Product updates and release notes for OptiMile Pro
v2026.08.06
August 6, 2026Latest
New features
Meet the Fleet Console, one page where your trucks and your people sit side by side, with invites, device matching, bulk actions, and in-place editing.
Every Fleet Console row carries one clear readiness verdict, Ready, or exactly what's missing, with named views and live counts to work through what needs attention.
Connect your dispatch system, Alvys, BeyondTrucks, McLeod, Trimble, or Truckbase, and your loads flow into OptiMile automatically, ready to optimize.
Match imported trucks and drivers to your fleet in the Entity Matching workspace, VIN, ELD device, plate, CDL, phone, and email match automatically, with search, bulk confirm, skip, and undo.
Run Samsara, Geotab, and Motive together, connect more than one telematics provider and import trucks and drivers from each.
Operate across the border: register a Canadian company, plan trips with Canadian addresses, see prices converted from Canadian dollars per litre, and get border markers on cross-border plans.
Save recurring lanes as Dedicated Routes and start a trip from a template, just add the load number and service date.
Fuel plans now use each driver's real-world MPG, measured from their telematics driving history and kept fresh automatically, instead of a company-wide default.
See what optimization is worth: a toggle on trip details compares your optimized plan with a "fill up when low" baseline, on both the itinerary and the map.
Prefer fewer stops? A new stop-reduction preference trades a little fuel savings for fewer fuel stops, set a company default or adjust per trip.
Control what dispatchers can do with new permission settings for managing trucks, drivers, and matching, applied consistently across the whole app.
Choose which email alerts your team receives, including when a fuel plan is held for review or fuel prices go stale, and retry failed order emails right from the activity feed.
Upload a driver or equipment roster from CSV or Excel: map the columns, watch progress, fix errored rows inline, and the records join matching automatically.
Loads that can't safely auto-text a driver are held and flagged with the reason, and you can send drivers a verification request in one click.
Open any fuel plan and see exactly which settings and inputs it was built with, so you can explain every recommendation.
Improvements
Creating a trip is faster and cleaner: verified single-field addresses, redesigned stop cards with drag-and-drop reordering, and a dedicated-route picker right on the form.
Paste a load confirmation and every parsed stop is address-checked immediately, with problems flagged at the exact stop, not at submit.
Stop times are always local wall-clock time with per-stop time zones, so the time you type is the time the driver keeps.
"Use current truck location" now works with every telematics provider, and a parked-but-reachable truck plans on its last known fuel level.
Fuel plans are sharper: real detour and elevation costs, smart partial fills at the cheapest stations, dependable long-route planning, and your minimum arrival fuel always honored.
Savings figures are a true like-for-like comparison you can stand behind, and plans that can't fully meet a target say so clearly.
Route-optimization settings are honored exactly as labeled, cost per mile, detour search radius, and MPG bounds.
All company settings now live in one tabbed Settings page, and the side navigation is regrouped into clear, labeled sections.
The Integrations page is now a real console: each provider has its own page and web address, live status counts you can trust, and noticeably faster loading.
Connecting a provider verifies credentials and every required permission up front, naming exactly what's missing, then shows live sync progress through to "connected".
When an integration hits a problem, you get a plain-English explanation and a next step rather than technical error text.
Integration health reporting is honest end to end: data freshness is labeled, credential trouble raises a clear reconnect prompt, and the activity log states exactly what each load still needs.
Importing vehicles and drivers is smoother: powered vehicles only, real names and last-activity info, live "Adding N of M" progress, and large fleets scroll and page cleanly.
Trip itineraries are easier to read on out-and-back runs, every stop shows its mile marker, and fuel stops are numbered on both the list and the map.
Truck GPS and fuel levels refresh in the background and are pulled fresh the moment you pick a truck or driver.
When an outside data service has an outage, OptiMile says so plainly, during signup, address entry, and carrier lookups, so you always know where you stand.
The Chrome extension names exactly which stop needs an address correction and why, and an updated extension is live in the Chrome Web Store.
Screens that fail to load now offer a retry instead of looking empty, and new accounts get a guided setup checklist.
Fleet Insights has new buyer's guides and comparison articles with freshness dates, and the public pricing pages reflect current per-truck pricing and trial terms.
The What's New page is open to everyone, no sign-in needed to read release notes.
The Fuel Price Heatmap header is more compact, giving the map more room.
The dashboard and other busy pages load noticeably faster.
Fixes
Made billing thoroughly dependable, starting your trial, adding a payment method, upgrading truck counts, grace periods, and status banners all behave exactly as expected.
Made the Chrome extension dependable end to end, authorizing it, keeping in-progress work, and creating exactly one trip and one driver text per action.
Made driver texting exact: one text per change, cancellation and correction updates included, with no repeats of messages already received.
Made load syncing steadier across every dispatch system, cancellations always apply, re-delivered loads come back, stops arrive in order, and emailed orders update the trip they belong to.
Made truck readings trustworthy: fuel and location always belong to the right truck, low tanks read low, and every reading carries its true freshness.
Made matching decisions durable, unmatches and skips stick, and only active, same-company people and vehicles are ever suggested.
Made ELD device swaps painless: a replaced or reconnected device re-links to its truck automatically.
Made dates keep your local time zone, pickup dates and appointment times read the same for you and the driver.
Made truck records more accurate: real tank capacity is captured up front and stays correctable, so every fuel plan starts from the truth.
Made team management dependable, member counts, email changes, and signing a user out everywhere all do exactly what they say.
Made list searches smooth, the page keeps your place and your cursor while you type.
Made saving company details forgiving, a save either succeeds or tells you why.
Made session timeouts graceful, you're brought straight to the sign-in page to pick up where you left off.
Made address checking more accepting of valid addresses, including Canadian street addresses and custom starting points.
Made the public website surer-footed, pages settle instantly and a mistyped address shows a friendly not-found page.
Smoothed dozens of smaller rough edges across trips, trucks, dialogs, notifications, and checkout.
