ZenBus is a comprehensive software platform designed to streamline and optimize the operations of school bus and shuttle fleets. It leverages telematics and IoT to offer a range of features and tools that help improve safety, efficiency, resource allocation, and overall performance in transportation.

ZenBus (School) enhances the safety, efficiency, and reliability of student transportation through real-time bus location and NFC tracking.

Integration with Geotab
ZenBus taps into Geotab's powerful telematics data to track vehicles in real time. Additionally, when a passenger scans their NFC fob, this action is registered in the system and linked with the vehicle's current location, ensuring accurate attendance and tracking. The integration also allows the ZenBus mobile app to pull real-time data from Geotab GO Devices, offering users up-to-date information on vehicle location, ETA, and arrival times.
