Why Depot?
Managing a bus yard demands precision, control and reliability – challenges generic tools often fail to meet. Depot goes beyond basic alerts to deliver detailed reports on energy consumption, cost trends, and charger use. It combines real-time diagnostics from Capte's WeCapte v6x hardware with live yard activity to provide actionable, context-aware visibility that keeps fleet managers informed, maintenance teams responsive, and vehicles on schedule.
See everything at once. Depot unifies vehicle status, charger health and parking activity into a single, intuitive interface, so you know which buses are charging, active, and which vehicles are ready to depart.
Start, stop and schedule charging sessions from anywhere. Depot lets you perform diagnostics and manage energy use remotely, saving time and reducing strain on yard staff. Monitor charger status, faults, energy use, availability, vehicle readiness, battery health, departure timing, and yard flow.
Track vehicle locations with precision, whether they're parked inside the depot or staged outdoors. Depot integrates Ultra-Wideband indoor tracking with GPS-enabled WeCapte v6x hardware for pinpoint accuracy down to the parking spot. Works seamlessly indoors and outdoors, even in GPS-limited environments.
