How It Works
One complete shipment, from the customer's first email to the driver's release. LoadControl prepares every step; your broker approves the ones that matter.
- 1Customer email
A rate request arrives — "15x31x30, 6 pieces, CA to SC". LoadControl reads it, extracts the dims, weight, lane, and deadline, and asks for anything missing.
- 2AI prepares the quote
The freight is matched to the smallest equipment it actually fits — cargo van, sprinter, box truck, or straight truck — and a suggested client rate is built from live carrier offers plus your margin.
- 3Broker approvalBroker approves
Your broker reviews the prepared quote — the rate, the equipment, the reasoning — and approves it before anything reaches the customer. Pricing stays human.
- 4Load posting
A DAT / Sylectus posting is drafted with the exact equipment, pickup time, and required delivery time — ready for one click of approval.
- 5Carrier offers
Inbound offers flood in by email. Each one is parsed, screened, and ranked as it arrives — one sorted board instead of a flooded inbox.
- 6Carrier verification
Before any award: MC/DOT and license photos, empty-truck photos inside and out, TWIC if required, Carrier411 cross-reference, confirmed ETA to pickup, and acceptance of GPS tracking for the entire load.
- 7DispatchBroker approves
Your broker awards the freight and dispatches the carrier. Carrier selection and dispatch are always broker decisions.
- 8Tracking
The driver's phone reports location to your dashboard until delivery. ETA updates are drafted for the customer on your cadence — no check calls.
- 9Pickup
Loaded freight photos and paperwork are collected at the dock before the driver is confirmed good to go.
- 10Delivery
The driver is guided to the correct unload area. Unloaded freight photos and the signed POD are required before anything closes.
- 11Documents
BOL, POD, and photos are chased by text or email and attached to the load — before the driver disappears.
- 12CloseoutClient approves
The POD goes to the client, the client confirms release — and only then is the driver told they're good to leave. The load closes with a complete record.
Every load always knows what happens next
Every shipment moves through a tracked lifecycle — you always know exactly where a load stands, what's blocking it, and who needs to respond.
