Company mission
To bring modern technology to trucking in order to make it faster, cheaper, and more efficient.
119% employee growth in 12 months
Our take
American trucking represents over 80% of the nation's freight expenses, and several tech startups are working towards digital logistic management to optimize the efficiency of large-scale trucking fleets. However, over 90% of the trucking industry is represented by small businesses with relatively small trucking fleets, and logistic solutions for this scale of business remain limited.
Smarthop has built a digital platform that aims to provide insights for small businesses to improve their trucking efficiency, whilst providing additional services that ease the administrative workload of drivers. The company achieves this by providing route planning, 24/7 support, digital booking systems, and performance trackers as customizable API tools.
The company has brought a unique stance to the current trucking logistic landscape - providing digital management systems that focus on small fleets rather than large ones. The service provides both modular API tools and an integrated dashboard, in addition to services that fully automate optimization processes.
