Parade partners with AI Fleet to increase driver capacity

Feb. 11, 2022
Through advanced over-the-road technology, both companies will work to provide drivers with access to an untapped source of truckload freight capacity.

Parade has partnered with AI Fleet to offer brokers more access to additional capacity through AI Fleet’s over-the-road truckload technology.

Parade’s capacity management capabilities enable digital matching and automated notifications for the preferred loads of a carrier like AI Fleet. For a freight brokerage powered by Parade, the alliance with AI Fleet enables a broker to communicate, bid, and directly book full truckloads quickly.

“AI Fleet enables our freight brokerage customers to access their digital-first over-the-road truck drivers,” said Anthony Sutardja, co-founder and CEO of Parade. “This AI Fleet connection enables freight brokers to build digital relationships directly with a tech-native carrier.”

The AI Fleet connection works to help freight brokers by adding an untapped source of truckload freight capacity, which is in short supply. Freight brokers get an online commitment to haul their load via access to AI Fleet’s exceptional access to drivers.

“We are a tech-native trucking company focused on driver happiness. Joining the Parade partner ecosystem brings us a source of brokered freight that lets us maximize asset utilization and stay true to our commitment to our drivers,” said Marc El Khoury, founder and CEO of AI Fleet. “AI Fleet’s technology maximizes the driver utilization issue and through that, we avoid driver shortages. These factors combine so our drivers drive more and are, therefore, paid more. Parade connects us with high-quality brokers. Integrating AI Fleet with Parade enables us to book freight without friction.”

The partnership is another piece of Parade’s solution aimed at increased connection, which allows Parade-powered freight brokers to reach any trucking company in North America across all types and sizes of carriers.

“We pride ourselves in technology integrations that give our freight brokerage customers a more connected experience,” Sutardja added. “This carrier partner is innovating to resolve driver shortages and speed up digitization for this industry.”
