Offer-to-load workflow
Check the rate, record negotiations, and preserve the accepted assumptions when an offer becomes a load.
Small fleet TMS
A transportation management system sized for a small carrier.
CarrierOS connects pre-book rate decisions, load records, dispatch, driver compensation, receivables, operating documents, and estimated carrier profit in one browser-based workspace.
For U.S. owner-operators and motor carriers with 1–20 power units that have outgrown disconnected spreadsheets but do not need enterprise implementation.
Small fleets need operating control without software that becomes another operation.
A traditional TMS can be too narrow, too large, or too expensive for a small carrier. CarrierOS focuses on the decisions between a broker offer and the cash the company ultimately keeps, with the load as the shared operating record.
What you can manage
Keep the operating math attached to the work.
Dispatch records
Keep stops, dates, contacts, driver, equipment, instructions, and status together.
Pay and profit
Estimate the driver obligation and carrier result using the company's configured assumptions.
Revenue follow-through
Track paperwork readiness, receivables, detention support, and payment status.
A clearer workflow
Follow the freight from offer to operating result
CarrierOS connects the record, the assumptions, and the result so the next decision starts with better context.

A closer look
What this workflow means in practice.
Use CarrierOS for the operating record and review, while keeping authoritative safety, financial, legal, and regulatory systems in their proper roles.
What CarrierOS includes
The workspace brings together the operating records that a small carrier uses every day. It is designed to reduce duplicate entry and make the financial consequence of a dispatch decision easier to see.
- Rate quotes, negotiation history, loads, assignments, and status.
- Seven driver-pay methods with earned and payment tracking.
- Receivables, detention support, compliance dates, documents, and reports.
What remains outside the system
CarrierOS is not an ELD, GPS tracking service, load board, accounting ledger, payroll processor, or regulatory filing service. Those systems remain the source of truth for their specialized functions.
- Use ELD and safety systems for hours-of-service and vehicle-compliance records.
- Use banks, payroll providers, and accounting systems for posted financial transactions.
- Verify legal and regulatory obligations with qualified professionals and official agencies.
Common questions
What small carriers ask before starting.
What does TMS mean in trucking?
A transportation management system helps organize freight planning and execution. CarrierOS applies that idea to the quote, dispatch, driver-pay, receivables, and profitability workflow of a small motor carrier.
How large a fleet can use CarrierOS?
Published plans support owner-operators and fleets with up to 20 active power units. Larger fleets can request a custom plan.
Does CarrierOS include unlimited office users?
Published operating plans include unlimited office users and driver records; pricing is based on active power units.
Is CarrierOS an ELD or accounting platform?
No. It is an operations and profitability workspace and does not replace an ELD, payroll, tax, legal, insurance, or regulated accounting system.
