Telematics hardware we trust and install

TappiTrack works with a range of the most trusted telematics hardware: GPS trackers, AI dashcams, fuel and fleet sensors, push-to-talk radios and GPS e-locks, all installed by our technicians and connected to one platform.

A range of the most trusted telematics hardware

We don't tie our customers to a single device. TappiTrack uses hardware from established telematics manufacturers, each chosen for what it does best: accurate GPS trackers, dependable fuel sensors, AI video systems and secure e-locks.

That means a matatu SACCO, a long-haul transporter, a contractor and a car hire company each get devices suited to their vehicles, routes and budget, with one TappiTrack account to manage them all.
