A freight platform that grows around your operation
The features our shippers ask for become the features we build. Start with real, bookable rates and a full toolkit — then shape the platform to fit the way your team actually ships.
Most freight tools make you fit their software. We do it the other way.
Freight Sidekick is a full brokerage with the tooling to match — instant multi-carrier rates, guided quoting that figures out load type for you, pallet planning, freight-class density math, team accounts, cargo protection, and an AI assistant that quotes real freight. It's everything you'd expect a modern shipping platform to do.
What makes it different is what happens next. Once you're shipping with us, the controls, workflows, integrations, and reports you need become things we actually build — scoped to your operation, shipped into your account. The features below are where that starts.
What sets us apart
Capabilities most brokers don't offer — starting with the promise to build what you ask for.
Built around you
The features our shippers ask for become the features we build. Ship with us, tell us what you need, and we build it into your account.
ExploreMulti-user accounts
Bring your whole team onto one account with the right access for each person — and custom roles when your workflow needs them.
ExploreMeet Allison
Allison quotes real, bookable freight, sorts out class and pallets, and hands off to a real broker the moment you want one.
ExploreInsurance & liability
Know exactly what your freight is covered for — real carrier-liability limits, and full-value coverage you can add in one step at booking.
ExploreThe shipping toolkit
The everyday tools that make quoting and booking freight fast and accurate.
Multi-carrier rating
Real, bookable multi-carrier LTL rates in seconds — actual carrier pricing you can book, not a market index.
ExploreGuided quoting
A quote flow that figures out the hard parts for you — load type, over-dimensional detection, and multi-stop routing.
ExplorePlan then quote
Turn loose boxes into a real pallet plan — count, weight, dimensions, and linear feet — then quote it with no guesswork.
ExploreDensity → class
Density-based NMFC freight class, done right — so your quote is accurate and you avoid costly reclass surprises.
ExplorePortal & documents
One portal for tracking, documents, and your whole shipment history — shared across your team.
ExploreBuilt around you

The features our shippers ask for become the features we build. If you're shipping with us, tell us the workflow, control, integration, or report you need and we'll build it into your account. It's how the platform grows around your operation instead of the other way around.
Custom work is for active customers who've moved at least one shipment with us, scoped to freight shipping tools, workflows, controls, integrations, and reporting.
Free freight tools
The platform is backed by a full set of free calculators and generators — size up a load, find your freight class, estimate transit and fuel surcharge, or generate a Bill of Lading. No account required.
