Manual Freight Operations
Freight brokers, forwarders, and logistics teams run quoting, tracking, and customer follow-up manually across email, spreadsheets, and calls, causing errors, delays, and lost margin.
In their words
I'm relying on C411, SAFER, and RMIS for carrier vetting.
When the system is down or transmissions are backed up several times a week, it hurts us as brokers.
We are looking for a Cloud Based TMS solution that can handle our volume and workload.
The appointment slots in my region only become available during a very small time window each day, and they disappear incredibly fast
My insurance company gave a 20% discount when I used inward facing cameras
we've managed operations using a mix of spreadsheets, WhatsApp and I've reached a point where I want to build a proper ERP/TMS
We used to spend like 30-40 minutes matching a load. Now it's 8 minutes.
Answering phone calls every 5-10 minutes from several different departments about the current progress.

Freight brokers and forwarders
Where they talk
- r/FreightBrokers
- r/freightforwarding
- r/logistics
- r/FreightBrokerStartup
- r/SupplyChainLogistics
- r/Truckers
- r/supplychain
- r/smallbusiness
Tools they use today
- DAT
- Excel
- Highway
- Claude
- Magaya
- SAFER
- CargoWise
Why those fall short
- payment system rejects fuel card though it accepts same card as credit
- no single system; constant calls and manual tracking
- No way to verify broker responsiveness before giving freight
- teams email address changes instead of updating the ERP
- ETAs unreliable; port call order unknown until late; transit times shift monthly
