Sand haulers in the Permian Basin experience wildly inconsistent pay due to unpredictable and lengthy delays at sand plants and well sites, despite working long hours.

There is no current mechanism to compensate drivers for significant waiting times, leading to financial instability despite adherence to company load targets and extensive work hours.

App Concept

IdlePay Pro: Fair Haul Compensation

IdlePay Pro is a mobile application designed to accurately track and log non-driving waiting times for sand haulers at plant and well sites. It provides irrefutable data to advocate for fair compensation, improving driver income stability and satisfaction in the unpredictable Permian oilfield.

Key Features

GPS-based idle time tracking with geofencing for specific sites
One-tap 'Wait Start/End' logging for manual override and verification
Automated reporting for management submission and payroll integration
Real-time alerts for excessive wait times or plant/well status updates
Personalized earnings dashboard showing driving vs. idle compensation impact

Target Users: Company drivers and owner-operators in the oilfield services trucking industry, specifically sand haulers in regions like the Permian Basin, working for small to medium-sized logistics companies.

Revenue Model: $19/mo per user SaaS subscription for drivers, with a premium 'Company Plan' for fleet managers at $99/mo that includes aggregate reporting and payroll integration.
