In their own words

Busology Tech Routing & Scheduling

Busology Tech Routing & Scheduling is school transportation software for planning routes and managing schedules across K-12 operations. It generates optimized routes and supports adjustments for road closures, absences, and special needs. Schedules can cover a day, week, or term, with one-time or recurring changes, and teams can model future plans without altering the live system. Routing can account for IEP and accessibility requirements, equipment checks, travel restrictions, and curbside pickup. The platform provides real-time bus tracking and route updates to drivers’ onboard tablets, and the maker says it integrates with most school ERP and student information systems. Parent, Admin, and Driver apps provide tracking, alerts, route updates, and communication; the Parent app is also described as available on desktop. Implementation includes one-on-one training, setup guides, and system integration, with timing varying by district size and bus count. Pricing is on request and varies by bus count and feature level. The service lists Android, iOS, and web platforms.
