From Driver to Founder: The Story Behind Digital Permit Book

Djuro Kolundzija  
CEO & Founder, Digital Permit Book LLC.

I once believed trucking was all about moving freight—pick up, deliver, repeat. But after running 100+ trucks, I learned the hard truth: paperwork can bury you faster than any breakdown on I-80.

I started trucking in 2007 as a FedEx Ground driver. By 2012, I launched my own company. Ten years and 100+ trucks later, I'd seen it all—DOT inspections where drivers couldn't find the right permit, binders stuffed with outdated documents, and hours wasted sorting through paperwork instead of hauling loads.

Before trucking, I worked in tech. And somewhere between roadside audits and missing registrations, I realized I could solve this problem. That's how Digital Permit Book was born.

The idea was simple: if you're running a fleet, your documents should be one tap away—not buried in a binder behind the seat. No more expired permits. No more failed inspections over paperwork. No more headaches.

Since 2023, we've helped over 500 fleets and over 50,000 drivers make the switch from paper to digital. But we're not just a tech company looking in from the outside. We've sat in the driver's seat. We've dealt with the same compliance chaos you have.
