Every solution, up close.
Every deployment starts with hardware chosen for the job, installed and calibrated by our own technicians, and connected to a platform your team will actually use.
Real-time location for everything that moves, and plenty that doesn't.
Advanced GNSS trackers report position, speed, ignition and trips for vehicles, trailers, generators and people. Fixed units for permanent installs, portable ones for assets that change hands.
GPS tracking in detail
See every liter that goes in, gets burned, or goes missing.
Calibrated fuel level sensors report tank levels continuously, so you get alerts and reports on every refuel, drain and change in consumption. Fuel theft stops being a month-end surprise.
Fuel management in detail
A second pair of eyes on the road and in the cab.
AI dashcams warn drivers about forward collisions and lane departures (ADAS) and detect fatigue, distraction and phone use (DMS). Events arrive with video, and you can stream any camera live.
Video AI in detail
Know who is driving, and stop the vehicle if you must.
Driver identification ties every trip to a person. Remote immobilization, a one-press SOS button and speed limiters protect drivers, vehicles and cargo.
Safety and security in detail
Engine data straight from the source.
Readings from the CAN bus and OBD port give you real fuel use, RPM, engine hours, fault codes and FMS data, so maintenance happens before the breakdown rather than after it.
CAN intelligence in detail
Insurance priced on how vehicles are actually driven.
Driving behavior, trip patterns and risk events become driver scores insurers can use for pay-as-you-drive and pay-how-you-drive policies. Careful drivers pay less.
Usage-based insurance in detail
Catch the slow puncture before it becomes a blowout.
Tire pressure and temperature monitoring alerts you to under-inflation, punctures and overheating in real time, and tracks rotation and tread so every tire lasts longer.
Tire intelligence in detail
Cargo that reports every stop and every opening.
Electronic locks, load sensors and tracking tags tell you when a container is opened, where, and by whom, and whether the load changed along the way.
Freight security in detail
Find people, documents and equipment indoors, too.
RFID, BLE and NFC tags identify and locate assets where GPS can't reach: in warehouses, yards, hospitals and offices, with real-time location and status.

A 45-second film about one truck, one alert, and why our clients stopped discovering fuel losses at month end.
Read the film as text
02:14. A truck on the Djibouti corridor has stopped near Mille. A breakdown, a rest stop, or 58 liters of diesel leaving the tank?
With Translink, you don't wonder. You know. The tracker reports the driver's ID card, the truck's position, engine data showing the ignition off since 01:50, and the fuel level falling while the vehicle is parked.
The platform raises an alert, "Fuel drain detected", for vehicle ET 3-000111 at Mille, Afar, at 02:14: minus 58 liters. The same alert reaches the fleet manager's phone. Caught at 02:14, not at month end.
Nine solutions: GPS tracking, fuel management, video AI (ADAS and DMS), safety and security, CAN intelligence, usage-based insurance, tire intelligence, freight security, and RFID and BLE IoT.

Questions fleet managers ask us first.
Anything else, call our sales team on +251 944 334 344.
What types of vehicles can you track?
Any motorized or non-motorized vehicle or asset, regardless of age: passenger cars, commercial fleets, heavy equipment, agricultural machinery, generators, trailers and non-powered assets.
We select and configure the hardware for each case, so tracking stays reliable on modern and older vehicles alike.
What does your fleet management system include?
It goes well beyond dots on a map:
- Real-time GPS tracking and trip history
- Fuel monitoring and fuel theft detection
- Driver behavior and eco-driving analysis
- AI dashcams with ADAS and DMS
- Speed monitoring, geofencing and real-time alerts
- CAN bus integration and vehicle diagnostics
- Preventive maintenance scheduling
- Reports, analytics and management dashboards on web and mobile
How secure is our fleet data?
Your data runs on secure cloud infrastructure with encrypted transmission and storage, role-based access controls, continuous monitoring and regular backups. Only users you authorize can see your fleet.
What happens if a vehicle loses signal?
The device keeps recording to its own memory and uploads everything once the connection returns, so no trip data is lost. You can also set an alert for vehicles that stay offline longer than you'd expect.
Do you support AI video telematics?
Yes. Our AI dashcams provide ADAS (forward collision and lane departure warnings) and DMS (fatigue, distraction and phone use detection), event-based recording, real-time alerts and incident playback. That means safer drivers and clear evidence when something happens.
Can it connect to our ERP and other systems?
Yes. We integrate through APIs with ERP, HR, fuel and logistics systems, as well as insurance and regulatory platforms, and export to PDF, Excel or API. For specialized requirements, our in-house developers build custom integrations.
Will it actually reduce our fuel costs?
Clients typically save through fuel theft detection, less idling and harsh driving, better routes, preventive maintenance and clearer driver accountability. The system usually pays for itself within months of deployment.
Tell us what you operate and where it travels.
We'll recommend the right hardware, explain what each sensor will tell you, and walk you through the platform live. No obligation, and a clear quote at the end.
