Fred Book drives Bus 23 on Route 300.103 for Sangamon Valley school district in Illinois.
After years of using clunky, expensive tracking systems, Fred decided to build something better. BusPi is designed by someone who drives buses daily and understands exactly what drivers, dispatchers, and parents need.
Why BusPi exists: Schools shouldn't pay $24,000/year for basic GPS tracking. Districts should own their data. Drivers deserve modern, easy-to-use tools.
"This is my legacy project. If I can help even one small rural school save $20k/year on bus tracking, this will have been worth it."
