What Our Customers Say

Captain Place has revolutionized how we manage our school bus fleet. Parents love getting real-time updates, and we've reduced missed pickups by 90%. It's been a game-changer for our district.

- Sarah Johnson, Transportation Director
Riverside School District

The distance-based alerts are very useful for keeping parents informed. Setting a custom notification distance has made our mornings much smoother and more organized.

- Michael Chen, Operations Manager
Valley Elementary Schools

As a parent, I can't imagine going back to not knowing where the school bus is. The app gives me peace of mind, and my kids love tracking their bus on the way to school. Highly recommended!
