# How can a business with vans, trucks or service vehicles use AI to review fuel card transactions, so mistakes and misuse are caught early without treating every driver as a suspect?

Start from your vehicle list with tank sizes and fuel types, the fuel card transactions, mileage or telematics records and the fuel policy drivers already signed. AI matches each transaction to a vehicle and driver, compares fuel bought with distance driven and tank size, and flags fill-ups larger than the tank, the wrong fuel type, purchases far from the vehicle’s route, out-of-hours or weekend use and non-fuel items where the policy does not allow them. A fleet manager reviews every flag and talks to the driver before deciding anything, many flags turn out to have a simple explanation, and disciplinary decisions follow your existing HR process, never the system.

## What this means in practice

- Start from vehicles, tank sizes, fuel types, card transactions and mileage.
- Match each transaction to a vehicle and driver.
- Compare fuel bought with distance driven and tank size.
- Flag oversized fills, wrong fuel, off-route, out-of-hours and non-fuel purchases.
- Have a fleet manager review every flag and talk to the driver before deciding.

## How Lid Vizion approaches it

We start with the business decision and operating context, define ownership and measurable milestones, then use configuration, integrations, automation, or custom software only where each earns its place.
