ROI Calculator

What dispatch friction costs the fleet.

Move the sliders to your real numbers. Output is annual savings from collapsing dispatch time and driver idle minutes. The math behind it is shown.

Active dispatched units. Power units, not trailers.
From load creation to truck assigned and driver notified, with current process.
Total daily dispatched loads, all trucks combined.
Salary + tax + benefits. Owner-dispatchers usually plug their own opportunity cost.
Average gross revenue on a typical dispatched load.
Better load-to-truck match means less staging time. 10-20 min is typical lift.
Cents per mile or hourly equivalent.
