Free to run. Paid only when freight moves.
No platform fee. No per-seat fee. No monthly minimum. We earn the way a brokerage earns — standard margin on the loads we actually ship — plus a transparent metered cost-plus only past a generous monthly fair-use threshold. Most accounts never reach it. And any cost-plus is billed openly and transparently — never a surprise.
Two ways we earn. Neither hits your P&L as software.
There is no catch and no asterisk. Here is exactly how the business makes money — so the CFO can sign without a second meeting.
Brokerage margin on shipped loads
The same model every freight broker runs on: we buy the truck, we sell the load, the margin is the difference. The difference here is your rate is shown on the load instead of buried. You only pay when freight actually moves — no load, no charge.
Metered cost-plus past a generous threshold
Quoting, tracking, and tracing carry real compute cost. Past a generous monthly fair-use threshold, usage is billed at transparent cost-plus — not a markup on a markup. It keeps someone from hammering the quote endpoint as a free market-data API. Most accounts never reach the threshold.
A usage charge is never a surprise.
The fair-use model is built so a usage charge is never a surprise: usage past a generous monthly threshold is billed at transparent cost-plus, openly — something you decide on, not something you discover on an invoice.
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.
Pick the tier. The platform is free on all three.
Sign up and you have the whole platform from your first quote. Run spot loads with no per-seat fee. We earn on the brokerage margin in the loads we ship — plus metered cost-plus only past a generous monthly fair-use threshold.
- No per-seat fee, ever — You never pay per user — the platform is free at the seat level, dispatch to finance. No per-seat fee, ever.

- Quote in seconds with a real capacity read — A data-informed rate estimate beside a capacity-probability score, in seconds — commit to coverage that exists.
- An AI-assisted desk on the phones — Inbound carrier calls answered by AI, outreach drafted automatically, and a human desk on the line — so your team stops chasing trucks.
- Carriers vetted before any rate-con — FMCSA authority + safety and a 45-point fraud-pattern library before we book; Highway and Carrier411 layering in. Negotiation never weakens vetting.
- Milestones pushed to your TMS — Carrier confirmed, in-transit, delivered, exception — milestone events delivered to your TMS via webhook, set up with you.
- Generous fair-use threshold — Usage is billed at transparent cost-plus only past it — openly, never a surprise. Most Pilot accounts never reach it.

Everything in Pilot — plus commit your monthly volume and we price it back at a lower, transparent margin with priority capacity. A partnership, not a fee. The market still passes straight through, so neither of us is caught out when rates move. Fall below your commitment and you simply run as Pilot — measured on a trailing basis, never a single bad month.
- Commit volume, get a lower margin — Cost-plus a lower, transparent markup on your committed volume — not a locked price. The market passes through; your margin with us stays predictable.
- Contract terms + RFP / RFQ awards — Move your committed book, not just spot. Lane-level commitments and award terms for steady volume.
- Priority capacity — Forecastable volume earns first call on capacity for your freight. An effort guarantee, not a price bet.
- Commercial terms sized to your book + a contact you can reach — Fair-use and cost-plus terms sized to a real book and written into your agreement, plus a name, a number, and a recurring lane review.
- Soft floor, never a fine — Measured on a trailing 90-day average; dip below and you revert to a Pilot relationship. No shortfall fees, no lock-in.
Everything in Scale. The platform stays free — you never pay for access. A flat month-to-month service plan buys a named team that owns your book, better commercial terms across your freight written into your agreement, and priority response in writing. No load commitment, no lock-in.
- A named team that owns your book — An account manager and an ops pod, not a queue. They know your lanes, make the judgment calls, and work your freight before you ask.
- Better commercial terms, in writing — A managed account runs on better, contracted commercial terms across your freight — written into your agreement, not a quota game. The relationship, not a slider.
- Priority support, in writing — Front of the line with SLA-backed response times. A human on a contracted clock when a load is on fire.
- Proactive lane + rate work — Recurring lane reviews, rate negotiation on your contract book, capacity planning for your specific lanes.
- The platform stays $0 — Same free platform as Pilot, top to bottom. You pay for the team and the rate — never for the software.
- Procurement-ready when you need it — Optional dedicated infra, contracted SLA, and MSA + DPA + sub-processor review for top-100 shippers.

The questions finance and procurement ask first.
Two streams. Most loads pay us through the standard brokerage margin — what we buy the truck at versus what we sell the load at, the model every freight broker runs on. The platform itself is metered cost-plus only past a generous monthly fair-use threshold; most accounts never come close, and any cost-plus is billed openly and transparently — never a surprise on the invoice.
There isn't a hidden one. No platform fee, no per-seat fee, no monthly minimum, no migration to fund, and no lock-in on the way out. We make money when your freight moves, and we charge transparent cost-plus only if you run past the fair-use threshold. If your freight doesn't move, we don't get paid.
No. Usage past your fair-use threshold is billed at transparent cost-plus, shown openly — never an auto-charge in the dark. On Enterprise the threshold and any cost-plus rate are written into your MSA. You see a charge coming, not a surprise.
Yes. The cockpit is additive, not a replacement — we keep your TMS in the loop by delivering milestone and carrier events via webhook, set up with you. No rip-and-replace, no data hostage, leave anytime.
Five specific actions require a human signature before they happen — dispatch authorization, banking changes, and more. The system queues the work and never clocks out, but a person clicks before anything irreversible. Money never moves unattended.
100% audit coverage means every decision and action on a load is logged to a complete, reproducible record — and you can get any load’s full record on request and hand it to your CFO, your board, or your auditor. The deeper platform controls live on /security.
Run one real lane. Read the whole trail.
Free to use, no per-seat fee, keep your TMS, carriers vetted before the rate-con, a human on every irreversible step, your rate shown, and an audit you can verify on every load. There's almost nothing to lose by piloting — and your first quote is seconds away.
