Jobsite Companion offers a simple solution to complex workflows
With voice commands, simple attachment optimization, and a built-in job cost dashboard, Jobsite Companion helps operators maintain focus on equipment controls while streamlining machine interaction and reducing complexity, representing a significant evolution in how operators interact with their machines.
"Jobsite Companion was developed to help operators get more out of every job by making machine operation simpler and more intuitive," said Scott Johnson, senior director of construction products at Bobcat.
