The status quo

Freight shouldn't cost you the load — or the visibility.

Three things go wrong with freight, and they go wrong the same way at every desk in the country. None of them are your team's fault. All of them are fixable.

The no-show nobody saw coming

The carrier doesn't show, and nobody knows until the dock calls. The afternoon turns into phone tag, the appointment slips, and the customer hears about it before you do.

The loss that surfaces on the invoice

Loads re-tendered at spot. Detention and accessorials you never saw coming. A number somebody else can see and you can’t — until the bill arrives.

The upgrade that holds you hostage

Modernizing means a rip-and-replace migration, a project to fund, and a vendor you can't get back out of once the data's inside.

Operational excellence

Every load, watched end to end.

A desk that watches every load at once, never forgets a follow-up, and never clocks out — so your team stops chasing status and runs the business. It covers the loose ends; a human signs before anything irreversible.

QUOTE IN SECONDS

Quoted in seconds, with a real capacity read

A rate estimate and a capacity-probability score, side by side, in seconds — so you commit to coverage that actually exists, not hope.

EMAIL + SMS ALERTS

Dispatched and tracked at every milestone

Carrier confirmed, in transit, delivered, exception — every milestone tracked, and you hear about it by email or SMS the moment status changes. No status to chase.

FMCSA + 45-PATTERN SCREEN

Vetted before any rate-con

Every carrier is checked against FMCSA authority and safety data and screened against a 45-point fraud-pattern library before we book — with deeper third-party verification (Highway, Carrier411) layered in as we enable it. We vet before we book.

NOTHING MISSED

Loose ends covered, so nothing is missed

The follow-up that always slipped, the exception that surfaced too late, the reconcile nobody got to — covered, quietly, every time. The desk doesn’t forget.

The shift

Old way vs Throughline way

Same freight. Same lanes. Same TMS. Everything that used to cost you the load — or the budget line — moved to the other column.

Old way
  • Chase status by phone
  • Hope the carrier shows
  • Margin you never see
  • Per-seat bill + monthly minimum
  • Rip-and-replace your TMS
  • Vendor lock-in
Throughline way
  • Status comes to you, in your TMS
  • Carrier vetted before the rate-con
  • Your rate, shown on the record
  • $0 platform, no per-seat fee
  • Keep your TMS, layer coverage on top
  • Leave anytime, no data hostage

This is how the fair-use model is structured — usage past a generous monthly threshold is billed at transparent cost-plus, openly. Most accounts never reach the first marker.

Transparency

An audit trail you can hand to your CFO.

100% audit coverage. Every decision and every action on your freight is logged to a complete, reproducible record — load by load, nothing in the dark, and yours to get for any load and hand straight to your CFO.

100% audit coverage

Every decision and action on your freight is logged to a complete, reproducible audit trail — not a summary after the fact, the full record, and it's yours for any load.

A complete record on every load

Ask for any load's full record and get it fast — the complete decision-and-action trail, built to hand straight to your CFO or auditor. No black box, no runaround.

Your rate, on the record

The price you pay is in the record, not buried in a statement at month-end. Transparency turned into the trust play.

Vetting shown, not claimed

FMCSA authority + safety checks and the 45-point fraud screen land in the record as ticks you can read — authority transfer, not self-assertion.

Carrier vetting

We vet the carrier before the rate-con — not after.

Fraud and double-brokering are the freight world's quiet tax. We move the check to before the commitment, and we ground the check in FMCSA's own authority and safety data, so the trust isn't ours to assert — it's on the record to confirm.

Vetted before we book — not after.

Every carrier is checked against FMCSA authority and safety data and screened against a 45-point fraud-pattern library before we book — with deeper third-party verification (Highway, Carrier411) layered in as we enable it. We vet before we book.

48-hour cooling on any banking change

Change a carrier's banking detail and a 48-hour cooling period starts — the single most common path for a payment-diversion fraud, closed by design.

48h cooling

Negotiation never weakens vetting.

No rip-and-replace
