- Fares are set once in the back office and reach every cab instantly, including vehicles already on the road.
- Orders from multiple ride-hailing platforms land on one in-vehicle terminal, so drivers stop juggling phones.
- Every trip carries a video and GPS record that matches the order file — disputes lose their guesswork.
- Settlement runs on meter, order, and tariff data, so payouts are calculated, not argued about.
Taxi and Ride-Hailing Fleet Management
Control fares, prove every trip, protect every driver — fleet management that pays for itself.
What changes when you deploy
Scenarios on this page
A taxi fleet is a revenue business that runs on trust: trust that the meter is honest, that the driver on shift is the driver on file, and that every trip can be accounted for. SOHANIoT replaces that trust-with-hope with trust-with-data. Certified in-vehicle hardware, edge AI, and the SOHANIoT Cloud Platform give a taxi company the same operational grip a modern logistics firm takes for granted.
This is a full-stack chain from the manufacturer that builds the hardware. Terminals, cameras, trackers, and the platform are engineered, assembled, and tested in our own facility — which is why the fare engine, the compliance records, and the safety alerts all come from one accountable supplier.
Driver management
Know who is driving, how they drive, and what they earn — every single shift.
Taxi revenue leaks in three quiet places: unauthorized sub-drivers, uneven driving standards, and settlement errors nobody notices until the month-end review. Driver management closes each one with identity, data, and automation.
Face-verified identity at shift start
The driver confirms identity with a face check on the in-vehicle terminal before the shift opens. The system matches the person against the approved driver file, so unregistered substitutes cannot take a cab out under someone else's name. Every trip in the shift is then tied to a verified driver record. .
Risk profiling from behavior, not reputation
Driving history accumulates into a risk profile per driver: hard events, speeding, fatigue alerts, complaint records. Managers see a ranked list, not a pile of spreadsheets, so intervention effort goes to the drivers who need it first. Profiles update continuously and follow the driver across shifts and vehicles.
Driver KPIs the whole fleet can read
Each driver gets scores across the metrics that matter to a taxi business: safety events, order acceptance, revenue per shift, idle time, and passenger complaints. Fleet-wide views show the spread, and shift-level detail shows what actually happened. SOHAN CoPilot turns the same data into individual coaching notes for follow-up conversations. .
Automated revenue settlement
At shift close, the system reconciles the meter record, the order feed, and the tariff that was active — and calculates the payout. Manual spreadsheet settlement disappears, along with its arithmetic errors and its month-end arguments. Payouts are auditable line by line, and exports feed directly into payroll or bank files. .
Flexible tariffs
Fares are a policy decision. Update them everywhere at once.
Tariffs are political, commercial, and emotional — and when they change, every meter in the fleet has to change with them. The SOHANIoT fare engine makes the whole fleet obey one policy, pushed from one screen.
Central fare updates over the air
The back office edits fare rules once, and the change reaches every in-vehicle terminal over the cellular network — including cabs already out on the street. No USB sticks, no shop visits, no vans that ran all day on yesterday's price. Terminals that were offline receive the update automatically when they reconnect. .
Multi-rule stacking without missed charges
Discounts, fixed fares, surcharges, and distance rules can apply to the same trip and stack automatically in the correct order. A promotional discount for one passenger group does not cancel a late-night surcharge for everyone else. The engine applies the combination once, per trip, and shows the passenger a fare that matches the published policy. .
Scheduled activation at a uniform time
Fare plans can be prepared in advance and activated at a chosen moment across the whole fleet — a new year, a new regulation, a new city rate. Because activation is simultaneous, no driver is still charging the old rate while the cab next to them charges the new one.
Fare-config anomaly checks
Before a shift starts, the system validates each vehicle's fare configuration against the active policy. A terminal running stale rules, a meter with a mismatched profile, or a config that drifted after maintenance is flagged before it can generate a dispute. The check is cheap, automatic, and it protects both revenue and passenger trust. .
Smart dispatch
More orders per shift — from every platform, on one screen.
Drivers lose earning time switching between ride-hailing apps, and fleet owners lose oversight as work scatters across platforms. SOHANIoT brings the orders to one place and gives the fleet a view of the whole market, not just one app.
Third-party order aggregation in the vehicle
The in-vehicle terminal integrates orders from partner ride-hailing platforms and presents them on one screen. The driver accepts, navigates, and completes without juggling multiple phones or tablets. Gaps between platform orders shrink because the driver can see the next opportunity instead of guessing. .
Multi-platform integration with commission share
For fleets that contract with several platforms, the system centralizes order flow and tracks the commission arrangement per platform. The operator sees, per vehicle and per period, which platform generated which revenue and what share is owed — a clean basis for settlement with each partner. .
Charging scheduling for electric taxi fleets
Electric cabs need charging windows that do not collide with peak earning hours. The system helps drivers schedule charging around shift patterns, demand peaks, and tariff periods — and can suggest the charge that gets them back on the road when the orders are. Fleet managers see charging activity per vehicle, so downtime is planned, not discovered. . See the EV Fleet Solution for the full electric-fleet toolkit.
Data-assisted dispatch
Using live position, shift history, and vehicle type, the system suggests the next best pickup — the order that is close, winnable, and suited to the car on the road. Dispatchers stay in control; the suggestion is guidance, not autonomy. The outcome is a fleet that spends less time empty and more time earning.
Trip and fare compliance
Every trip has a record. The record has proof.
Regulators, passengers, and insurers all ask the same question: what actually happened on that trip? SOHANIoT answers with video, GPS, and the order file — matched automatically.
AI video verification of the trip
An AI camera records the trip window — pick-up, journey, drop-off — with timestamps aligned to the vehicle's GPS track. The SOHANIoT Cloud Platform compares the video timeline against the order record, so the operator can see, per trip, what the system logged and what the camera saw.
Flagging of off-meter and non-compliant trips
When a trip appears in the video but not in the order file — or a fare was collected off-meter, or the route diverged without cause — the system flags it for review. Patterns surface too: a driver whose flagged trips cluster at certain hours or locations becomes visible, not anonymous. .
Evidence packs that settle disputes fast
Each flagged event exports as an evidence pack: video clip, snapshots, GPS track, fare record, and a timeline. Operators use the pack to respond to passenger complaints, regulator inquiries, or insurance claims without assembling footage by hand. A defensible record beats a good argument every time.
Compliance recording that respects privacy
Trip video is used for the compliance purpose it was collected for — not casual surveillance. Retention windows, access rights, and redaction rules are configurable to match local transport and privacy regulation. .
Driving safety
A ride is only as good as its last safe kilometer.
Taxi drivers spend more hours behind the wheel than almost any profession, often at night, often alone. Safety systems here are not a checkbox — they are the difference between a lost vehicle and a recovered one.
One-touch emergency alert and trip sharing
A panic button on the terminal raises an immediate alert to the fleet desk with live position and video context. Drivers can also share trip status with a trusted contact, so a night-shift cab's route is visible to someone who cares about the driver getting home. .
ADAS and DMS coverage on every shift
The SOHANIoT ADAS-DMS Camera watches the road ahead and the driver in parallel: forward-collision risk, following distance, fatigue, and distraction each trigger their own in-cab alert. The camera is built for the long hours and rough roads of taxi duty, and it works around the clock. .
Intervention that reaches the vehicle
When in-cab alerts are ignored, the event escalates to the fleet desk with live video and GPS. The desk can speak to the driver, and — where the operator configures it — guide the vehicle to a safe stop or alert authorities with the vehicle's position and footage. Intervention is recorded, so every action and its trigger are reviewable afterward.
Post-event review and coaching with SOHAN CoPilot
Every safety event feeds a driver's history and a fleet-level pattern report: which routes, hours, and behaviors produce the most risk. SOHAN CoPilot turns that into targeted coaching, and managers can verify improvement in the next shift's data — not in a quarterly meeting. .
Passenger service
Small frictions lose repeat riders. Remove them.
The meter, the payment, and the receipt are the passenger's whole experience of your operation. SOHANIoT makes each step fast and each step digital — without making the driver a cashier, a bookkeeper, or a tech-support line.
Multiple payment methods in the vehicle
The terminal accepts the payment methods riders expect — cards, QR wallets, and ride-platform balances — through integrations that the operator configures. Cash stays an option; reconciliation does not. Every payment type lands in the same settlement record, so the driver's payout and the operator's books stay consistent. .
Electronic receipts on the spot
Receipts go out by email or SMS the moment the trip closes. Passengers stop waiting at the window for paper; drivers stop carrying receipt books; and the operator gains a clean digital record of every fare collected. Business riders especially notice the difference at expense time.
Corporate accounts for business travel
Fleets can offer corporate clients centralized billing: approved riders, consolidated monthly invoices, and travel-policy controls instead of a pile of personal receipts. It turns an existing taxi fleet into a preferred vendor for local businesses — a revenue channel that runs on the settlement engine already in place. .
In-vehicle passenger display
A passenger-facing screen shows the driver's verified identity, the vehicle and license details, trip progress, and the fare — the information riders want before they relax into the seat. For operators in regulated markets, it doubles as the required passenger-information display, with branding that keeps the fleet's name in front of the rider. .
From pilot to fleet-wide
A taxi rollout does not need to be a big-bang project.
- Survey the fleet and agree the priority: settlement accuracy, compliance, safety, or passenger service.
- Pilot on a -vehicle group first, with live tariff and settlement configuration.
- Train drivers on the terminal and the safety features before the pilot week starts.
- Review pilot data together: flagged trips, settlement differences, alert volumes.
- Roll out fleet-wide, then tune alert thresholds and coaching targets from real usage.
SOHANIoT engineers support the pilot and the rollout directly — the factory is one call away, not one continent away. .
