Complexity becomes Simplicity
We turn data chaos into clear, actionable command.
The Origin Story
Mantis was started by Alex, an experienced On-Site Manager (OSM) who spent years moonlighting as a software developer. Working across multiple DSPs, he noticed the same patterns: universal problems, shared frustrations, and a reliance on manual processes that couldn't scale.
Naturally, the solution was automation. What started as a set of tools to automate his own job has evolved—powered by modern AI—into a platform that fine-tunes driver trends, explains behaviors, and fixes problems before they escalate.
Amazon is weaving AI into the fabric of their entire operation. It is time for DSPs to do the same. Most third-party tools available are glorified rota management systems or filing cabinets for documents with labels... boring.
The Intelligence Layer
Mantis is different. It’s the intelligence layer that turns raw Amazon and driver data into meaningful, actionable insight. Instead of just crunching numbers, Mantis inspects every datapoint down to the granular level, weighs the impact of each error, and quantifies exactly how it affects the overall score.
From there, it translates complexity into simple, clear actions that anyone can understand and follow. When an OSM can see the true impact behind each action — the “why” as well as the “what” — they become far more motivated, because they realise their management decisions genuinely move the needle.
In that sense, Mantis isn’t just a data-processing tool. It’s a driver for excellence — a motivator for perfection.
People Skills > Spreadsheets
The most powerful side of Mantis is that it enables DSPs to choose their On-Site Managers based on people skills, not Excel skills.
The perfect OSM is someone who can get buy-in from their drivers—infinite loyalty and respect. But it's an unfair world: you can have an OSM with amazing leadership qualities who struggles to make a formula or display data in a way drivers can absorb.
Mantis bridges that gap. We put everything at their fingertips so they don't have to be data scientists to pull top-tier performance from the driver pool.
Always Watching, Always There
Too many times, we've seen DSPs get busier and busier, leading to less presence in the office, in the WhatsApp groups, and in response times to drivers. When an OSM is busy on the road, things get missed.
Mantis gives you an always-watching, always-monitoring system. It supports your team when they are stretched thin, ensuring that standards never slip and every driver gets the attention they need.
