CleanShotHQ LLC is a trucking software company based in Salem, New Jersey. We build road intelligence tools for OTR truck drivers, owner-operators, and fleets — no ads, no sponsors, no compromises.
CleanShot was born from a belief: that the 3.5 million professionals who move this country deserve better tools than the market has given them. Existing weather apps are designed for the average consumer. They're full of ads, burn background data, and fail exactly when you need them most — in a dead zone at 2am on a mountain corridor.
We asked: what if we built something from scratch, specifically for a truck driver? No ads cluttering the screen when you need clear information fast. No megabyte data burns on a capped plan. No generic 'snow in your area' alerts — but real black ice detection, bridge freeze, diesel gel, calculated from live weather data for your exact location.
The answer was CleanShot. Every feature we add, every data source we integrate, every language we support — it is all in service of one goal: bringing you home safe.
Driving a tractor-trailer across 4 million miles of road in every weather condition imaginable requires a level of skill, judgment, and responsibility that most people will never understand. We build tools that respect that. No condescending interfaces. No oversimplification. Real information, delivered with clarity.
Ads create conflicts of interest. A sponsored data provider might influence which alerts you see. A promoted rest stop might not be the safest one. When you're making critical safety decisions at 70 mph, the last thing you need is for someone to have paid your app to influence what you see. CleanShot is 100% subscription-funded. Full stop.
An app that takes 8 seconds to load isn't just frustrating — it's dangerous. An app that hangs on 2G is useless in the one moment you need it most. We engineered CleanShot to run on kilobytes, not megabytes, on low-signal networks where other apps give up. Under 3 seconds on any network we support. If data isn't available, we say so clearly.
Your route history is not our product. Your HOS patterns are not a dataset to sell. Your location is not an ad signal. We never sell, share, or monetize driver data with third parties, advertisers, or data brokers. We never have. We never will.
Millions of professional truck drivers in North America speak Spanish or French as a first language. Every alert, label, menu, and voice in CleanShot is available in English, Spanish, and French — with Punjabi coming next. Not a second-class feature: built from day one, tested in every language before every release.
We test all 50 states before every release. A crash on the road isn't a low-priority bug — it's a safety issue. We'd rather ship late and right than fast and broken. When something doesn't work the way it should, we say so directly, fix it, and tell you what changed.
CleanShotHQ LLC was founded by R. Bruce McCarthy in Salem, New Jersey. We are a small, deliberate operation — not a Silicon Valley startup looking to scale at any cost. We have no investors pressuring us to monetize your attention. We have no sales team calling you. We have no affiliate program incentivizing reviewers to recommend us regardless of whether we're the right tool for you.
We have drivers as customers, and that is enough. Every subscription dollar goes directly to improving the product, maintaining the infrastructure, and answering support email. That is how a tools company should work.
