Built by a BC who sits in the chair every night — not a founder who Googled "FedEx Ground." Routes, FRO, manifests, schedules, drivers, training, HR, and payroll. Every system you're running manually, running itself. Shift Brain watches everything, acts before problems become problems, and checks with you before anything consequential happens. You always have the final say.
Founding contracts lock in at $999/month — forever, while seats last. No credit card required.
Hey Shift
Wake Shift once. Then just talk. Ten seconds of silence and it stands down. Until then, it's with you — from the Shift bar on any screen.
Bidirectional Voice
Voice in, voice out — always. Shift responds aloud. Text appears alongside for reference, but when you ask a question, you hear the answer. Natural pacing and tone, not robotic TTS. Calm in a report. Direct in an alert.
Wake Shift once. Then just talk. It stays active for ten seconds of silence, then stands down until you need it again. Will — the same voice — greets every new user, walks the setup, and fills the forms from conversation.
Hey Shift — On the Road
Check progress, hear how the night went, confirm the manifests landed, update the board — all by voice, without touching your phone. Shift responds out loud. You keep moving.
“Hey Shift, give me the rundown of stops by WA”
WA 0428 — Marcus: 134 of 187 complete, 12 minutes ahead. WA 2212 — Jennifer: 98 of 162, on pace. WA 0771 — DeShawn: 71 of 143, 18 minutes behind — three TDD commits in his next six stops.
“How did last night's run go?”
Spin 2 landed at 9:41. 18 routes, 847 stops, every work area inside its cap. One note: WA 2212 took the bulk shelf at 61 cube. The report's in your inbox — want me to read the exceptions?
“Did the manifests land?”
All 18 work areas pulled at 8:00 and loaded to the driver app — texted you at 8:04. The 401 sweep moved six pickups onto 0777 and 0778 by geography. Nothing's waiting on you.
“Put Marcus off next Thursday and Friday”
Done — Marcus is off Thursday and Friday and it's on the board. Both days drop to 17 routes; the optimizer has the new count. Want me to let him know?
Every command works by voice — no screen, no typing, no stopping. Shift speaks back in your ear and logs every action automatically.
The shift
Every tool you use today tells you what happened. GSA tells you what's about to happen — and handles it before you have to. That's the Shift. Here's what it replaces.
8:30 PM. FRO is open. Anchor areas, stop thresholds, dynamic distribution — all by hand. Spin the plan. Something's off. Fix it. Spin again. This is your night. Every single night.
FedEx Route Sync delivers your manifest. That's it — raw data. Somebody still downloads it, splits it by work area and gets it to the drivers. GSA pulls the FCC manifests per WA at 8 AM, loads them to the driver app and texts you when routes land.
Your SPH metric includes terminal drive time. Your routing tool calls that accuracy. Your best BC knows it isn't. You're making decisions every day on a number that's been wrong from the start.
You assign drivers to routes based on availability and gut feel. Marcus runs apartments 31% faster than fleet average. You don't know that. Someone else owns his zone today.
You balance routes by stop count — not service time. A 200-stop residential route and a 200-stop commercial route are not the same day. You know this by 11 AM when the calls start.
You open a spreadsheet and build payroll from scratch — per-stop, hourly, who covered what. One missed shift and somebody's check is wrong. GSA computes it from the schedule and the routes that actually ran, and flags the anomalies.
Is tomorrow's schedule final? You're the only one who knows — and the plan can't build until you've checked. GSA texts you at 8:15: 'Is the schedule ready? Reply YES.' It builds at 8:30, and texts you if anything fails.
Safety training lives in Google Drive. Enrollment is a text. Completion is someone's word. None of it connects to anything — and FedEx compliance doesn't care about your folder.
A driver gets a warning. You open a blank doc, try to remember policy, write something up, hope it holds legally. It's not connected to their VEDR record, training history, or next disciplinary step. GSA drafts it for you, attaches it to their timeline, and flags the pattern.
A hard brake event lands. Rate severity. Decide on coaching. Document it. Track KI score impact. Schedule the session. Log completion. None of this talks to each other. Log the event in GSA once — it triages, recommends the coaching step, tracks KI, and surfaces the ones that need your attention.
A truck goes down. You make calls. Someone opens a work order somewhere. The repair history, odometer, and cost are in three different places. GSA tracks every vehicle, every work order, and every dollar — and tells you what's coming before it fails.
Every tool in this industry tells you what happened. Shift Brain tells you what's about to happen — and handles it before you have to. Schedule not confirmed at 8:15? You get a text before the build. Volume running 12% heavier than yesterday's plan? Anchor areas adjusted, reason explained, report in your inbox. A run fails? You know by text, not at 6 AM. This is what proactive looks like. The industry has never seen it.
Shift Brain knows your work areas, your driver board, every driver's performance history, every stop's delivery record, your training records, and your pay rules. It uses all of it — continuously, not just at 8:30 PM — and checks with you before anything consequential happens.
When Shift disagrees with a decision, it says so — once, clearly, in voice — then executes whatever you choose. Not a black box. Not autonomous software. A thinking partner that runs your operation and never loses your place, your context, or your trust.
Full Platform
No add-ons. No payroll add-on. No Sunday spreadsheets. $1,500/contract/month — unlimited routes, every feature included.
Tell GSA your dummy WA, email, and hard rules once. Every night at 8:30 PM, Shift Brain reads tomorrow's volume, sets anchor areas and stop thresholds by work area, and the plan is built, balanced and emailed to you before the window closes. If a run fails, you get a text. You wake up to a plan that's better than anything built manually — without touching FRO.
Real-time route board with live driver positions on map, color-coded by staleness. Pace monitoring flags at-risk routes before they become problems. Transfer stops, reassign drivers, and close routes — by voice or tap. Every action logged in the dispatch record.
At 8:00 and 9:00 AM CT, GSA pulls the FCC delivery and pickup manifests for every work area and loads them straight into the driver app. You get a text when routes land. Have a DeliveryManifest.xls instead? Drop it in per WA and it loads the same way. The 401 pickup sweep runs at 7:30 and 9:00, moving pickups onto the right route by geography before the trucks roll.
Build the week's driver board once. The rotation Gantt shows who runs what and when; route counts flow straight to the nightly optimizer, so the plan is built for the drivers you actually have. Time-off requests drop into the schedule automatically. At 8:15 PM Shift texts you to confirm tomorrow is set — reply YES and the build starts.
Every driver's SPH tracked by zone type over time. Marcus runs the apartment corridor 31% faster than fleet average? He owns it. Shift Brain assigns accordingly. And every edit you make to the plan is read at 10:00 the next morning and carried into the next build — it learns from your corrections every day.
Log a hard brake, harsh acceleration, or following-distance event once. Shift triages it, rates severity, and recommends the right action — verbal coaching, written warning, additional training, or no action. KI scores tracked per driver over time. Coaching sessions documented and tied to training records. DOT-ready.
Driver HR timeline: every hire, warning, suspension, and note — searchable, dated, and connected to their VEDR record and training history. Describe an incident in voice and Shift drafts the write-up. Onboarding checklists auto-populated and tracked by driver. Time off flows straight into the schedule. Document expiry — licenses, med cards, insurance — alerts you before the deadline. Patterns flagged before they become terminations.
Vehicle inventory with full document tracking — registration, insurance, DOT inspection, state inspection, emissions. Work orders created, prioritized, and tracked through completion with vendor and cost attached. Fleet health dashboard shows what's down, what's urgent, and what's due. Nothing slips through.
GSA hosts a comprehensive P&D training curriculum — every module consolidated, not scattered across Google Drive. Enroll drivers, track completion, and ask Shift for a handout, a quiz, or a one-page refresher on any module. It generates supporting content on demand, in your words, tied to the driver's training record.
Payroll built in — per-stop, hourly, or hybrid pay — computed from the schedule and the routes that actually ran. Anomalies flagged before the check goes out: a shift that doesn't match the board, a route count that jumped, a rate that changed. Live estimated earnings per route, updated as stops complete.
7-day, 30-day, and 90-day trend views across stop volume, driver productivity, route performance, and gross margin. Driver rankings surface your top performers and your at-risk ones. AI-powered analysis explains what the numbers mean and proposes three specific actions to improve them. Your Monday morning meeting, pre-built.
"Hey Shift, enroll Marcus and DeShawn in backing safety and pull up the module." Done. The Shift bar sits at the top of every screen. Ask in voice or type; Shift answers in voice and puts the result on your canvas — a report, a board, a window — without leaving where you are. Will greets every new user the same way and fills the setup forms from conversation.
The morning manifest is already loaded when the driver logs in. Stop history, gate codes and entry notes surface before they arrive. Voice-first exception handling — driver speaks the ILS code, Shift confirms it aloud and logs it. PIN-based login, GPS breadcrumb tracking, manual reorder mode when the driver knows better. Direct messaging with the terminal. Pace companion that says 'running smooth,' not a countdown that adds stress.
24 Hours of Automation
Shift texts you: 'Is the schedule ready? Reply YES.' Tomorrow's driver board sets the route counts the optimizer builds to.
Shift Brain reads tomorrow's volume in DRO, sets anchor areas and stop thresholds by work area, and balances the plan. If anything fails, you get a text.
Built, balanced and emailed to you before the window closes — what was built, why, and the pins it honored. Nothing to open.
FCC delivery and pickup manifests pulled per work area at 8:00 and 9:00 and loaded to the driver app. You get a text when routes land.
Every edit you made to last night's plan is read and carried into the next build. Shift learns from your corrections every day.
Pace monitoring, exception logging, driver messaging. Ask Shift anything from the Shift bar — it responds in voice without losing your place.
Shift checks before anything consequential — writing to FRO, sending messages, changing routes mid-day. When Shift disagrees with your call, it tells you once — in voice — and executes your choice. You steer. Shift runs. You always have the final say.

Simple, honest pricing
One price. No per-route fees. No per-driver fees. No add-ons. One flat price per FedEx contract — a single number that never changes, whatever FedEx assigns you at peak.
Founding contracts lock in at $999/month — for life. When the founding seats are gone, the price moves to $1,500/month. This isn't a promotional gimmick. It's how we reward the people who believe first.
