Every driver. Every load. One plan.
Every other TMS shows you a list of loads. NextLoad shows you who should haul them. It looks at every driver against every load, plays each driver’s clock forward and only suggests a trip that’s legal and on time. You decide what matters most, and it plans the whole board around you.

A week of freight. Planned your way.
Here’s a board of ten drivers and sixteen open loads, coast to coast. Pick what matters most, or drag a slider, and every match, every empty mile and the whole schedule change with it. Click any trip to see every stop its driver’s clock makes.

Timing.
Profitability is about timing.
A carrier needs to secure a driver’s next load about 3 to 5 days before the current dispatch ends. A broker needs loads dispatched 3 to 5 days before the pickup date. Anything less timely and the carrier earns too little, and the broker spends too much. When the timing is right, both companies make more money.
NextLoad puts every driver’s next load in front of you at once, while there’s still time to make the right call.
01The driver’s clock.
Legal and on time. Before you see it.
NextLoad plays each driver’s clock forward along the whole trip: the 11-hour drive, the 14-hour window, the 30-minute break and the 70-hour cycle, with fuel stops, two hours at every dock, and the pickup and delivery windows. If a trip can’t be run legally and on time, you never see it.

One trip from the board above. Pick Maximize Revenue and click Alvarez’s trip to see it on the map.
02Your priorities.
One board, four plans. You choose.
Each priority is a slider, and you can blend them any way you like. Pick one and NextLoad plans the whole board around it, then shows you the empty miles, the revenue and the profit.
03Your call.
It proposes. You dispatch.
NextLoad doesn’t dispatch a load on its own. It puts a plan in front of you. You know things the board doesn’t: a driver who needs to be home by Friday, a customer who asks for someone by name. Drag a driver onto a load on the map and NextLoad keeps your call, as long as the driver can legally make it, then replans everything else around it.
NextLoad’s plan. Alvarez takes 48214 out of Nacogdoches and Foster takes 48211 out of Beaumont.
Your call. You drag Alvarez onto 48211. NextLoad keeps it, gives 48214 to Foster and leaves the other eight drivers on their loads.

Six minutes on how NextLoad plans the board: your priorities, every driver’s clock, the real trip behind every match, and why the best load for one truck isn’t always the best plan for the fleet.
