http://www.opengts.org http://www.opengts.org build your own if you want. Works with android phones or IoT devices if you want to do some integration work. Also supports things like boundary areas (get alerts if a thing being tracked enters / leaves a defined area). Works with open street maps to around the GMaps ToS stuff about tracking mentioned elsewhere. I forget the name of the android app which sends the location pings to this but it's a thing. Re: Automatic, it's slightly different. Automatic connects via Bluetooth to your phone to periodically upload batch data. This seems like it could be more useful for fleet management. Automatic is more tailored to consumers who are more concerned with e.g. Where did I park, maximizing gas mileage, tracking a teen driver, driving more smoothly, gas costs, etc. automatic can also read and reset DTC (diagnostic trouble codes) and e.g. Pop an iOS notification when you're low on gas. Yes it's $100 (or $70-80 on sale) but it does a lot more, doesn't require a dedicated phone, and tucks away out of sight under your dashboard. It's a pretty slick little gadget. I have them on 2 vehicles.
