Technician Availability Tracking Software for Field Service

Dispatching the right technician starts with knowing who's available, where they are, and how fast they can arrive. NextBillion.ai's technician availability tracking software gives field service operations real-time visibility into every agent's location and status — so you assign faster, reduce response times, and keep every job on schedule without the manual coordination overhead.

The founders building the future of field service intelligence.

Ajay Bulusu, Co-Founder of NextBillion.ai

Ajay Bulusu

Co-Founder

Ajay Bulusu is a co-founder of NextBillion.ai, bringing deep expertise in geospatial technology and large-scale location platform engineering. His journey began in 2017 as part of Grab's pioneering Geo team, where he helped build the location infrastructure underpinning one of Southeast Asia's largest mobility and logistics platforms. That experience revealed how critical — and how underserved — accurate, flexible location technology was for real-world operations. Driven by a mission to democratize sophisticated location intelligence, Ajay co-launched NextBillion.ai in 2020. Under his technical leadership, the platform has scaled to serve 150+ businesses globally, optimize over 10.9 million deliveries and field tasks, and deliver more than $11 million in documented cost savings to customers.

Gaurav Bubna

Co-Founder

Gaurav Bubna drives product innovation at NextBillion.ai, bringing a proven track record of building successful products from scratch across ride-hailing, food delivery, and logistics. Before co-founding NextBillion.ai, Gaurav held product leadership roles at Grab, Ola, and Morgan Stanley — organizations where location technology and operational efficiency are existential. His time on Grab's Geo team alongside Ajay and Shaolin crystallized the vision: logistics and field service businesses needed enterprise-grade location intelligence without prohibitive per-call pricing. Since launching NextBillion.ai in 2020, Gaurav has led the product evolution that has helped the platform navigate over 557 million miles and raise $34.25M in venture capital from investors including Lightspeed and Microsoft's M12.

Shaolin Zheng

Co-Founder

Shaolin Zheng is a co-founder of NextBillion.ai, contributing deep technical expertise in geospatial systems and scalable mapping infrastructure. Like his co-founders, Shaolin's formative experience building location technology for Grab's Geo team gave him firsthand insight into the operational gaps that generic mapping solutions leave unaddressed — particularly for field service and logistics businesses operating at scale. His engineering perspective shapes NextBillion.ai's core philosophy: location technology must be customizable, cost-predictable, and production-reliable. The platform he helped build now powers GPS tracking, route optimization, and field service intelligence for over 150 businesses worldwide, with on-premise deployment options and SOC 2 Type II and ISO/IEC 27001:2013 certifications ensuring enterprise-grade security.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does technician availability tracking software work in real time?

The software uses GPS and mobile SDK integrations to capture each technician's live location, movement status, and job progress at configurable update intervals. Dispatchers see a unified map view showing who is available, en route, or on-site — enabling instant assignment decisions based on real-world conditions, not last-known positions or manual check-ins.

Can the software automatically assign jobs to the nearest available technician?

What happens when a technician is unavailable or a job needs to be reassigned?

Does the tracking work in areas with poor mobile connectivity?

How does the software help dispatchers manage technician territory assignments?

Can I get automated notifications when a technician arrives at or departs a job site?

What integrations are available with existing field service management platforms?

How is pricing structured — is it based on API calls or technician count?
