Since 2020, the MileageWise mileage tracker app and desktop dashboard combination has been available.
In 2025, MileageWise launched its Mileage Log from Google Maps app, adapting to shifts in how Google Timeline data is maintained.
The MileageWise team started with RoadRecord in 2001 and has since progressed from Windows-only software to integrated mobile and web platforms designed for business drivers.
Our journey of solving mileage-log challenges began in 2001. Over the last 25 years, technology has evolved repeatedly, but our mission remains unchanged: make mileage record-keeping easier for drivers.”— Akos Barazsy, CEO of MileageWise
SARASOTA, FL, UNITED STATES, August 31, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — The group behind MileageWise is commemorating 25 years of creating mileage-log products. The effort began with RoadRecord in 2001, an era when mileage logging was largely a desktop-based administrative chore.
Over time, the team has evolved its offerings through multiple technological generations. Nowadays, MileageWise assists drivers in capturing current trips and generating mileage logs for prior periods using available travel data—a methodology refined by decades of addressing genuine customer needs.
1. Origins: From Windows Software to Mobile and Web Solutions
When the group entered this field in 2001, mileage-tracking apps did not exist. RoadRecord was designed to meet a real-world requirement: helping business drivers organize their mileage records more effectively.
As technology and user behavior transformed, so did the product. By 2013, the team had built mobile applications for Android, iOS, and Windows Phone. A web-based online dashboard arrived in 2018, offering users a more adaptable means of reviewing, editing, and finalizing their mileage logs.
In 2020, the team brought its expertise to the U.S. market under the MileageWise brand. By 2025, it had also introduced its Google Maps Timeline -powered mileage-log solution on mobile devices.
“We started solving mileage-log problems in 2001.” said Akos Barazsy, founder and CEO of MileageWise. “The technology has changed repeatedly over the past 25 years, but our purpose is the same: make mileage documentation more manageable for drivers.”
2. A Discovery: The Gap in Ongoing Mileage Tracking
Years of collaboration with drivers uncovered a challenge that continuous mileage tracking alone couldn’t address. People frequently delay recording their business trips until tax season, an audit, a reimbursement deadline, or an accountant’s request makes those records urgent.
Installing a mileage tracker can assist from that day forward, but it cannot cover the months or years that have already elapsed. Consequently, the team started investigating how existing travel data might help drivers get caught up.
3. The Solution: Turning Past Travel Data Into Mileage Logs
This investigation resulted in MileageWise’s Google Timeline import process. The solution aids users in identifying car trips within their location history, arranging their drives, and completing the remaining steps needed to assemble a mileage log.
“Many people come to us because the trips have already happened and they need help making sense of the information they still have,” Barazsy said. “Tracking is important, but rescue is just as important.”
For customers who worry their mileage records might be lost, finding a workable path forward can offer more than just administrative convenience. It can provide relief during an otherwise stressful situation.
As the group behind MileageWise moves into its next phase, it stays committed to simplifying mileage documentation—whether drivers begin logging on time or require assistance catching up later.
