What is tCAD?
tCAD is a full-featured Computer-Aided Dispatch and Mobile Data Terminal built for FiveM roleplay communities. It covers live dispatch, law enforcement, fire/EMS, civilian, judicial, and admin panels in one platform.
Every community that signs up gets its own organization — an isolated tenant with its own members, roles, agencies, and data. Nothing is shared between organizations.
Members sign in with Discord OAuth. There are no separate passwords to manage or reset.
Quick Start
Sign in with Discord
Head to /auth/login and authorize with Discord. New accounts are sent straight into onboarding.
Create or join an organization
During onboarding you'll either create a new organization (pick a name — a URL slug like /app/your-org is generated automatically) or join an existing one if a staff member gave you an invite link or organization slug.
Set up your profile
Add an avatar and a short bio. This is what other members see next to your name on the call board, roster, and reports.
Go on duty
Once inside /app/<organization-slug>, switch to the panel for your role — Dispatch, LEO, Fire/EMS, or Civilian — and set your duty status. Units that are off duty don't appear on the dispatch map or call board.
Staff can invite members directly from the Admin panel's Roster page instead of sharing the raw organization slug — see Dispatch & LEO for the roles and permissions model.
Roles & Permissions
Access to every panel and action is controlled by your organization's role configuration:
- 55+ granular permissions split across staff and operational categories
- Admins create custom roles per organization and assign permissions individually — there's no fixed rank hierarchy baked into the platform
- Every write action (report edits, warrant recalls, roster changes) is recorded in the audit trail
