Yes

GT is a mobile application and online service for finding and renting the nearest available construction and truck equipment. The service is completely autonomous and allows you to automate the process of renting special equipment, including using geolocation, without installing additional equipment.

The project was launched in Belarus in November 2019. A number of significant adjustments in the logic of work - March 2020. As a result of a certain series of events in the country, since July 2020 the project is no longer progressing in Belarus. The company focused on scaling the project to other countries. Currently, licenses for Georgia, Armenia, and Azerbaijan have been implemented. In Georgia, the project will be launched on the market in October 2021.

As in any other field, the construction and truck rental market face many challenges. Among which:

- Availability and automation
of the rental process. Calls, sending mail, signing a contract, etc. - are still done manually.
- Simple or overrun technology. And, as a result, an increase in emissions into the atmosphere, load on traffic and the roadbed. Not to mention the additional costs of the owner.
- Lack of guarantees and transparency of the transaction. Forgot: call, send, write, make, pay, etc.
- Remoteness of equipment from the place of work. Time for delivery of equipment is included in the rental price. The further the equipment is, the less work the contractor will perform in the same period of time.

Answering the challenges (problems) indicated above:

- All processes are automated. Electronic document flow will allow you to be confident in the transparency of the transaction, control of payments, geolocation of equipment, order statuses, etc.
- Service is free for Contractors. It serves as an additional channel for customer acquisition, allowing you to reduce advertising costs. This, in turn, also allows you to avoid equipment downtime.
- We use uniform pricing, which excludes dumping and unfair competition. The contracts have public status and do not require signing by a second party.
- The service uses the real geolocation of the equipment and will automatically calculate the distance to the place of work. It also does not require the installation of additional equipment - the service uses the GPS data of the smartphone.

There are about 40 applications worldwide for organizing the rental of special equipment for iOS, Android, and WEB. Most, if not all, is a banal newspaper bulletin board moved online. To close the deal, you still need to:
- Call contractors for the possibility of performing work;
- Agree with them and formalize the deal with documents; - Pay (usually in cash);
- There is also no guarantee that the declared and serviceable equipment will arrive;
- Tracking the stages of the transaction (payment, delivery, location of equipment) is done manually

Our uniqueness lies in the skillful combination of components such as:
- Automation. From registration to completion of the transaction.
- Digital document flow based on public statuses;
- Automatic tracking of all stages of the transaction with notifications to all participants;
- Using the real geolocation of equipment * to reduce customer costs, as well as reduce the load on the roadway and traffic. As a result, the reduction of emissions of harmful substances into the atmosphere.
- An experience. 27 years on the market of construction and rental of special equipment and freight transport
* - it does not require the installation of additional equipment for equipment owners;

Income:
- commission to the cost of the order. Paid by the client (customer of the equipment);
Expenses:
- support center (1 dispatcher / application administrator);
- software support package (it is better to use a local contractor);
- marketing

The service is monetized by adding its own percentage (5-7%) to the total cost of services. The client is invoiced already taking into account the service commission. The contractor receives his share of the remuneration from the service.
