The €20 late fee was applied in error.

Jack returned the Tesla Model 3 at 3:42 PM on Sunday, well before the 6:00 PM booking end, so the delayed-return penalty shouldn't have been charged. The €140 weekend booking fee is correct and stays. Lanterne recommends refunding the €20 and has drafted the reply for you to relay on the call.

What changes if you approve

Jack pays€140
Draft reply · for you to relay

Hi Jack, I've had a proper look at your booking. You returned the Tesla at 3:42 PM on Sunday, well before your 6:00 PM end time, so that €20 late fee shouldn't have been there. I'm waiving it now; the €140 weekend booking stands. You'll see the €20 back on your card in a few days.

ADYour call, Adam

How Lanterne got here

  1. Read Adam's case note: "returned the Tesla early, still hit with a late fee."
    Pulled booking 2047106877 from MOQO: planned end 6:00 PM Sunday, actual return logged 3:42 PM.
    Compared the charge lines: weekend booking €140 is per the rate card; the €20 delayed-return penalty conflicts with the 3:42 PM return.
    Checked the front-line playbook: first dispute from this customer, goodwill-first applies, amount is under Adam's €50 authority.

  2. Moving money and messaging the customer are yours. The decision is laid out above.
  3. Once you decide, Lanterne records what happened and who decided, and the case closes with a receipt.
Likely fine · renewed card

Mia's card was renewed; the record on file wasn't.

Mia Clarke's licence failed validation, and the expiry on file falls inside this month: the classic sign of a licence renewed while the old card details stayed on the account. Lanterne recommends the standard retest first. About nine in ten of these clear right here.

Licence record read Expiry falls inside this month DoT check is yours to run · Lanterne can't do the lookup
The retest · WA licences renew for 12 months or 5 years
  1. On the DoT site, test the same licence number with the expiry moved +12 months.
  2. No luck? Test it again at +5 years.
  3. One of them validates for most renewed cards; clear Mia and she can book straight away.
Draft email · only if neither retest validates

Hi Mia, we couldn't confirm your licence against the current record. If you've renewed it recently, could you send us the new valid-to date shown on your card? We'll update it and you'll be able to book right away.

ADYour call, Adam· licences are advise-only, by the playbook.

How Lanterne got here 2 steps

  1. Picked the failed validation off the portal queue: licence number, expiry, date of birth.
    Expiry on file falls inside the current month, matching the renewed-card pattern that clears on retest ~90% of the time.
    Checked the playbook: licences are never cleared by Lanterne; the retest guidance and the customer email are prepared instead.
  2. If a retest validates, mark Mia cleared. If neither does, the drafted email asks Mia for the new valid-to date on her card.

Booked driver confirmed

Dan is the booked driver; the app lost sync with the car.

Dan Foster is standing at the Mini in Southgate with an active booking, and his app won't unlock it. The failed attempts in the log fit a sync error. The lock-then-unlock reset didn't take, so the remote unlock is staged. It is sent only when you approve, and the customer is waiting with the car.

Return verified

The car is back and checks out; the booking never closed.

Jules Bennett left the car in a basement car park, where it has no signal to close the booking on its own. The car reads locked, keys in, ignition off, right where he said he left it. The next driver's booking starts at 6 PM. Closing it frees the car; both customer messages are drafted.

Needs repair · €340

Dent on rear-left panel requires repair.

Marcus Webb returned the Corsa and flagged a mark in the app, with three photos. The photos show a dent on the rear-left quarter panel that needs repair. The car is free until Monday, so it can be booked for Thursday at Southgate Bodyshop. The repair order is drafted and ready for you to approve.

ADYour call, Adam

How Lanterne got here

  1. Read Marcus Webb's report and the three photos.
    Pulled the booking: the system had auto-tagged it a minor front-bumper scuff, low confidence.
    Compared the photos to the car's last clean set: it's a dent on the rear-left quarter panel, not the bumper.
    Checked the calendar: the Corsa is free until Monday, so Thursday works.
    Held Thursday 09:00 at Southgate Bodyshop, quote €340.

  3. Once you decide, Lanterne raises the repair order, assigns a field task to bring the car in, and the case closes with a receipt.

Workshop Chase

Every car out for repair or inspection, watched against the date the workshop quoted. Asks you first

How it runs
Tracks every car out at a workshop against the return date it quoted.
Anything past its quoted return gets grouped into one chase; your click sends every email at once, each one logged as its own receipt.
Never chases a workshop still inside its quoted window; only the overdue ones get a nudge.

Back to the dispatch See the Corsa come back
Repair complete · €340 Bookable again

The Corsa's back from Southgate, repaired and ready for Monday.

Southgate Bodyshop finished the rear-left quarter panel repair Sunday evening — two days past their Friday quote, but still three days clear of Monday's 9:00 AM booking, the whole reason Thursday's slot was chosen. The return photos match the repair order: quarter panel resprayed, no other marks. The car's back at Central Station and released for booking.

How Lanterne got here

  1. Adam approved the repair order Thursday morning; Priya Shah dropped the Corsa at Southgate by 9:00.
  2. Two days past the Friday quote, the Corsa was grouped into the standing workshop report and chased along with 2 others in one click.
  3. Return photos confirmed the fix, Southgate's invoice matched the €340 quote, and the car was released back into the booking pool.

Reservation Swap

A booking's car won't be ready: low charge, a fault, not back in time. A like-for-like car takes over before the driver notices.
Inspections

Every car's inspection deadline, watched. Workshops get emailed, replies get parsed, and the whole cycle books in one click.
Battery Watch

96% and not charging is fine; 38% with a booking coming is not. The ones that matter become tasks for the nearest field agent.
Workshop monitoring

Every car in a workshop with a weekend booking, chased. Ready-on-time is confirmed; the rest are rebooked or brought to you in one batch.
Task allocation

Every due task — cleaning, charging, damage — grouped by area and drive time into one round per field agent. An hour of planning becomes a five-minute review.
Checklists

Field agents complete the checklist once at the car on their phone. Lanterne files it into the legacy work portal overnight, with photos, and never overwrites.
Station Reminders

Scheduled turnarounds are chased on a fixed cadence: thirty days before the due date, on the due date, and once overdue.
Station Monitoring

Station performance ranked, the weekly management report prepared, and each follow-up drafted for approval before dispatch.
Infleeting

The monthly roster is classified and previewed, then each arriving vehicle is assigned its station, schedule and initial checks under one approval.
Defleet

Departing vehicles have their open work archived and their schedules ended, with the complete history retained.

Reservation Swap

Bookings whose car won't be ready, swapped before the driver notices. Autonomous

How it runs
Watches every upcoming booking against live charge, charging state and fault signals from the car.
Finds a like-for-like car at the same station for the exact window, swaps the booking and emails the driver a one-tap accept. A nicer car costs the driver nothing; the difference comes back automatically.
Never cancels a booking; the cancel-penalty-refund churn is exactly what it exists to avoid. If the driver declines, it comes to you.

How it runs
Reads the due list straight from your fleet sheet and drafts the workshop emails; nothing gets retyped.
Parses replies even when they're free text ("bring five or six cars Thursday") and stages the bookings around existing customer bookings. One click books the lot and updates the sheet.

Under the threshold with a booking coming, it opens a charge task for the nearest field agent and pushes it to their phone. A car that can't make its booking gets handed to Reservation Swap.

Workflow details· one run, four steps

  1. One request per workshop covers every vehicle it holds, not one request per vehicle. The request asks whether each vehicle will be ready as booked and, if not, when.
    11:30: reminder sent to the three workshops that had not answered.
  2. 15 confirmed ready as booked. 4 rebooked at the same station in the same class under your rules, with each change logged.
    7 could not be resolved. Reasons included one within the 48-hour window, three with no same-class vehicle available, and two at a workshop that did not reply.
  3. The rules resolved all eligible cases. The remaining cases require a choice between swapping or deferring the booking.
  4. After all vehicles are resolved, Lanterne drafts one email per workshop covering every vehicle. A workshop holding three vehicles receives one message, not three.

Damage Triage

Return photos graded against the damage guide. Asks you first

How it runs
Every return's photos get compared with the last set on file; light wear is released and noted.
Anything that grades as real damage puts a hold on the car and drafts a quote for your call.
Never bills a customer on its own; charges always go through you.

Supplier bills parsed, matched, reconciled. Autonomous

How it runs

Workshop monitoring

Every car sitting in a workshop with a booking over the weekend, chased before it strands a driver. Asks you first

How it runs
Reads workshop bookings from MOQO and flags every car with a customer booking over the weekend. Sends each workshop one status request covering all its cars; one reply confirms whether each will be ready as booked and, if not, when.
If a car won't be ready and a like-for-like is free at the same depot, it rebooks under your rules — same depot first, then a neighbouring one, then defer — and logs the change. Anything outside the rules comes to you.
Never changes the car on a booking within 48 hours of pickup without your go. Cases land with you by early afternoon, not end of day.

Checklists

The field agent completes the checklist once at the car on their phone; Lanterne files it into the legacy work portal overnight. Asks you first

How it runs
Enters the mobile checklist, required fields and photos into the existing legacy-portal forms through a dedicated data-entry account. No API needed — it works the same screens your team does.
Runs overnight, outside working hours, so it never competes with the team on the portal during the day. Checks the form and fields before every entry; if anything deviates or a value is missing, it stops and flags an exception instead of guessing.
Never overwrites an existing entry. Every entry is logged with the car, time and account. During the pilot, one person approves every entry.

Station Reminders

Every scheduled turnaround carries its own reminder cadence, so a non-responding station is followed up without manual review. Autonomous

How it runs
Recurs on a fixed interval from the scheduled date. Reminders are sent to the station mailbox thirty days before the due date, on the due date, and once the task is overdue.
Where the previous occurrence remains untouched, it is archived and reissued, so each vehicle carries one open task. Where a technician has opened it or added a comment, the task is retained and a comment records that the next occurrence is due.
Tasks are never deleted. No reminder is issued twice for the same occurrence. Due dates are displayed in the fleet timezone.

Station Monitoring

Station performance, the weekly management report, and the follow-ups prepared for approval. Asks you first

How it runs
Ranks each station on completed, properly completed, open and overdue tasks, reminders already issued, and last recorded activity. Stations with no assigned work are reported separately from stations that have not responded.
Completion is assessed against checklist answers and attached evidence, so marked complete and properly completed are reported as separate figures. Station payment depends on proper completion. Each follow-up is presented with its recipient, content, language and prior reminder history before dispatch.
No message is dispatched without approval. No reminder already issued by the cadence is repeated. Escalation to regional management is presented as a proposed action and requires separate approval.

Infleeting

The monthly roster is classified, previewed per row, and applied under a single approval. Asks you first

How it runs
Classifies every row of the roster before any record is written: arriving, departing, branch move, unchanged, or unreadable.
Each arriving vehicle is previewed with its assigned station, turnaround schedule, initial checks and first due date. One approval applies to the entire file.
Unclassified rows are excluded and reported. Approval is bound to the reviewed file, and re-running the same file does not enrol a vehicle twice.

Defleet

Departing vehicles are removed from the active board with their complete history retained. Asks you first

How it runs
Takes the departing rows from the same roster and previews, per vehicle, the open tasks to be archived and the schedules to be ended.
Work is archived rather than deleted. The vehicle leaves the active board and its full task, checklist and evidence history is retained on the record.
A vehicle with work in progress is withheld from the batch and reported. A branch move is executed as a re-assignment, retaining the vehicle's history and schedule position.

Task allocation

Every due task grouped by area and drive time into one round per field agent. An hour of planning becomes a five-minute review. Asks you first

How it runs
Gathers every due task — cleaning by interval, charging and telematics from INVERS, damage and complaint tasks — into one list, grouped by area and drive time, with an eye on upcoming bookings.
The service-vehicle lead reviews the plan, adjusts exceptions and sends every round in one step. Live availability shows on each car; a car can be booked in one click on the agent's own MOQO login.
Never rates individual performance. It assigns by area and availability and leaves the route to the agent.

New rear-left scratch on QNB-517, with the supporting context.

Lanterne merged three reports submitted within seven minutes into one case because they show the same spot. The car's history has no damage at this location. The ignition was on from 07:12 to 07:31 and the first report arrived at 07:34, after the booking ended. Lanterne gives this context but does not assign fault. Your team decides what happens next.

How Lanterne got here

  1. 189 duplicates were merged, and 58 previously documented damages were marked and closed. The remaining 24 relevant cases include this one.
  2. The three reports show the same spot from different angles and are grouped into one case rather than three.
    The car's history includes right-door damage from 2024 and front-bumper damage from 2023; the rear-left damage is new.

Fuel-card invoice is €48.16 over the contracted rate.

Lanterne read the November fuel-card statement from FleetTank GmbH, matched every line to a booking and to rate card v14, and posted 36 of 38 invoices clean. This one it held. Across 24 fill-ups, 1,204 litres were billed at €1.92/L against the contracted €1.88 — €48.16 over — while the other 37 lines match to the cent. Lanterne drafts the query but never pays or disputes on its own.

Needs your call · no like-for-like How swap runs

The e-Golf won't be charged for the 2 PM booking, and no like-for-like is free.

Reservation Swap watches every booking against live charge. NGB-338 on booking 2050410 has sat at 41% since 09:20 and won't reach a safe range by 14:00. There's no same-tier car free at North Station for that window, so Lanterne doesn't swap on its own. It found two options and drafted the driver's message for each; your call which goes out.

Nothing is cancelled. The booking moves as one piece, so there's no penalty and no refund churn.
ADYour call, Adam

How Lanterne got here

  1. NGB-338's 14:00 booking was checked against its charge and charging state.
    At 41% and not drawing, it won't reach a safe range in time.
  2. No same-tier car is free at North Station for 14:00–18:00, so Lanterne holds rather than swap on its own.
  3. Lanterne prepared both options and drafted the driver's message for each. Which one goes out is yours.
  4. After your decision, Lanterne moves the booking and sends the one-tap accept, or caps the range and applies the credit, and logs it.
Charge shortfall · booking at risk How Battery Watch runs

RWH-204 won't reach its 4 PM booking on the current charger.

Battery Watch stays quiet above the threshold. RWH-204 has a 16:00 booking and sits at 38%, drawing slowly: on this charger it reaches 58% by 16:00, short of the 70% the booking needs. Lanterne opened a charge task to move it to the fast bay 300 m away and pushed it to Ben Carter, 1.2 km out. The fast bay is a paid partner site; that €6 is the one thing it won't spend without you.

ADYour call, Adam

How Lanterne got here

  1. RWH-204 sat at 38% and drawing only 2%/h, with a 16:00 booking that needs 70%.
    Above the threshold it stays quiet; this one crossed it.
  2. On the current charger it reaches 58% by 16:00 — short. The fast bay 300 m away clears it to 72%.
  3. Lanterne opened the task and pushed it to the nearest agent. The €6 partner bay is the one spend it won't make without you.
  4. With the bay approved, RWH-204 charges in time and the task closes on confirmation. Without it, the booking hands to Reservation Swap.
