BoardSpy: Traffic Alerts

Traffic alerts before you leave. BoardSpy checks the traffic on your commute route and tells you exactly when to leave, so you stop getting stuck in rush hour on the way to work. Navigation apps only show you traffic once you're already in the car. BoardSpy sends commute alerts before you get in it. Set your route once. We handle every working day. HOW BOARDSPY WORKS 1. Save your route. Home to work, work to home, the school run — any drive you make regularly. 2. Set your schedule. Arrival time, working days, time zone, and how many minutes of delay is worth an alert. 3. Get your traffic alert. A push notification before you leave, with the fastest route today and any detour you need. TRAFFIC ALERTS BEFORE YOU LEAVE BoardSpy runs a live traffic check on your saved route ahead of your departure time and pushes the result to your phone. "Traffic is clear, leave at 8:22." Or: "Leave 15 minutes early, the highway is backed up." You set the delay threshold, so quiet mornings stay quiet. BEST ROUTE AND DETOUR ALERTS We compare your usual commute route against live alternatives every time we check, and update your ETA as conditions change. When today is a day to go a different way, the alert says so before you've committed to the wrong road. ROAD CONDITIONS AT A GLANCE Live road conditions on the roads you actually drive — congestion, closures, incidents and slowdowns on your route, not a whole-city map you have to read. ASK SCOUT — YOUR VOICE COMMUTE ASSISTANT Scout is the voice assistant built into BoardSpy, and you can ask it anything about traffic or your city without touching the screen. "How's the highway right now?" "Is my route clear?" "How long to the office?" Speak or type, and Scout answers out loud while you get ready. FIND FOOD AND COFFEE ON YOUR ROUTE Ask Scout to find restaurants near you or food on your route home. It reads out the best options with ratings, distance and a map. Coffee before the office, lunch near the job site, somewhere to eat on the drive back — with no pulling over to search and no typing while you drive. MEET YOUR COMMUTE COMPANION Scout is more than a voice — it's an interactive mascot that reacts to your commute. Tap for an instant traffic read, long-press for more. Its mood shifts with the road ahead: clear, heavy, or rain — so you can tell how your morning looks at a glance, before you read a word. ROUTE WEATHER Rain, snow, fog and severe weather along your commute corridor, included in the same morning brief. One notification covers traffic and weather together. CARPOOL AND RIDE SHARING Find people already driving your route. Share the ride, split the cost, use the HOV lane, and put one less car on the road at rush hour. DEALS ALONG THE WAY Time-sensitive local offers from Instagram and Facebook, filtered to the businesses you drive past. EMAIL ALERTS AND WEB ACCESS No app to open. BoardSpy runs on Android, iPhone and the web, and can email your alert as well as push it — so it reaches you wherever you are at 7:50am. WHO USES BOARDSPY • Daily commuters with a fixed start time • Parents doing the school run • Nurses, shift workers and anyone who cannot be late • Delivery drivers and field reps • Anyone who drives the same route to work every day WHY NOT JUST USE A MAPS APP? A maps app is a navigator. It's excellent at the drive, and has nothing to say about the decision you make ten minutes before it. Google Maps removed its dedicated commute tab in 2024 and nothing replaced it. Most people run both: BoardSpy to decide when to go, then their navigator for the drive. BoardSpy hands off in one tap.
