels, it contacts qualified backups and confirms the replacement on the shared calendar.
The full workflow, from trigger to completion.
Driver texts their available hours.
Parses the message, checks it against the schedule, and matches the driver to an open route by zone and vehicle type.
Matched shift assignment is written directly into the master schedule tab.
If a genuine double-booking or availability mismatch is flagged, the coordinator reviews and resolves it manually.
Driver receives an automatic text confirming shift time, route, and vehicle.
Watches for call-out messages and automatically texts qualified backup drivers until one confirms.
Confirmed replacement is written to the shared shift calendar so the whole team sees the final coverage.
