How it works

Three steps. We do the heavy lifting.

01

We onboard you

We handle EDI mapping, platform setup, TMS assessment if needed, and trading partner go-live. You sign off, we execute.

02

You accept loads

Tenders arrive, you click accept or decline. We handle everything behind it — including ELD integration so status updates go out automatically.

03

We keep you compliant

We monitor your scorecard metrics, manage your trading partners, and get on calls with your brokers when something needs explaining.

Who we help

Built for two sides of the load.

For carriers

You run 5–30 trucks.

You want more dedicated contracts. You don't want to hire an IT person or figure out what a 204 is. We handle all of it — you just accept the loads.

For brokers

Your carriers keep dropping loads over EDI failures.

Refer them to Tendr. We get them compliant, we monitor their scorecard health, and we get on calls with you when their numbers need explaining. Your carrier network performs better. Your shipper clients stay happy.

Why Tendr

Freight people, doing freight tech right.

Flat fee

No per-transaction billing. No VAN charges passed through. One number, clearly scoped, no surprises.

Scorecard management

We monitor the metrics that determine whether you keep your contracts — and we flag problems before your shipper does.

Human first

When something breaks or a broker has questions, we pick up the phone. You don't face it alone.
