About TruckSmarter

Logistics is one of the single largest industries in the world. Logistics is a global $10 trillion dollar industry, representing 10% of GDP in the US. The impact of one single change can drive a meaningful, global impact—from the cost of our goods, to the livelihoods of local communities, to even the impact on our environment.

At TruckSmarter, in our mission to drive this change, our primary focus is on truck drivers. Trucks move 71% of freight in America (~$800bn annually) & the trucking industry represents nearly 6% of the full-time jobs in the country. Truck drivers are integral to the fabric of our day-to-day lives—if you look around you, every item sat on at least one truck on its journey to you. Nonetheless, despite the industry driving a tremendous amount of innovation over time, it remains deeply fragmented & structurally misaligned. Our mission is to fix that, and we need your help.
