  • Every player in our industry has a role in driving growth and sustainability—and that includes providing brokers with fast, easy-to-onboard technology that enhances their capabilities from day one. We’re thrilled to congratulate Uber Freight on today’s launch of Broker Access! This innovative solution empowers brokers to seamlessly book and execute loads through Uber Freight’s extensive carrier network. As a preferred integration partner for Broker Access, we’re excited to support brokerages of all sizes in rapidly adopting this cutting-edge capacity-as-a-service solution. Together, we’re delivering not only immediate impact but also long-term value for the industry.

    VP, Emerging Products & Business Development @ Uber Freight

    Freight brokers don’t have to choose one carrier sourcing strategy or another. They can cover loads through the hard-earned relationships of their carrier sales team and use load boards for last-minute loads, *and* cover their loads through a digitally connected carrier network. We believe the more successful brokers will leverage multiple strategies: their carrier sales teams, load boards, *and* digitally connected carrier networks (like Uber Freight’s Broker Access, starting today), and increasingly meet carriers where they are. I’m excited to announce Broker Access, a capacity-as-a-service program uniquely built for brokers that gives them direct, 24/7 access to one of the market’s largest digitally connected carrier networks. Broker Access wasn’t designed to compete with carrier sales teams or load boards—rather, we designed the program to complement them. Along with our launch today, I wrote about how brokers of all sizes can leverage Broker Access in their sourcing toolkit. I also talked about our approach to building a program like Broker Access, including my perspective and lessons learned from launching a program like it previously. Many thanks to the Broker Access team, and our incredible early customers and partners for joining us on this exciting journey!
