Needs right now

Domestic freight brokerages moving 10+ loads a week that want their back office handled; introductions to brokers and freight operators; and pre-seed investors who understand logistics.

The pitch

Freight brokerage runs on communication.

A small brokerage spends most of its day reading emails and texts, pricing quotes, chasing updates and retyping load details into its TMS. That overhead, not a lack of demand, is what stops a small brokerage from moving more freight. Transpira takes that work off their plate. It plugs into the broker's inbox, messages and back-office tools, understands each request against the broker's real data, and drafts the response or the data entry so a person only has to approve it. We did customer discovery across the supply chain, from warehouses to truck drivers to brokers, before narrowing to this problem. Today four brokerages pay for Transpira, and we're building it in Atlanta, one of the country's biggest logistics hubs.

Problem

Small domestic freight brokerages can't take on more loads because their back office is buried in scattered communication: quote requests, updates and carrier questions spread across email, text and WhatsApp, plus manual load entry into their TMS. Most of that work is done by hand.

Solution

Transpira connects to a brokerage's email, messages and back-office systems, reads each incoming request, checks it against the broker's own load and rate data, and drafts the quote, reply or data entry for a person to approve. The problems every brokerage shares work out of the box; the rest is tailored to each customer's workflow.

Progress so far

A paid waitlist for the next customers.
