Freight brokerage

Reduce freight fraud exposure, payment disputes, and remedial load-document work.

ProofRelay checks carrier, load, POD, invoice, accessorial, and payment evidence before brokers dispatch freight, approve invoices, bill shippers, or respond to disputes.

Freight Broker Payment & Dispatch Proof Pack

Broker-only POD + carrier invoice + accessorial checkpoint before AP payment or shipper billing.

Invoice payment checkpoint

Classify carrier invoice packets as ready to pay, needs review, or missing evidence.

  • • Rate confirmation
  • • BOL
  • • POD
  • • Carrier invoice
  • • Accessorial backup

Minutes saved per invoice plus unsupported charges routed before payment.

POD and billing readiness

Route missing delivery evidence before shipper billing or dispute response.

  • • Signed POD
  • • Receiver signature
  • • Delivery timestamp
  • • Exception notes

Loads ready to bill earlier with fewer document-chase cycles.

High-risk dispatch checkpoint

Escalate new-carrier, payment-change, or high-value-load exceptions before dispatch.

  • • Carrier packet
  • • Insurance certificate
  • • MC/DOT evidence
  • • Manager approval

Risky loads routed to human review before freight moves.

Conservative ROI floor

At 500 loads/month, saving only 5 minutes/load at $50/hour plus $5/load in routed invoice leakage creates an illustrative annual value of $55,000.

Illustrative only. Actual savings depend on load volume, rework rate, AP/ops cost, invoice exceptions, dispute frequency, and current fraud controls.

Customer freight brokerage dashboard

A friendly customer view for every load checkpoint.

Customers should not need to understand internal TMS queues to know what is ready, blocked, or waiting on evidence. The freight dashboard translates broker controls into clear load-status language before dispatch, billing, payment, and dispute response.

Before dispatch

Is this load ready to move with the agreed carrier controls?

Shows carrier packet, insurance, rate confirmation, and manager-review status without exposing private notes.

Before shipper billing

Can finance bill the shipper without another document chase?

Summarizes POD, receiver signature, exception notes, and billing readiness in plain language.

Before carrier payment

Which invoices are ready, disputed, or missing backup?

Separates ready-to-pay invoices from detention, lumper, accessorial, and duplicate-charge review queues.

Production readiness controls

  • No raw shipper, carrier, driver, payment, or credential secrets are required in public proofs.
  • Every dashboard card states what evidence is present, missing, stale, or needs review.
  • Customer and operator views share status language so sales, ops, AP, and support see the same facts.
  • Fraud-sensitive decisions remain routed to broker-defined human approval and vendor systems.

Trust boundary

ProofRelay does

  • • Verify submitted evidence structure and required document presence.
  • • Detect missing, stale, inconsistent, or weak evidence before dispatch or payment.
  • • Route exceptions to operations, AP, compliance, or management review.
  • • Create replayable proof receipts for audit, dispute, customer-service, and training review.

ProofRelay does not claim

  • • Certify that a carrier, driver, shipper, or receiver is legitimate in the real world.
  • • Guarantee no double brokering, cargo theft, fraud, or falsified document event occurred.
  • • Replace FMCSA, TMS, factoring, insurance, fraud-vendor, accounting, legal, or human review.
  • • Determine liability, custody funds, or approve payment without broker-defined controls.
