    The idea

    An AI carrier-selection audit trail product that, at the moment of booking, automatically pulls and timestamps FMCSA safety ratings, insurance certificates, and carrier performance history, then generates a structured per-load carrier-selection justification record stored alongside the load file. Built for brokers who need defensible documentation… Bought by Freight Brokerage Owner / President, typically Independent or regional brokerage, $5M–$75M gross revenue, 5–50 dispatchers.

    The pain

    Sourced

    The May 2026 Supreme Court ruling strips brokers of their FAAAA preemption shield. Brokers will now defend negligent-selection claims through full discovery, meaning every carrier booking decision needs a documented, auditable justification — something most TMS systems do not provide today.
