Dispatch board for taxi fleets in Manchester

Single-screen live console with WebSocket updates and AI Copilot inline. Configured for Manchester City Council Licensing.

Dispatch board in Manchester is the single-screen live console with websocket updates and ai copilot inline, configured against Manchester City Council Licensing and the operating reality of a 5.8k-vehicle market. TaxiCloud's dispatch board is single-screen by design: drag-to-assign, keyboard-first job actions, WebSocket-driven live updates from Reverb, AI Copilot inline. Designed for the 23-hour booking peak and the controller workflow that runs it. For Manchester specifically, the feature reads from regulator-aware booking, dispatch, and reporting surfaces — no bolt-on integration, no separate console.

Dispatch board in Manchester — the operating reality

Dispatch board ships against the Greater Manchester operating geography as a structural object. Most dispatch consoles still ship with a polling refresh model: every five seconds the page asks the server for state and re-renders. That looks fine in a demo and breaks under real operating load. TaxiCloud's dispatch board uses WebSocket subscriptions via Reverb — every state change in the live operation pushes to the console within 200ms, with no refresh flicker, no polling overhead, and no stale data. Driver pin movements, job-status changes, customer SMS deliveries, and AI Copilot suggestions all land continuously. In Manchester, the feature posts cleanly against Manchester City Council Licensing quarterly returns, vehicle inspection cycles, and the 5,800-vehicle scale that defines the market. MAN airport flows integrate natively where applicable.

How TaxiCloud delivers dispatch board in Manchester

Operators in Manchester typically run dispatch board on TaxiCloud after a 6-10 day migration off iCabbi, Autocab, Cordic, or TaxiCaller. The single-screen design is the second axis. Most controllers run multi-monitor setups today because legacy consoles split function across multiple windows: queue here, map there, customer record in a modal, settlement in a separate tab. TaxiCloud's board collapses the primary controller workflow onto one screen with the secondary surfaces in peripheral view (settlement, council-licensing flags, exception queues). The result is a 47% reduction in time-to-assign measured across pilot fleets — controllers are not navigating, they are operating. The dispatcher impact is highest in the Manchester operating tempo because Manchester City Council Licensing compliance overlays the standard PHV regulatory posture, and dispatch board surfaces the resulting reports through the same dispatch flow rather than as a separate finance task.
