Roadmap

Where the project is heading

Nothing on this page is available today. Items are markedIn preparation when the foundations are in the code but the feature is not finished,Planned when the path is clear, andVision when the idea is long-term.

Status can change. Some items will move forward, some will be set aside. The status of the actual implementation lives in the repository.

Planned modules

The module system is live and modules are available today. These are the next modules on the way — not yet available, but with a clear path. One is already in preparation.

  • Inventory

    In preparation

    An inventory module spanning the admin dashboard and the driver PWA, covering both material stock and consumables. Operators update what is in the store and assign items or material to a vehicle or a driver. After a job, a driver records what was used — say 5 kg of grit salt — and it is deducted from stock, so the operator has an internal overview of where, what, when, and how much was consumed. A return interface books borrowed material back into the store at the end of the day, keeping a running picture of where everything is.

  • Route planning

    Planned

    Plan the order in which sites are served across a shift, so that routes are organised rather than improvised.

  • Geofencing

    Planned

    Define an area around a site so that arrival and departure can be recognised automatically, without manual check-ins.

  • Additional language modules

    Planned

    More interface languages beyond those available today — Polish and Spanish are next on the list.

Country-specific compliance modules

Optional modules tailored to documentation needs in specific jurisdictions. None of these are available today.

  • Germany — Verkehrssicherungspflicht context

    Vision

    Documentation tuned to German liability documentation conventions.

  • United States

    Vision

    Documentation tuned to US contractor expectations.

  • Canada

    Vision

    Documentation tuned to Canadian provincial differences.

  • United Kingdom

    Vision

    Documentation tuned to UK GDPR and HSE context.

  • Austria

    Vision

    Documentation tuned to Austrian liability practice.

  • Switzerland

    Vision

    Documentation tuned to Swiss cantonal practice.

Platform and integration

Long-running platform investments that shape what Wintertrace can do in five years.

  • Public REST API

    Vision

    A documented public REST API for read-only integration into ERP and accounting systems. The architecture is prepared; the API surface is not yet defined.

  • Multi-installation operator overview

    Vision

    For larger operators who run more than one installation, a roll-up view across installations. Not in scope today.

  • Managed hosting (optional service)

    Vision

    Operators who do not want to self-host could opt into managed hosting on the maintainer's infrastructure. Optional, never required.

Summer operations

Extending the documentation model beyond winter — long-term, not soon.

  • Grounds maintenance module

    Vision

    Mowing, hedge cutting, and other ground maintenance operations using the same GPS + weather + photo + PDF model.

  • Year-round operator profile

    Vision

    Allow operators to switch between winter and summer modes without separate installations.

About country-specific compliance modules: these are roadmap items, not deliverables. They are markedVision and will only ever be described as available once they are implemented, released, and reviewed by someone with relevant subject-matter knowledge.

Wintertrace provides documentation support. It is not a substitute for legal advice.

Implementation tracking lives on GitHub.
