When a truck breaks down, time isn’t just money. It’s survival. Fleets lose thousands for every day a vehicle is sidelined, while drivers are left frustrated and in the dark. That’s the reality Alex Bezzubets, Founder and CEO of myMechanic, set out to fix.

In this episode, Alex shares how myMechanic is tackling the technician shortage, cutting wasted calls, and giving fleets, drivers, and service providers the real-time coordination they’ve been missing.

Key takeaways:

• Roadside downtime can cost fleets thousands per day, making response speed critical.
• myMechanic eliminates up to 90% of the phone calls typically required during a breakdown.
• Fleets, drivers, and mechanics see the same updates, photos, and approvals in real time.
• The platform is agnostic, connecting providers and fleets without bias or ownership conflicts.
• Connectivity, not just technician supply, is the real bottleneck in roadside repairs.
