Blue Ink Tech BIT ELD vs ELD GO

Blue Ink Tech BIT ELD combines electronic hours-of-service logs, driver vehicle inspection reports, and IFTA mileage in an app and web portal. Required hardware connects through a vehicle diagnostic port using 9-pin or OBD-II connections. The company says its ELDs are FMCSA registered and points users to the agency’s list to verify models. Driver and Inspector cards support roadside inspection workflows. Drivers can share a device or use separate devices, with team driving and drive-time swapping supported. The app and portal are available to try before purchasing the ELD. Compatible phones or tablets need Bluetooth 4.0 or better, GPS, and app-store access. Android, iOS, and web platforms are listed. Plans include $30 a month or $300 a year. Both include HOS logs, DVIRs, IFTA miles, app and portal access, and U.S.-based support; monthly subscribers can cancel anytime without a contract. Accounts can use REST and JSON API keys for listed fleet data. Hardware has a one-year defect warranty and a 30-day money-back return period.

ELD GO combines driver logs, fleet visibility, safety tools, and routine fleet operations in one system. Drivers can record driving activity, review duty status, and maintain hours-of-service logs for certification. Fleet views show vehicle locations, route activity, and selected geofence events. Alerts highlight approaching limits, violations, and records requiring attention. The system supports vehicle inspection reports and keeps records available for roadside review. Mileage is organized by jurisdiction to support quarterly IFTA reporting. Drivers and dispatchers can communicate inside the system, while document tools scan, store, and retrieve fleet records. The driver app runs on iOS and Android, and required ELD hardware connects through common vehicle ports. ELD GO is FMCSA-registered and supports inspection workflows. Its product lineup also includes asset trackers, dash camera systems, and fuel cards. Setup guides, driver help, inspection references, manuals, and contact support are listed resources.
