When a software vendor says "This will save you money," your first thought should be: Prove it.

Smart fleet owners don't buy based on promises. They buy based on numbers that make sense.

Here's exactly what a modern TMS returns, and how carriers actually see ROI with Datatruck's carrier-first platform.

Time Savings That Compound Every Week

Most fleets burn hours on tasks that software should handle:

• Manually typing rate confirmations into the system

• Assigning drivers and trucks across loads

• Chasing missing PODs and invoices

• Building financial reports from scratch

• Digging through emails for dispatch details

Let's do the math on one feature alone:

TruckGPT document AI saves 5 minutes per load on data entry. For a fleet running 30 loads per week, that's 150 minutes saved weekly.

Over a year? 130+ hours recovered. That's more than three full work weeks.

Now add up time saved on billing, driver pay summaries, report generation, and load tracking. You're looking at a full-time role's worth of manual work eliminated.

Faster Invoicing Means Faster Cash Flow

Every day a load sits unbilled is a day you're not getting paid.

Without a TMS:

• Dispatch and billing work in separate systems

• Documents get lost in email chains

• Loads go weeks without invoices

• Payments are delayed, factoring costs increase

With Datatruck:

• POD status is tracked automatically

• Missing documents are flagged instantly

• Invoices are generated the same day loads deliver

Carriers using Datatruck reduce invoice lag by 2-4 days on average, accelerating cash flow and reducing factoring dependency.

Keeping drivers paid on time starts with getting invoices out faster.

Better Driver Retention Through Pay Accuracy

Driver pay disputes usually come from unclear communication, missed reimbursements, or incorrect deductions.

A modern TMS ties every load to the correct driver with:

• Pay rate and contract terms

• Fuel reimbursements and deductions

• Clear settlement history

With Datatruck's automated driver pay system:

• Settlements generate automatically after each load

• Drivers see transparent pay summaries in the mobile app

• Fewer disputes, faster payouts, and more trust

That kind of clarity reduces driver churn, which is one of the biggest hidden costs in trucking.

Real Visibility into Profit Per Truck and Load

Most carriers know their top-line revenue. But they can't answer basic questions like:

• Which trucks are losing money?

• Which dispatchers or lanes are underperforming?

• What's the real margin after fuel, factoring, and payroll?

Datatruck solves this with built-in financial reporting that breaks down:

• Profit per truck

• Profit per load

• Weekly margin trends

• Cost per mile (CPM) and revenue per mile (RPM)

Instead of relying on gut instinct, you get real data to make smart decisions. Track the metrics that actually matter without building custom spreadsheets.

One Platform Instead of Five Tools

Most fleets juggle:

• One tool for dispatch

• One for billing

• One for fuel cards

• One for driver communication

• One for IFTA and compliance reports

The result? Double data entry, wasted time, higher costs, and disconnected workflows.

Datatruck's carrier-first TMS replaces 4-5 separate tools:

• Load management and dispatch

• Billing and accounting

• Driver pay and settlements

• Fuel tracking and IFTA

• Real-time reporting dashboards

• Driver mobile app for load updates

You pay for fewer subscriptions. You train fewer people. You manage operations with less friction.

See how carriers are consolidating tools and cutting costs by switching to an all-in-one platform.

Real Customer ROI Example

A 20-truck carrier using Datatruck reported:

• $65,000 in recovered revenue from unbilled loads and fuel overcharges

• 12+ hours per week saved in dispatch and billing time

• 25% reduction in driver turnover after switching to automated pay summaries

• Cut software costs by consolidating from 4 apps down to 1

All for less than what they were paying for dispatch and factoring tools alone.

Ray Cargo scaled from 50 to 350+ trucks using Datatruck, saving over $150,000 by automating invoicing and eliminating spreadsheet chaos.

What's the Cost of Not Switching?

If you're still:

• Typing rate confirmations manually

• Running dispatch and billing in separate systems

• Guessing at margins and profitability

• Chasing drivers for documents

• Paying for 5+ disconnected tools

Then the real question isn't what a modern TMS costs. It's what your current system is already costing you in time, money, and missed opportunities.

Legacy systems weren't built for carriers. They were built for logistics companies with different priorities.

Carriers are switching to smarter TMS platforms because they need tools that understand how trucking actually works.
