Load search & planning
We search for vehicles that fit your trailer and route, check pickup and delivery requirements, and consider the freight available after each delivery.

Dispatch services.
CarrierPilot manages the daily dispatch work for the trucks you place with us. Before we begin, we agree on your operating requirements and the decisions your dispatcher can make on your behalf.
Rate negotiation & booking
Your dispatcher contacts brokers, negotiates rates and confirms load details before booking within your agreed limits.
Pickup & delivery coordination
We confirm locations, appointment windows and contact details, and pass the information to your drivers. When schedules change, we coordinate with the people involved.
Dispatch during the trip
We follow the truck’s progress and keep looking for suitable loads. Cancellations, delays and newly available trailer space are worked into the plan as the trip develops.
Load records & documents
We keep booking details, dispatch updates and load documents organized so the team can follow the work and review completed runs with you.
Performance review
We review each truck’s revenue, total miles and working days against the agreed target. Those results inform the next plan and the dispatch fee you pay.
02 THE WHOLE TRIP
The next load is only good if the rest of the trip works.
Before booking, we check how a load fits the truck’s route, available space and delivery schedule. We also look at the freight available near its destination and the miles needed to reach the next pickup.
Our search continues while the truck is loaded. As deliveries free up space, we look for pickups that fit the remaining route. If a load falls through or a pickup is delayed, your dispatcher adjusts the plan and coordinates the changes with the broker and driver.

OUR COMPANY
About CarrierPilot.
CarrierPilot brings together auto-transport dispatch knowledge and software developed for the work. Our service covers load planning, broker communication and daily coordination for the trucks assigned to us.
Our planning tools help dispatchers compare loads and route options using the truck’s location, available space and schedule. Dispatchers handle the calls, verify the details and make the bookings.
Each carrier’s operating requirements guide the work. We agree on the routes, rate limits and driver schedules before dispatch begins, then review performance with you as the service progresses.
- Operating limits agreed before dispatch begins
- Dispatchers make the calls and the bookings
- Performance reviewed with you as the service progresses
03 PERFORMANCE-BASED DISPATCH
Good dispatch should be easy to see in the numbers.
Before we start, we review your recent runs and agree on a revenue improvement target. We look at revenue alongside total miles, including empty miles, and the days the truck was available to work.
You’ll know which results we’re comparing, over what period and how the dispatch fee is calculated.
