WoF, CoF & Operator Compliance from One Dashboard
Your drivers are on gravel roads across the South Island and your office is in Auckland. Digital inspections, defect alerts, and compliance tracking that works wherever your fleet goes. Free up to 3 vehicles.
Mekavo AI is explicitly forbidden from telling you to pressure your driver.
Most fleet AI products will recommend densifying your routes when a driver finishes early — even when the underlying reason is speeding. Some platforms sell that recommendation as their headline feature.
Mekavo's risk-aware AI is hard-coded to refuse it. When telemetry shows a speeding pattern, a fatigue alert, or aggressive driving, our system is structurally prevented from recommending more stops, route densification, or shift extensions — regardless of what the variance numbers superficially support.
What our AI will recommend instead:
- Coaching, when a speeding pattern emerges.
- Mandatory rest, when fatigue alerts fire.
- Re-timing the plan at the planning stage, when stops consistently finish too early.
- Recognising the driver, when a week is clean.
It will never pressure the driver, even when the manager wants it to. That's the positioning. We sell to operators who want a serious safety platform — not a way to extract more shifts.

Everything your fleet needs

Driver Management
Onboard drivers, assign utes and trucks, track who inspected what. Works for owner-operators running one truck-and-trailer or companies with 50+ units.

Built for the regulators NZ fleet operators actually deal with
A WorkSafe inspector after a vehicle incident, an NZTA Operator Rating Audit, a CoF inspection failure — they all want the same thing: a tamper-evident record of pre-trip checks, repairs, and driver actions. Mekavo seals each entry at the moment of capture.
Administers the Transport Operator Rating System, Certificate of Fitness regime, RUC (Road User Charges) for diesel vehicles, and roadside enforcement under the Land Transport Act 1998.
Periodic roadworthiness test for transport service vehicles (heavy + passenger service). Issued at NZTA-approved inspection centres; failures are public on the operator's rating record.
NZTA's rating of every commercial transport operator from 1 (lowest risk) to 5 (highest). Driven by COF outcomes, infringement history and audit findings. Insurers and brokers use TORS for premium calculation.
Workplace health and safety regulator. Vehicle-related incidents at work fall under the Health and Safety at Work Act 2015, with PCBU duties and personal liability for officers.
FBT on company vehicles, mileage logs for cents-per-km rate, fuel-card audit. Fleet records form part of the IRD audit trail.
Operators of transport service vehicles must ensure pre-trip checks are carried out and documented. NZTA Auditors review the procedure during Operator Rating Audits — gaps in the documented chain push the rating worse. Mekavo seals each pre-trip with photos, geolocation, mileage and driver identity at the moment of submission.
A pattern of CoF failures, roadside infringements or audit findings degrades your TORS rating. At rating 4 or 5, NZTA can require corrective action plans, suspend operations on specific vehicles, or revoke the Transport Service Licence. Insurance and finance availability narrow rapidly.
