How it works

1

Send us your freight data

Any spreadsheet export from your TMS, accounting system or broker invoices works. We sign an NDA before you share anything.

2

We analyze every load, lane and broker

Each shipment is compared with what the same lane, the same week and other brokers cost you, so the findings come from your own numbers.

3

We walk you through what we found

You get a clear report and a call to go through it. You decide what to fix, and how.

What we look for

Most overspending on truckload freight is not one big mistake. It is many small ones that nobody has time to check.

  • Paying above your own best ratesLoads that cost well above what you already pay on the same lane in a normal week.
  • Last-minute and late-week premiumsFreight booked the day before pickup, or shipped on a Thursday or Friday, that costs more than it needs to.
  • Brokers charging more on the same lanesOne broker billing noticeably more than the others for the same freight.
  • Duplicate billsThe same load invoiced twice, which can be recovered.
  • Fuel surcharges and accessorialsFuel, detention and lumper charges above what they should be.
Our guarantee

At least $10,000 in savings found, or the audit is free.

We take the risk. If your last 12 months of truckload freight does not show at least $10,000 in savings, the audit costs you nothing.

  • Building materials

After the audit: ongoing freight spend monitoring is available, so new overcharges are caught as they happen.

Questions

Is my data safe?

We sign an NDA before you share anything. Your data is stored privately and is never shared or sold.

What data do you need?

Any export of last year's truckload invoices. It should include dates, origins, destinations, carriers or brokers, and cost.

Will this affect my broker relationships?

No. We show you the numbers, and you decide what to change.

How long does it take?

About a week after we receive your file.

What does it cost?

The audit is complimentary unless we find at least $10,000 in savings. We will go over the details on a call.

A 15-minute call is enough to tell whether an audit makes sense for you.
