What PTTR gives each part of the freight chain.
Brokers, shippers, carriers, dispatchers and drivers each have their own tools on one platform. Find yours below.

- Book, track and manage every load
- Share and sign rate confirmations
What you get
- Carrier credibility at the point of decision

Find freight worth hauling.
Carriers move freight under their own authority. PTTR helps them find matching loads, see who is posting them, bid or book, and keep the paperwork in step.
What you can do
- Search and filter live loads
- Bid on or book freight
- Assign a truck and a driver
- Track loads and send invoices
What you get
- Broker credibility before you commit
- Loads matched to your fleet and saved searches
- Invoice and payment status you can follow
The same account, working for more trucks.
Dispatch is an extension of the carrier workflow, not a separate product. Dispatchers arrange freight for their own fleet, or for other trucking companies they are connected to.
What you can do
- Arrange freight for your own fleet
- Act for other carriers you are connected to
- Work only within the access each carrier grants
What you get
- Every action recorded against the company you acted for
- Access a carrier can revoke at any time
- An account that grows with your business
The trip, on the phone.
Drivers use the PTTR mobile app. It is a mobile-first role rather than a desktop portal.
What you can do
- Receive the load assigned to you
- Follow the trip and update its status
- Capture trip documents
What you get
- A simple view of the current assignment
- No desktop dashboard to learn
