Odoo Freight Brokerage Platform (Carrier & Forwarder)
We build freight brokerage platforms that automate matching, pricing, and settlement in one operational system.
See How We Build for Complex BusinessesFreight brokers sit at the center of shipper demand and carrier capacity. When this coordination relies on calls, spreadsheets, and paperwork, speed drops and errors increase. As volumes grow, manual brokerage workflows become a hard limit on scale.
Who This Is For
We usually work best with teams who know building software is more than just shipping code.
This is for teams who:
Freight brokers moving away from manual processes
Asset-light brokerage firms
Freight forwarders running brokerage operations
Logistics companies scaling shipper and carrier volumes
This may not fit for:
Single-shipper internal transport teams
Brokers with very low shipment volume
Teams looking for basic load boards only
Short-term pilots without process ownership
the real problem
Manual brokerage workflows do not scale with freight volume
Many brokers manage loads, carriers, rates, and settlements across disconnected tools. Capacity is hard to see, negotiations take too long, trips are difficult to track, and billing becomes a bottleneck. Shippers lack transparency, and brokers spend time coordinating instead of optimizing lanes and margins.
how this is usually solved
(and why it breaks)
common approaches
Load matching via calls and spreadsheets
Rates negotiated manually each time
Trip tracking done through follow-ups
Billing and settlement handled outside core systems
Where these approaches fall short
Slow load assignments and missed capacity
Inconsistent pricing and margin leakage
Poor visibility for shippers
High manual effort in billing and settlements
