Fueling Performance | Fleet Fuel Optimization Software
Optimize Fuel Purchases. Improve Fuel Efficiency. Lower Fuel Cost Per Mile.
Fueling Performance is a fleet fuel optimization platform that helps fleets optimize every fuel purchase, monitor every gallon, and improve driver fuel efficiency.
The Control Center: fuel overage, net fuel price, efficiency and cost per mile, by vehicle, driver or fleet.

AI agents on your team
Hire a Fuel Analyst, a Driver Coach or Feed Watch, scope it to the whole fleet, one fleet, a tag or a single driver, and let it watch your fuel data around the clock. Every suggestion arrives with a confidence %, the evidence it read and a “Before you act” list, and nothing acts on its own until you move it up the ladder.
- Fuel AnalystKeeps your fuel record straight: finds dead gauges and quiet trucks, puts transactions on the right vehicle, fixes the mappings behind repeat mistakes, reconciles gallons bought against gallons burned, and tells the fuel buyer where the network has holes.
- Driver CoachCoaches drivers on how they drive, buy and follow their plans — one specific, askable note at a time, drafted for you to send.
- Feed WatchTells you when a feed stops delivering, before the reports quietly go stale.

New · Automatic route optimization
Routes that plan themselves
Routes arrive automatically from dispatch. When the truck reaches its first stop, Fueling Performance builds the fuel plan and sends it to the driver on the channel they already use.
Step 1: Loads become routes
Samsara and Motive routes, Alvys and DataTruck loads polled every five minutes, or any TMS pushing to the public API. Dispatchers can still create a route by hand.
Step 2: The fuel plan builds itself
When the truck reaches its first stop: which stations, how many gallons, at what negotiated price, from the vehicle’s live tank level, capacity and MPG, with alternative routes scored.
Step 3: The driver gets it where they already are
The ELD tablet message, Telegram on their phone, or SMS. Drivers also get their own phone page: fetch from truck, one tap to optimize.
Step 4: Compliance scored after the trip
Stop compliance, PPG vs plan, out-of-route miles and their cost, by fleet and by driver, worst offenders first.
The Fuel Performance Loop
A continuous loop built to improve fleet performance.
Connect operational data, identify opportunities, coach drivers, and improve fleet performance over time.

Testimonials
Savings from real fleet operations
From fuel optimization to MPG improvement, fleets use Fueling Performance to uncover operational opportunities worth millions annually.
Before Fueling Performance, we knew what we spent but not why. Now we control where, when, and how fuel is purchased. The savings showed up within weeks.
We uncovered fuel losses we didn’t even know existed. The ability to verify every transaction changed how we manage our entire operation.
Our drivers are more aware, more engaged, and more efficient. Fueling Performance didn’t just give us data. It changed behavior.
Savings calculator
What a 200-truck fleet takes out of fuel cost per mile
At our conservative defaults (200 tractors, $4.50 a gallon, 120,000 miles a truck, 7.0 MPG) the calculator lands here. Change any assumption and every number moves with it.
Each lever is calculated independently against the baseline, so the total is an upper estimate where they overlap. An illustration built from the inputs, not a quote or a guarantee.

How does Fueling Performance actually lower our fuel cost per mile?
It works on two fronts. On consumption, we flag vehicles with declining MPG and coach drivers on idle, cruise control, and high torque. On cost, we help you buy fuel at better prices and catch theft before it eats into your margin. This is usually the number one expense after drivers and wages, so a few cents per mile adds up fast.
What telematics providers does this work with?
Telematics and ELD: Samsara, Motive, Geotab, ISAAC and Catena Telematics today. Fuel cards: Comdata, WEX/EFS, QuikQ and Relay Payments. Daily station pricing from Love's and Pilot Flying J. Dispatch routes from Alvys and DataTruck, or from any TMS through the Fueling Performance API.
What can we actually see in the Control Center?
Everything in one place: fuel spend, miles driven, fuel cost per mile, MPG, idle, high torque, cruise control usage. You can break it down by driver, vehicle, or terminal, and compare across terminals, regions, or divisions. If your fleet average is 73 cents fuel cost per mile, you'll see which vehicles are in the low 50s and which are up in the low 80s, so you know where to look.
What's the Fuel Optimizer and how is it different from just picking the cheapest station?
The optimizer looks at your whole route, not just the next exit. You give it a vehicle and destination, and it overlays your negotiated pricing along the route to pick the best fueling locations. Since we know the planned route and mileage, we can also measure compliance, whether the driver actually fueled where we told them to.
How does the optimizer decide when to buy fuel?
We monitor fuel price trends and help drivers make smarter fueling decisions based on expected market movements and your negotiated pricing. When there’s an opportunity to buy more strategically, drivers can receive guidance directly so they know when and where to fuel.
How do you catch fuel that's being stolen or misused?
We compare fuel purchasing activity with vehicle consumption and telematics data to identify unusual discrepancies. Those flags help teams investigate potential misuse, fueling anomalies, or recurring patterns before they become a larger problem.
What kind of savings have fleets actually seen?
Fleets have seen meaningful savings by shifting fuel purchases toward better-priced locations instead of fueling wherever is most convenient. Even within the same region, price differences between locations can be significant, creating a real opportunity to lower fuel cost per mile.
What does driver coaching actually look like?
An AI driver coach sends personalized engagement campaigns based on each driver’s efficiency metrics, from simple scorecards to AI-generated feedback. Campaigns are configurable, allowing fleets to focus coaching on the behaviors and opportunities that matter most to them.
What's the compliance score measuring?
Two things: fulfillment, whether the driver loaded the recommended amount of fuel, and discipline, whether they stopped at the recommended location. The overall score combines both to give you a clear view of fueling compliance.
Can we control who sees what in the platform?
Yes, permissions are flexible. We can hide entire columns or pages depending on the user. Negotiated discounts, for example, are typically only visible to authorized users, not terminal leaders or drivers.
What's on the roadmap?
We’re continuing to expand proactive alerts, optimization capabilities, driver coaching, and AI-powered insights across the platform. The goal is to help teams identify opportunities faster and take action with less manual analysis.
