Bottom line
Trackunit is a construction technology vendor whose IrisX operating data platform and telematics hardware connect heavy equipment, tools and jobsites for OEMs, rental companies and contractors. It combines an open Bluetooth network, mixed-fleet management, access management, theft defense and emissions reporting with 1,200+ prebuilt connectors and REST/GraphQL APIs. Pricing is quote-based per connected asset, with monthly billing available but contracts typically 36-42 months, and rollout normally involves installing IoT devices across the fleet.
Frequently asked questions
How is Trackunit priced?
Trackunit does not publish list prices. Pricing is quote-based and tailored, built in four steps: a software plan (OEM, Rental or Contractor), asset configuration, a service package, and optional add-ons. Trackunit states that volume benefits lower the price per connected asset, a monthly billing option is available, and contract terms are generally 36 or 42 months. Certain add-ons require your fleet plan to be at the Evolve or Expand level.
How long does a Trackunit rollout take?
Trackunit does not publish a standard implementation timeline. Deployment involves choosing a software plan, configuring asset categories and telematics capabilities, selecting a service package and picking add-ons, plus installing IoT devices on each asset. Buyers should budget for a hardware rollout project and validate timelines with a Trackunit representative.
What does the IrisX MCP integration actually do?
Trackunit launched IrisX MCP, which connects IrisX equipment intelligence to AI clients including ChatGPT, Claude and Copilot, or other agents. Conversations are grounded in the same enriched data and governed access used by the platform, so teams can query fleet and site data in tools they already use.
Which systems can Trackunit integrate with?
Trackunit advertises more than 1,200 prebuilt, low-code connectors along with IrisX REST, GraphQL, Time Series and Rental ERP APIs. Connectors cover CRMs, rental management systems, BI tools and cloud platforms such as AWS, HubSpot, Microsoft Dynamics 365, Power BI, Databricks, Snowflake-style analytics stores and Excel. Two-way integration with ERP and rental systems is supported.
Does Trackunit train AI models on my fleet data?
The available Trackunit pages do not state whether customer data is used to train or improve AI models. The privacy page points to a sub-processor list and states that Trackunit informs customers about sub-processors, but no training statement is published. Buyers with strict data-governance requirements should get this confirmed in writing during contracting.
