# Fleetio MCP

> Fleetio connects your AI agent directly to vehicle operations data. You manage entire fleets—tracking everything from fuel consumption and odometer readings to maintenance schedules and driver contact info—all through natural conversation. Use this MCP to automate fleet oversight, turning complex dashboard navigation into simple commands.

## Overview
- **Category:** erp-operations
- **Price:** Free
- **Tags:** vehicle-tracking, maintenance-scheduling, fuel-management, compliance-tracking, asset-management, telematics

## Description

You can use this MCP to run a full operational audit of your vehicles without ever logging into the web portal. Need to know which trucks are due for an oil change? Just ask. Want to record that Van 05 just hit 45,000 miles? Tell your agent. This connection centralizes everything from tracking work orders and listing all active assets to retrieving historical fuel logs. Because this MCP is hosted on Vinkius, you connect once through any compatible AI client and gain immediate access to the entire fleet management catalog. You can list every vehicle in your care using `list_vehicles`, fetch detailed profiles using `get_vehicle`, or even report a new problem with a single command that calls `create_issue`. This dramatically cuts down on time spent cross-referencing spreadsheets, letting you focus on driving operations forward.

## Capabilities

### Manage Asset Data
List all vehicles in your fleet and retrieve specific metadata like VINs and license plates.

### Track Maintenance Status
Monitor upcoming service reminders, list current work orders, or fetch the details of a reported issue.

### Record Usage Metrics
Add new odometer readings (`create_meter_entry`) or report unexpected vehicle issues directly from your conversation.

### Audit Fuel Consumption
Retrieve historical records of fuel entries to calculate costs and track usage across multiple vehicles.

### Lookup Contacts & Vendors
Access a directory listing contacts like drivers, managers, and external service providers for quick coordination.

## Use Cases

### Preparing for Quarterly Compliance Audits
A Fleet Manager needs to prove that all vehicles received their required annual checks. Instead of pulling 20 different reports, the agent runs `list_service_reminders` and compiles a single list showing which assets are compliant and which need immediate attention.

### Handling an Unexpected Vehicle Breakdown
An Operations Supervisor gets a report of an issue. They use `get_issue` to see the details, then immediately call `list_vendors` to get contact info for certified mechanics, and finally record a new work order using `create_issue`.

### Calculating Total Quarterly Fuel Costs
A Logistics Coordinator needs the cost breakdown for the last three months. They simply ask their agent to pull all records via `list_fuel_entries`, getting a total consumption figure without touching any spreadsheets.

### Onboarding New Assets
When a new truck comes online, the manager doesn't need to enter data in five places. They use `get_vehicle` (with necessary metadata) and then call `create_meter_entry` once to log its initial odometer reading.

## Benefits

- Automate Data Logging: You can record new odometer readings or report a problem using `create_meter_entry` or `create_issue`, eliminating the need to manually open forms. Your agent handles the data capture instantly.
- Instant Status Checks: Instead of navigating multiple dashboards, you simply ask your agent for an overview of all assets using `list_vehicles`. You get immediate status updates on everything in minutes.
- Compliance Visibility: Quickly check upcoming required services with `list_service_reminders` or pull detailed records using `get_vehicle`, ensuring vehicles stay compliant and safe without manual cross-checking.
- Streamlined Coordination: Need to contact a specific driver or external repair shop? Use `list_contacts` or `list_vendors` to get the right information instantly, speeding up logistics coordination.
- Full Audit Trail: Generate operational reports by listing all fuel entries (`list_fuel_entries`) and viewing work orders (`list_work_orders`), providing a complete financial and maintenance audit trail.
