Fleet Visibility for Owner-Operators

Same-day tractor and trailer visibility for 1–20 truck fleets — affordable GPS and video that complements your ELD without enterprise contracts.

Small haulers and owner-operators need the same visibility large carriers have — but not the same price tag, contract length, or certified-ELD replacement pitch. You already have hours-of-service covered. What you need is knowing where assets are and what happened on the road.

The challenge

Enterprise minimums

many telematics vendors price out fleets under 50 trucks

ELD overlap

you do not need a second logbook; you need GPS and trailer visibility

Trailer blind spots

tractor ELDs do not track unhooked trailers in the yard

Unpredictable monthly costs

hidden fees and long contracts strain tight margins

Who this is for

Owner-operators

running 1–3 tractors who want live maps without a fleet manager

Small regional carriers

growing from a few trucks to a dozen without re-platforming

Mixed tractor-trailer operators

who hook and drop trailers daily

Safety-minded owners

adding optional dashcam video when insurance or customers ask

What you gain

Affordable entry

start with one tractor on ValenTrack, add devices as revenue grows

Trailer visibility

ValenSolar covers assets your tractor ELD cannot see

Optional video

ValenCam when you want road evidence

Simple install

OBD and magnet mounts, not days in the shop

Room to grow

same ValenInsights platform when you add trailers, sensors, or cameras

Real-world use cases

First GPS on a single tractor

live map and history for dispatch and customer ETAs

Drop-and-hook operations

know which trailer is in which yard before the next assignment

Insurance or shipper requests

add outward dashcam video without replacing your ELD

Scaling up

add two trailers this quarter, five more next season, on one dashboard

How Valentir helps
