The primary purpose of Keika Log is to streamline the daily work of light-haul truck drivers and support legal compliance as a work management app that complies with the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism (MLIT) standards that came into effect in April 2025. These standards, backed by strengthened safety management in light-haul truck transport, include mandatory work hour management, vehicle inspections, and alcohol checks. Keika Log provides digital tools to meet these requirements and eliminates paper-based management, aiming to reduce the burden on drivers and ensure compliance for businesses. It is designed to be easy to use, even for beginners, and is suitable for a wide range of drivers, from individual drivers to corporations.
1. Supporting Work with an Intuitive Home Screen
The Keika Log home screen is designed to allow users to start work quickly and easily. Its intuitive interface provides a clearly organized layout of key functions (e.g., starting work, entering inspection sheets, and alcohol checks). Highly visible icons and buttons, combined with a simple color scheme, improve usability. For example, checking the day's tasks and entering inspections can be done with a single tap from the home screen, eliminating complex menu navigation. A dynamic UI utilizing JavaScript displays real-time notifications and task progress, making it easy for drivers to understand the workflow. This design allows even users unfamiliar with digital tools to operate the tool without any hesitation, improving work efficiency.
② Inspection Sheet Compliant with the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism (MLIT) Standards, which came into effect in April 2025
Keikarlog features a vehicle inspection sheet function that complies with the MLIT's 2025 standards. These standards require daily inspections of light freight vehicles (brakes, tires, lighting equipment, etc.) and require the retention of records. The app's inspection sheet provides comprehensive checklist-style information, allowing users to complete the inspection simply by checking each item. To prevent input errors, a warning is displayed if required fields are left blank. Inspection data is stored in the cloud and can be easily submitted during administrative inspections. Smooth data processing using JavaScript allows for quick entry and saving of inspection sheets, eliminating the risk of loss that often occurs with paper inspection sheets. This feature is a core element for achieving both improved safety and compliance with regulations.
③ Image registration for alcohol checks ensures reliable evidence preservation.
The alcohol check function complies with the breathalyzer tests mandated by the MLIT standards, ensuring reliable evidence preservation. Drivers enter their breathalyzer results into the app and can simultaneously take and register photos of the breathalyzer screen and their own face. This image registration function utilizes JavaScript camera integration, allowing for a seamless process from taking the photo to uploading. This ensures the accuracy of breathalyzer tests, contributing to proof during government inspections and accident prevention.
④ Thorough Support for Light Cargo Beginners
KeiKag Log is designed for those new to the light cargo industry, emphasizing ease of use and learning support. The app includes beginner-friendly guides and tutorials that clearly explain the process (inspection, delivery, and recording). In addition, an FAQ section and simple manuals are built into the app to address common hurdles for beginners. Even users with limited expertise in light cargo operations can quickly learn the process through the app, lowering the barrier to entry.
⑤ Planned addition of a corporate management menu. Thorough support for corporations struggling with driver management.
KeiKag Log plans to add a corporate management menu in the future. This feature is aimed at businesses managing multiple drivers and will provide a dashboard for centralized management of driver work data (work hours, inspection history, and alcohol test results). Managers can monitor each driver's status in real time and receive alerts for overtime or missed inspections. Dynamic updates using JavaScript ensure data is updated immediately, enabling efficient management. Planned features include automatic report generation and compliance checks, reducing the management burden for corporate users. Data sharing with subcontractors will also be simplified, allowing even small businesses to build management systems comparable to large businesses. This feature will be a powerful support tool for businesses struggling with driver shortages and the risk of legal violations.
Summary
KeiKag Log is a light freight business management app that complies with the April 2025 Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism (MLIT) standards. It features an intuitive home screen, standard-compliant inspection sheets, image alcohol tests, beginner support, and corporate management features (planned). Smooth operation using JavaScript and cloud integration achieve both efficiency and compliance. It reduces the workload for light freight drivers and businesses and promotes the digitalization of the industry.
