See Every Shipment, in Real Time — No More Chasing Down Answers
The Tranztec platform ensures you're no longer waiting for a phone call or email to know where your freight is. With real-time visibility into load status, location, and ETA from every connected carrier and broker, you always know exactly where your shipments stand from pickup to final delivery. No more juggling portals or playing phone tag just to answer the question "where's my truck?"
Faster Rates, Faster Decisions
Because carriers and brokers on our network share rate data directly, you get quicker access to competitive pricing without the back-and-forth of manual quote requests. That means faster decisions, faster bookings, and more time spent running your business instead of chasing quotes.
Paperwork That Takes Care of Itself
BOLs, invoices, and supporting documentation move automatically between you and your carriers and brokers. Instead of manually collecting paperwork or waiting on emailed PDFs, your documents are ready and accessible the moment they're generated — cutting down on delays, lost paperwork, and billing disputes.
Fewer Surprises, More Control
With shared exception reporting, you're alerted the moment something goes off plan — whether that is a delay, a missed appointment, or a route change. That means you can act on problems before they affect your customers, rather than explaining them after the damage is done.
One Connected Network, Instead of a Dozen Disconnected Relationships
Ultimately, Tranztec will help you replace a patchwork of emails, calls, and siloed systems with a single connected ecosystem. Every carrier and broker you work with feeds into the same source of truth, so your team spends less time reconciling information and more time making decisions.
Frequently asked questions
Do we need a TMS to use Tranztec?
No — that's the point. Tranztec connects you to your carriers' and brokers' systems directly, so you can meet their EDI requirements and pull shipment status without standing up or maintaining a full transportation management system. If you already run a TMS, the same connector library plugs into it instead.
Can we get visibility on LTL freight?
Yes. The connector directory includes an LTL carrier network covering carriers such as Estes, Old Dominion, SAIA, Dayton Freight, FedEx, UPS, and XPO, alongside visibility platforms like project44, FourKites, and Descartes MacroPoint. See the full list by category in the connections directory.
Can we book loads and pull documents through an API?
Yes. CarrierCloud, Tranztec's Universal Transportation API, lets customers and shippers book transportation orders into the Partner Network, create quotes for tentative shipments, follow loads with live GPS positions, and pull order documents — over REST with an OpenAPI reference and a sandbox to build against.
What does handling EDI 'in-house' mean?
With Tranzactor, your team processes EDI transactions directly instead of paying recurring per-transaction VAN fees, and maps between EDI and API formats on the same toolkit. It's built for organizations that want developer-level control of their integration layer.
How do we estimate the savings before talking to sales?
The self-serve Connectivity ROI Estimator models three costs — manual exception-handling hours, separate point tools, and per-connection EDI/VAN overhead — from conservative, illustrative assumptions. Adjust the sliders to your shipment volumes and see the annual figure before anyone contacts you.
