The "Lead Drought" Problem
Manual prospecting drowns dispatchers in outdated DAT and Truckstop carrier directories, missing timely shipper opportunities amid volatile freight rates that fluctuate 20-30% weekly in spot markets
Fragmented data from load boards like 123Loadboard and ERP systems such as TMW leads to duplicate outreach, wasting fuel on cold calls to non-viable lanes like empty backhauls from Chicago to Dallas
Seasonal demand spikes, such as harvest peaks for reefer and construction booms for flatbed, overwhelm sales teams with unqualified leads, causing backlogs in bookings and delaying capacity utilization
Compliance hurdles like FMCSA regulations and EU customs sourcing in international freight expose firms to fines up to $10,000 per violation while chasing unreliable overseas contacts via unverified brokers
Inaccurate load matching from generic tools like basic TMS platforms results in empty miles, eroding margins in a market where 40% of dry van and flatbed capacity goes unused during off-peak periods
Delayed lead enrichment from scattered sources like SONAR data and broker APIs hampers quick quoting, losing bids to competitors in time-sensitive LTL shipments under 150 miles

What Makes Us Different:
Unlock Efficiency and Revenue in Your Freight Business
Precision Lead Targeting
Precision Lead Targeting: Our AI analyzes historical SONAR freight patterns and lane density data to surface shippers matching your exact equipment like 53' dry vans and dedicated lanes, reducing empty backhauls by up to 35% and filling your calendar with profitable OTR runs averaging $2.50 per mile.
Accelerated Booking Cycles
Accelerated Booking Cycles: Automated enrichment and scoring via integration with your TMS cut lead qualification from days to hours, enabling faster RFQs and a 25% uplift in on-time bookings for spot market reefer loads amid fluctuating rates peaking at $4/lb in summer.
Cost-Effective Scaling
Cost-Effective Scaling: Replace subscription sprawl from multiple load boards with a single, owned AI system that grows with your fleet—saving 40% on tools while handling 2x the lead volume for flatbed hauls without adding dispatchers, even during Q4 peak seasons.
What Clients Say
"Before AIQ, our team spent weeks sifting through Truckstop load board noise for reefer loads out of the Midwest produce hubs like Chicago and Indianapolis. Now, the system flags viable shippers overnight using lane analytics, and we've added 15 steady accounts in three months without extra hires, boosting our reefer utilization from 65% to 92%."
Mike Harlan
Operations Director, Midwest Freight Haulers LLC
"We were buried in unqualified international leads that didn't align with our OTR routes from the US East Coast to Canada. Their custom AI integrated with our McLeod TMS and started delivering enriched EU shipper data compliant with C-TPAT within weeks—our cross-border bookings jumped 28% last quarter, with zero compliance incidents."
Sarah Kline
Sales Manager, Global Link Carriers Inc.
"Flatbed demand was unpredictable during construction off-seasons, and manual outreach via outdated directories was killing our margins on oversized loads. AIQ built a custom scorer that prioritizes high-volume hauls over 40,000 lbs, cutting our chase time in half while boosting revenue per mile by 12% to $3.20—solid work for our Texas operations."

Why We're Different
What's Included
Common Questions
How does your AI handle the variability in freight rates and seasonal demand?
Our custom models incorporate real-time data from sources like the Cass Freight Index and your historical logs to forecast demand shifts. For instance, in reefer-heavy seasons, it prioritizes temperature-controlled shippers while adjusting scores for rate volatility. This isn't guesswork—it's trained on your specific lanes, reducing bad leads by 40%. We build flexibility into the core, so as fuel prices swing or holidays approach, the system adapts without manual tweaks, keeping your pipeline steady.
What makes your lead generation different from standard load board subscriptions?
Load boards like DAT flood you with volume but little quality—our AI filters and enriches to match your exact capacity, like dry van OTR or flatbed regional. We scrap beyond public boards, pulling from private shipper networks and enriching with firmographics. Integrated directly into your TMS, it automates the handoff, cutting manual entry. Clients see 3x better conversion because it's built for your workflow, not a generic feed that leaves dispatchers sorting noise.
How long does it take to see results from your custom lead system?
Most freight firms notice qualified leads flowing within 4-6 weeks post-launch. We start with a quick audit of your current setup, build the core engine in 2-3 weeks, then integrate and test. Early wins come from initial scrapes tuned to your top lanes. One carrier hit 20% more bookings in the first month by targeting underserved backhauls. Full optimization ramps up over 90 days as the AI learns from your conversions, but the time savings start day one.
Is this solution compliant with transportation regulations like FMCSA?
Absolutely—compliance is baked in from the start. Our AI flags leads against FMCSA carrier authority, hours-of-service rules, and ELD data for viable matches. For international freight, it cross-references customs regs and trade sanctions. We use secure, encrypted data handling to protect sensitive shipper info, aligning with C-TPAT standards. No cookie-cutter risks here; every build is audited for your operations, ensuring you avoid fines while chasing compliant, high-value loads.
Can your system integrate with our existing TMS or CRM software?
Yes, we specialize in deep, two-way integrations with popular TMS like McLeod, TMW, or Rose Rocket, and CRMs such as Salesforce or HubSpot. The AI pulls dispatch data to inform lead scoring—e.g., avoiding overbooked lanes—and pushes enriched prospects back for seamless quoting. No brittle Zapier hacks; our custom APIs ensure reliability, even during peak volumes. We've connected to legacy systems for older fleets too, creating a single source of truth that eliminates data silos in your logistics stack.
What if our freight business grows—will the system scale?
Scalability is core to our architecture. Built on robust frameworks, it handles surging lead volumes during events like harvest season without hiccups—processing 10,000+ prospects daily if needed. As your fleet expands, we modularize components for easy upgrades, like adding multi-modal support for intermodal shifts. Clients scaling from 50 to 200 trucks report no downtime, with costs staying predictable. It's designed as your owned asset, evolving with acquisitions or new routes, not forcing you into pricier tiers.
