Rail Mate

Rail Mate is the field tool for rail teams. Rail Mate puts the calculations rail crews actually use in their pocket — stress checks, gauge, curve, ballast, sleeper count, rail profile. Pick your network and the calculators load that network's typical limits and defaults. No more flipping through a folder of network procedures in the back of the ute. The Pro tier turns those calculations into something you can send. Build a job report as you go, attach photos straight from your phone, add chainages and notes per item, then export the whole thing as a PDF. The report your client wants is done before you leave site. For stressing work, the Stressing Operations tool walks you through planning, execution, and validation in one flow. Inputs autosave, drafts resume where you left off, and the achieved SFT is calculated live as you measure.
