VDA vA — Support
VDA vA ActiveAero ONLY (Virtual Dispatch Assist) – helps dispatchers and owner-operators quickly spot the loads they care about on supported freight portal pages—without constantly re-scanning the screen.
What it does
- Scans load rows/cards on the page and detects origin (FROM) and destination (TO) text when available, with a smart fallback for generic tables/lists/cards.
- Highlights matching rows/fields with clear visual cues (red outline) so you can instantly see what triggered.
Three matching modes (automatic priority)
- Radius mode (highest priority): if Radius filtering is enabled, matching is based on distance—not keywords.
- FROM/TO keyword mode: matches FROM keywords against origin only and TO keywords against destination only (both must match when both are provided).
- General keywords (ANY mode): used only when both FROM and TO keyword fields are empty—keywords apply to the entire row text.
Two independent radius filters (Radius #1 and Radius #2)
- Each has its own center location, miles, and whether it applies to FROM or TO.
- If both are configured, a row must satisfy both (AND logic).
- Uses air-distance (haversine) with a practical tolerance factor to reduce false misses.
Telegram alerts (optional)
- When a row matches, the extension can send a formatted message to your Telegram.
- Messages include a site header and a short tag for the match type (Radius / ANY).
Audio + badge feedback
- Plays a short beep when matches are found (capped to avoid noise).
- Updates the extension badge count with how many rows triggered in the last scan.
Smart throttling to prevent spam
- Each unique matching row is rate-limited (per page/tab) so you don’t get repeated alerts as the page refreshes.
Auto-Login (optional)
- An optional “Auto-Login” mode can assist with signing in on ActiveAero by automatically filling login fields and completing the login step when you choose to enable it.
How it works (in plain terms)
- You set keywords, FROM/TO terms, optional radius centers, and optional Telegram settings in the popup.
- The extension scans the page on load, when the tab becomes visible, and periodically.
- When something matches, it highlights the row and (optionally) sends you a Telegram notification.
