Our Digital Freight Network is expanding to include cross-border freight with Canada! 🇨🇦 With the expansion of our network we can provide shippers with broader access to high-quality carriers, including owner operators and smaller fleets. Details: ow.ly/XV0E50zm0uv
Today, we announced another first in the trucking industry: 100% automated brokering in top freight markets. This milestone enables us to operate more efficiently, reducing costs for shippers & making it easier for carriers to keep their trucks full. ow.ly/7qPP50xD95t
I’ve had an amazing journey at #Convoy trying to revolutionize transportation market by leveraging graph algorithms. Learn more here. medium.com/convoy-tech/al…
