Simply put, the trucking industry is broken.
Truck drivers are the backbone of the American economy. They move 71% of our freight (~$800bn annually) and make up 6% of the American workforce.
But because the industry is so fragmented, opaque, and structurally misaligned, truck drivers end up spending a lot of time and money just to access the information they need to keep their businesses running.
At every turn, truck drivers and owner-operators face unnecessary challenges that take up their valuable time and money.

We’re building a one-stop shop for truck drivers and owner-operators. This means one place to build, manage, and grow their businesses through our powerful suite of tools.
One place for drivers to find the best loads fast and book them first—for free.
Drivers can find and reserve fuel discounts and save $1000s a year.
We pay drivers instantly upon approval for rates as low as 2.5%.
The landscape is structurally fragmented
driving many of the inefficiencies we see today.
Over the last 5 years, the trucking industry has become increasingly digitized. In fact, app downloads from the largest freight companies have grown 680% since 2017.
Shippers contract brokers to oversee the delivery of their goods
New tech made it easier for independent businesses, both owner-operators and brokers, to enter the market, resulting in an increase in drivers moving loads through thousands of small brokers – each with their own apps.
However, the small percentage of Big Players in this industry still control much of the information with zero incentive to share. This means today’s owner-operator needs dozens of apps and subscriptions to do their job every day.
