AI Scheduling Agent for Skip-Hire and Dumpster Truck Fleets

Connects to a waste company's booking system and truck GPS, plans tomorrow's jobs for every driver in about a minute and re-plans during the day.

In plain English

Dayjob plans the daily routes for companies that drop off and pick up skips and dumpsters. It reads the bookings and where each truck is, then gives every driver a list of jobs. A human planner used to spend most of the morning on this. Two founders from Oxford sold it to waste firms by reaching out directly.

Step-by-step setup

  1. Choose one industry where a person still plans trucks by hand every morning.
  2. Connect the booking system and the trucks' GPS data.
  3. Let the AI build the schedule; the planner approves and tweaks.
  4. Sell yearly contracts by direct outreach to fleet owners.

Overview

Connects to a waste company’s booking system and truck GPS, plans tomorrow’s jobs for every driver in about a minute and re-plans during the day.

Operator: George Postlethwaite (CEO) and Fred Fooks (CTO). Website: https://www.dayjob.ai/

Estimated split: about 80% of the work automated, 20% human.

Realistic income

In their April 2026 Y Combinator launch post the founders wrote that Dayjob had $496,000 in yearly recurring revenue. A second, undated founder figure ($653K) does not fit the same timeline. This figure is operator-reported, not independently verified. This is one operator’s result, often after months or years of work, and doesn’t predict yours. Check the live source — numbers change.

Risks

  • The $496K yearly figure is a founder statement on Y Combinator and does not fit cleanly with a second founder figure.
  • Each customer’s systems are different, so setup takes work.
  • Bad schedules hit real drivers and customers the same day.
  • Startup cost and time to first dollar are not disclosed.

*Income figures are illustrative ranges based on public pricing and typical outcomes reported by practitioners, not guarantees. Most new online businesses earn little or nothing at first. Not financial, legal or tax advice.
