One system instead of chats, spreadsheets and paper: from a client request to the act and payment. Dispatch board, billing, driver payroll, e-signature of carrier contracts and real P&L.
01
A TMS is needed when the operation and its economics have outgrown spreadsheets, email and accounting software.
Requests, statuses and documents are scattered across Telegram, email and spreadsheets — no one sees the whole week's board.
Client rate, carrier pay, fuel, driver extras — all in different places, and profit shows only at month end.
Rate confirmations, carrier contracts, invoices, acts, CMR/BOL are prepared by copy-paste and signed by email.
Payroll, advances, batch payments of several carriers' invoices in one cheque — a monthly headache.
Loads are consolidated at a warehouse and transloaded, and "where is this pallet now" keeps getting lost.
Ready solutions ignore your rates, currencies, stages and documents — and the team works "next to" them.
02
Modules from our TMS platform for a freight company and a logistics finance module. We compose them around your operation.
Requests and dispatch board
Weekly board per dispatcher, statuses, auto-numbering, load types, quick search.
Trips and execution stages
Loading, in transit, delivered, cross-dock — with actual dates, delays and notifications.
Carriers and drivers
Profiles, documents, insurance, ratings, read-only carrier view and a driver cabinet.
Billing and PDF documents
Invoices, rate confirmations, acts generated from trip data. Payment statuses and reminders.
E-signature
Carrier onboarding and rate confirmation signing via a public link — no email or scans.
Payroll and batch payments
Driver pay, advances, one payment for several carriers' invoices, AP for cross-dock vendors.
Finance and P&L
Revenue, carrier costs, general expenses, net profit per trip, client, month.
Warehouse and planner
Inbound loads, consolidation, shipment planning, 3D trailer load planner.
Telegram notifications
Trip events, daily digests, warehouse bots, two-factor login — where the team already is.

Live systems our clients use every day. Company names are anonymised by agreement.
Built a dispatch platform from scratch: weekly board, billing workflow with PDF invoices, payroll module, ApexCharts dashboard, cross-dock management and PRO# autofill.
A Kanban planner builds trailers from warehouse loads by pallets, spots and weight; BOL scans from the warehouse scanner land in the system by themselves; the warehouse gets Telegram posts about arrivals and outbound trips.
A finance layer for a freight company’s TMS: a P&L waterfall with Net Profit, batch payment of multiple carriers’ invoices with one check, cross-dock vendor payables and overhead expense tracking.
An in-house e-signature engine instead of DocuSign: carriers sign the Broker-Carrier Agreement and Rate Confirmation from their phone via a token link. FPDI stamping over the PDF, 3 signing methods, audit trail.
04
We walk the request from client to payment: who does what and when, which documents appear at each step.
We describe rates, currencies, extras, payroll formulas, margin rules — what boxed TMSs don't have.
Dispatchers start working in the system within 3–4 weeks. Old spreadsheets run in parallel until we switch them off.
Finance modules added one by one, reconciled with accounting on last month's real trips.
GPS, telephony, Telegram, e-signature, accounting, load boards — by spec priority.
Team training, procedures, 30 days of fixes, then new modules as you grow.
05
Pricing
from $2,999
The first TMS stage (requests, board, trips, basic documents) — from $2,999. A full platform with billing, payroll, e-signature and finance — $10,000–25,000 in stages. Free analysis before start.
06
We pick the stack for the task and your team, not the other way round. Code and data are fully yours.
07
A TMS (Transportation Management System) manages transport operations: requests, trips, carriers, documents, settlements and margin. It replaces spreadsheets and chats with one loop for dispatchers, accounting and the owner.
Deeper dive
Imagine one screen where the dispatcher sees all the week's trips, each with a status, documents, carrier and rate, and accounting sees what to invoice and whom to pay. The owner sees margin per trip today, not a month later. That's a TMS.
Client request → rate and calculation → assigning a carrier or own driver → rate confirmation and signature → loading → in transit (GPS, statuses) → delivery and POD → client invoice → carrier payment → trip closed with margin. At each stage the system knows who's responsible and what's next.
Rate confirmation, carrier contract, BOL/CMR, invoices, acts, carrier invoices. A TMS generates them from trip data, stores signed versions and reminds what's missing. E-signature removes print, scan and email.
Client revenue minus carrier pay, fuel, cross-dock and company overhead = net profit. We built a finance module where P&L matches KPIs to the cent, and batch payments close several carriers' invoices with one cheque.
If you have several rates and currencies, your own driver settlement logic, specific documents or an operation "scattered" across several tools — boxed solutions won't replicate your rules. A custom TMS is built around them.
