Illustrative workflow narrative

Our drivers were running empty 35% of the time because dispatch was building routes by gut feel and nobody was tracking backhaul opportunities. ThunderStaff built a load matching system that matches empty trucks to available freight by lane, rate, and equipment type, auto-generates rate confirmations, and tracks backhaul fill rate by driver. Empty miles dropped to 18%. We added $280K in annual revenue without buying a single new truck.
