Dispatch software for U.S. trucking
Elar Logistics is the platform your dispatch desk runs on. Cases and stops, the driver board, compliance alerts, broker invoicing and a driver app, in one system the whole team works in. Built by people who have run these operations for twelve years.
Onboarding U.S. carriers directly · Talk to a dispatcher, not a sales rep
Industry expertise
For more than twelve years we have worked directly inside U.S. transportation operations, not alongside them. The system behind Elar Logistics has been running real dispatch in production for over four years. This release is that system rebuilt as a product any carrier can sign up for.
How it works
A case is one shipment. It moves through a series of stops — a pick up, one or more deliveries, and a yard or custom stop where you need one — and it holds everyone involved: the broker who gave you the load, the carrier hauling it, the driver, truck and trailer doing the work, and the shippers and receivers at each end.
Check calls, documents, expenses and the invoice live on the same record. Nobody has to reconcile two systems to answer where a truck is or whether a broker has paid.
The platform
Dispatch, fleet, compliance and accounting are the same records seen from different seats, so a change in one place is a change everywhere.
Drivers down the side, days across the top. Right-click a load to assign, reassign or close it, and watch arrival timers run as drivers reach their stops.

Duty and schedule conflicts
Build the shipment once. Pick up, delivery, yard and custom stops each carry their own windows, contacts and paperwork.

Check calls per stop
Detention · Lumper · Deduction
Hand Elar the rate confirmation instead of typing the load in. A PDF, a photo of the paperwork or text pasted from an email becomes a draft case in the background.

Clean imports become drafts
Source file stays attached
Elar raises the alert the day a date passes. You cannot add one by hand, so nothing expires because somebody forgot to write it down.
License · Medical card
Registration · Inspection
Oil change · Insurance policy
Closed cases move down one lane: invoice the broker, follow the payment, reconcile it, close it out. Every stage is a tab with a live count.
Not Paid → Sent For Payment
→ Payment Received → Completed
Loss for what is written off
Drivers get their own app instead of a phone call. Positions report in the background, stop actions come back to the board, and dispatch can message them directly.

Dispatcher chat · Duty hours
Drivers, trucks, trailers, MAC numbers and yards on one side; brokers, carriers, shippers and receivers on the other. Each record carries its own documents and dates.

Broker and carrier authority
Access is set per person, not by role. Give someone view-only cases and full accounting, or dispatch and nothing else. Companies you work with see only what you open to them.
Per-user permission flags
Multi-tenant by company
Cross-company collaboration
Compliance and money
The two failures that cost carriers real money are a date nobody watched and an invoice nobody chased. Both are tracked lists here, not somebody’s memory.
Each stage is a tab with its own count, and a case moves between them from its row. Expenses, deductions and the broker rate stay on the case, so the invoice matches the load that was actually run.

“ElarBridge didn’t just build software — they understood our business. Their TMS solution transformed our operations.”
Who it’s for
If you run a trucking company in the U.S. and still coordinate through disconnected systems, Excel and phone calls, the cost shows up as time and margin rather than as a line item. Elar was written for fleets of two trucks and fleets of a hundred, and for groups running several authorities at once.
Getting started
Book a call and we’ll go through your operation, then open your company account and get your team their logins.
A case needs a carrier, a broker, a driver, a truck and a trailer to exist. Add those five records and the rest of the app opens up.
Fill in the load and its stops, or upload the rate confirmation and let Elar read it into a draft for you to confirm.
Open Assignment, put a driver on the load, and follow it through heading, arrived and closed to the invoice.
Talk it through with someone who has sat at a dispatch desk. We’ll walk a real load from your own lanes through the board.
