LineTracker
An integration platform that connected a fragmented landscape of third-party truck-tracking providers into the Linebooker ecosystem — and gave operations a single, trustworthy view of every vehicle.
The problem
Carriers used different telemetry vendors. Customers wanted one view of every load. Operations were stitching together signals manually and losing trust in the data. The business needed a real-time, normalised view of every truck on every job — without forcing carriers to change their tools.
What we built
- Provider adapter pattern that hid each vendor's quirks behind a clean internal contract.
- Hybrid polling and streaming pipeline with dedup, late-event handling and back-pressure.
- Operational dashboards that surface stale data instead of hiding it.
- Onboarding workflows so adding a new provider became a 1-day adapter, not a 1-month project.
Real-world challenges
Third-party APIs change without notice. Vehicles go offline. Some providers report every 30 seconds, some every 5 minutes. We designed for partial truth from day one — a system that tells you what it knows and how fresh it is, instead of pretending everything is fine.
Outcomes
Operations gained a unified, trustworthy view of vehicle telemetry. Onboarding new providers became routine engineering instead of a project. The platform stopped being limited by integration capacity.
