Our take
Rose Rocket was founded by experts who were deeply entrenched in the transport and freight industry. As the industry began a slow but steady shift towards adopting tech and automation, Rose Rocket was established to help freight providers improve communications with systems, customers, and teams.
Rose Rocket’s transport management software provides its customers a platform with the tools needed to be more scalable, nimble and robust than traditional solutions. Its customers can connect their own systems to popular third-party systems like Quickbooks, Samsara and RMIS through a wide range of integrations. This allows Rose Rocket to provide an ecosystem of services which competitors struggle to match.
The company has been able to garner venture backing since its early days, and has secured its position as an industry leader. Moving forwards, the company plans to accelerate the expansion into larger fleets in the enterprise, as well as its investments in product development and network collaboration efforts..
