The seamless data synchronization between the two platforms will provide the following capabilities:

-

The Whip Around-Linxup API integration is available immediately. Existing customers of both platforms can contact their representatives to set up the integration.
"This integration with Linxup represents a significant step forward in our mission to help businesses improve vehicle and asset uptime while streamlining operational efficiency," said Noah Hickey, CEO of Whip Around. "By combining our strengths in inspections and maintenance with Linxup's expertise in GPS tracking, we're providing a solution that addresses the full spectrum of asset management and tracking needs.”
"We're excited to partner with Whip Around to offer our customers an enhanced fleet management experience," said Drew Reynolds, CEO of Linxup. "This integration allows fleet managers to leverage the best of both worlds — our robust GPS tracking and telematics data combined with Whip Around's comprehensive maintenance and inspection tools."
A future phase of the API integration will allow fleet professionals to access real-time asset location data directly within the Whip Around platform, the company said.
