Digital Pre-Start Inspections That Actually Work
Eliminate paper logbooks, prove compliance instantly, and catch issues before they become problems. QR code scan-and-go technology for your entire fleet.
Paper Pre-Start Books Are a Compliance Nightmare
You know the drill. Missing pages. Illegible handwriting. "Tick and flick" without actually checking anything. And when the auditor shows up, you're scrambling to prove your drivers did the inspections.
- Lost or damaged logbooks with no backup
- No way to verify checks were actually performed
- Faults reported but never addressed
- Hours wasted chasing down paper records
- Risk of CoR breaches and penalties
The Protekt Pre-Start App Solves This
Your drivers scan a QR code, tap through a checklist on their phone, and you have instant digital records that actually stand up to an audit.
- Complete digital audit trail with timestamps
- Photo evidence for any reported faults
- Instant alerts when issues are flagged
- Reports that prove compliance happened
- Works offline in areas with poor signal
How It Works
Three simple steps to complete compliance
Scan QR Code
Driver scans the vehicle's unique QR sticker. No login required - just scan and go.
Complete Checklist
Tap through vehicle-specific questions. Add photos for any faults found.
Instant Record
Timestamped digital record created. Management alerted to any faults requiring review.
Built for Australian Fleet Compliance
Every feature designed to make pre-starts simple and auditor-proof
QR Code Scan-and-Go
Unique QR sticker per vehicle. Drivers scan to start - no app login needed.
Custom Checklists
Different questions for different vehicle types - trucks, utes, forklifts, machinery.
Photo Evidence
Drivers snap photos of any issues. Timestamped and geotagged automatically.
Instant Fault Alerts
When a fault is reported, the right people are notified immediately.
Complete Audit Trail
Every inspection logged with who, what, when, and where. Always audit-ready.
Completion Reports
Track who's doing pre-starts, who isn't, and how issues are being resolved.
Chain of Responsibility Compliance
Under CoR legislation, everyone in the transport supply chain shares responsibility for safety. Pre-start inspections are your first line of defence.
Paper records might show a tick in a box, but they can't prove the inspection actually happened. Digital pre-starts with timestamps, photos, and automatic fault escalation demonstrate genuine due diligence.
When auditors or investigators come asking, you'll have complete, tamper-proof records showing exactly what was checked, by whom, and when.
Simple, Transparent Pricing
Use pre-starts standalone, add to GPS tracking, or get it included with Pro Fleet
