Company Summary

With over 13 years’ in trucking, we know 80% of trucking fleets suffer from chronic underutilization of assets. Existing tools are too narrowly focused. The result: a lot of tools, manual calculations/calls & missed opportunities. We gather data on the engine, GPS, driver hours & preferences. Our algorithms match & allocate available drivers to loads on 3rd party load-board system with a button click, improving utilization & profits from 4% to 15
