Thin Line brings TLETS into the platform Texas agencies already use
LUBBOCK, Texas, October 27, 2026. Thin Line Software today announced that TLETS support is live in the Thin Line public-safety platform. Agencies can now run driver license and vehicle queries from inside Thin Line, and the results connect directly to the Thin Line master records. Thin Line implemented the integration with the Crosby County Sheriff's Office.
What's live today
Driver license and vehicle queries are available now. Officers, deputies and dispatchers send a query from the screen they're already working in, and the response comes back in Thin Line, so they don't have to switch to a separate terminal application and retype what they see. Criminal history queries are next on the roadmap.
Results that land in the record
A TLETS response isn't a dead end on a screen. Results integrate with the Thin Line master records, so the person and vehicle information your staff pulls up connects to the same records used across calls, reports, citations and cases. That means less double entry and fewer transcription errors, and the information is easier to trust when it matters later.
Built into the core platform
TLETS isn't a bolt-on module or a second login. It's part of the core Thin Line platform, so it works across the whole system, including CAD, RMS and mobile. Dispatch can run a plate during a call, and an officer can check a license during a stop, using the same integration and the same records.
Implemented with Crosby County Sheriff's Office
Thin Line built and brought the integration live alongside the Crosby County Sheriff's Office, testing against real workflows in dispatch and in the field before launch.
Who can use it now
TLETS in Thin Line is available today to agencies that are already TLETS terminal agencies. Support for non-terminal agencies, which reach TLETS through an interagency agreement with a terminal agency, is coming soon. If your agency accesses TLETS through another agency today, talk to us about timing.
What your agency handles with DPS
TLETS is administered by the Texas Department of Public Safety, and access runs through your agency's own relationship with DPS. That includes your agency's TLETS agreement and audits, your Terminal Agency Coordinator, and certification for your operators. Thin Line works within those requirements, and Thin Line staff with access sign the CJIS Security Addendum. We'll work with your TAC through setup so the move to Thin Line fits the way your agency already operates.
Licensing
TLETS is licensed by agency, not by user, so adding dispatchers or officers doesn't raise the cost. Ask us how it fits your agency's current license.
What's next
Criminal history queries are coming next, followed by support for non-terminal agencies. We'll announce each one here as it goes live.
