50-State Lien Engine

The moat we spent years digging.

Compiling, maintaining, and updating fifty states' lien-sale rules is years of work — notice timing, mailing requirements, sale windows, statutory forms, court-vs-DMV thresholds. We did it once. So you don't have to. Pick your state and see what's encoded.

In the field

The driver app, where most
tow software isn't.

Your dispatchers and drivers don't sit at desks. towyardIQ is a true PWA — one tap to install on iOS or Android, full-screen, offline-capable, and indistinguishable from a native app. The same console runs the dispatcher's phone, the yard clerk's tablet, and the GM's monitor.

  • One-tap accept / decline with priority and ETA
  • VIN scan from camera · works under bridges & in garages
  • Voice-clip notes & photo capture, queued offline
  • Background sync flushes the moment connectivity returns

Automation · Rules-Based

The work that should never need a human decision.

Lien deadlines, fee math, dispatch matching, compliance checks — deterministic logic running 24/7. Same input, same output, every time. This is not AI. It's automation done right.

AI · ML-Based

The work that requires judgment.

Reading a VIN off a glare-streaked dashboard photo. Predicting an auction hammer price. Skip-tracing an owner across DMV records. We use AI where AI is honestly the right tool — and we tell you exactly which models do what.

RULES

Lien-Sale Engine

State-specific notice timing, mailing requirements, and sale-eligibility windows for all 50 states. Auto-generates notices the day a vehicle qualifies.

Built in: Statute citations, mailing requirements, and DMV forms for every state.
RULES

Smart Dispatch Matching

Assigns calls by truck capability, distance, hours-of-service, and equipment match. Heavy-duty calls never go to a flatbed. Re-balances mid-shift as ETAs drift.

Built in: Truck capability, distance, hours-of-service, and equipment match.
RULES

Storage & Fee Calculator

Daily / hourly / indoor / outdoor rates. Holiday and after-hours surcharges. State-by-state max-cap enforcement. Itemized invoices on release.

Built in: Tiered rates, holiday calendars, after-hours surcharges, state max caps.
RULES

Compliance Watchdog

Watches CDL endorsements, DOT inspections, insurance certificates, and equipment recalls. Alerts before a violation, not after.

Built in: License, insurance, inspection, and recall date tracking.
RULES

SLA & Rotation Timer

Priority-based ETA targets, police-rotation logging, breach detection, automatic supervisor escalation at 75% and 100%.

Built in: Per-priority ETA targets and automatic supervisor escalation.
RULES

Late-Fee & Interest Engine

Configurable grace periods, flat or %-based fees, jurisdiction-specific limits. Inspects existing items to prevent double-charging. Full audit trail.

Built in: Configurable fees, jurisdiction caps, full audit trail.
ML

VIN & Plate OCR

Reads VINs off dashboards, door jambs, and engine bays. Reads plates from any angle. Handles glare, rain, low-light, and partial-occlusion shots.

How it works: Trained on millions of real photos · cross-checked against NHTSA records.
ML

Damage Classification

Labels each photo with pre-existing vs. tow-related damage, severity, location, and a defensible audit trail. Reduces post-release dispute volume.

How it works: Tags damage by area and severity, captured at intake before release.
ML

Auction Price Prediction

Predicts hammer price by year/make/model/condition/region. Suggests reserves. Flags vehicles likely to redeem before sale — saves wasted notice cost.

How it works: Trained on years of regional auction data · recalibrates on your yard's outcomes.
ML

Owner Skip-Trace

Cross-references plate, DMV records, insurance hits, and prior-address data to locate elusive owners. Auto-drafts certified mailers per state format.

How it works: Searches DMV, insurance, and prior addresses · humans review every mailer before mailing.
ML

Operations Assistant

Ask: "How many vehicles are 30+ days in the yard?" or "Revenue by tow class last quarter." Get a narrative + chart + sortable table.

How it works: Reads your live data; cannot change anything · usage limits keep costs predictable.
ML

Intake Triage

Reads CAD descriptions and classifies tow class, equipment, and priority before a dispatcher touches it. High-confidence calls auto-dispatch.

How it works: Suggests fields as you type · accept or reject · learns from your team over time.
Built to Scale

From 1 truck
to 100+.

Most tow software forces a choice: simple tools that break at scale, or enterprise systems that take a year to deploy. towyardIQ is both — the same platform from solo operator to multi-yard portfolio.

Why towyardIQ

Designed by operators.
For operators.

We didn't build this in a Silicon Valley vacuum. towyardIQ was born from years of dispatching trucks, processing impounds, mailing lien notices, and watching legacy software fail when the yard fills up.

No per-vehicle pricing

Flat, predictable subscription. Your cost doesn't spike during a storm-event tow surge.

State-specific lien sales

All 50 states pre-loaded. Notice timing, mailings, sale windows — built in, not bolted on.

Setup in days, not months

Migrate from TOPS, Tracker, RanSoft, or spreadsheets. Free white-glove migration included.

Custom roles & approvals

Owner, Dispatcher, Driver, Yard Clerk, Accountant, Auditor. Your rules, your approval chains.

Multi-yard portfolios

Manage separate impound lots and rotation contracts under one login with strict isolation.

Police-rotation ready

CAD integration, rotation-log compliance, and officer portals — out of the box.

Field Report · 2026
"We dropped TOPS after 11 years. towyardIQ handles our police rotation, lien sales, and yard the way our dispatchers actually think — and the AI catches deadlines our office used to miss."
