HAULR: An Open-Source AI Copilot for Smarter Truck Trip Planning & ELD Logs 🚛

Description and use

HAULR is a web‑based AI assistant that streamlines truck trip planning, HOS compliance, and ELD log generation, reducing manual effort and improving driver focus.

Problem

Truck drivers must manage routes, Hours of Service (HOS) regulations, rest breaks, and Electronic Logging Device (ELD) records, making trip planning time‑consuming and stressful.

Outcome

HAULR streamlines trip planning for truck drivers by automating route organization, HOS compliance, and ELD log generation, aiming to reduce screen time and improve focus on driving.

Workflow

• 1. Driver inputs trip details into the web interface.
• 2. Backend (Python/Django) processes input and invokes AI workflow for route and schedule planning.
• 3. AI generates suggested driving periods, rest breaks, and HOS compliance checks.
• 4. System produces structured ELD log data for the trip.
• 5. Driver reviews and confirms the plan before departure.

Evidence

Truck drivers often have to manage routes, Hours of Service (HOS) regulations, rest breaks, and Electronic Logging Device (ELD) records.
