Hey Product Hunt!
I built CarrierPad for small trucking companies who were running their whole operation out of spreadsheets and text messages.
It puts dispatch in one place: assign loads to drivers, track status, keep documents and rate confirmations together, and run settlements. There is a built-in cost per mile calculator so you actually know if a load is worth taking.
It works on the web and there are iOS and Android apps for drivers on the road.
Would love feedback from anyone in trucking or logistics on what would make your day to day easier.

How does the cost per mile calculator actually pull in fuel and maintenance data, or do carriers have to enter all of that manually each month?

@uuruz0q Great question. The free calculator is manual by design: you enter your pump price, real MPG and a per-mile maintenance figure (we prefill sensible defaults like $0.15/mile for maintenance and tires). No monthly re-entry though, those are just starting points you tweak per load. Inside the platform it's different: cost per mile and margin reports are built from your actual loads, rates and driver settlements as you dispatch, so the numbers update themselves. Automatic fuel price feeds are on the roadmap.
