Every afternoon, from 3 to 7, your dispatcher hand-builds tomorrow's plan — matching every available driver to every load, around hours of service, time windows, and customer rules. Nivio Dispatch does it in one click, in minutes. Same drivers, same loads, a better plan. The first optimization algorithm built for bulk trucking dispatch.
A real bulk board, solved end to end. As the Proprietary Algorithm places every load on every driver — inside hours of service — the route map untangles from tangled deadhead into a tight, margin-optimal plan, in minutes.
The optimizer planning a 73-driver board — same trucks, same loads, a smarter plan.
Layers on top of the TMS and ELD you already run — no rip-and-replace
You don't need more trucks to move more freight — you need a smarter plan. A Proprietary Algorithm builds the margin-optimal plan your dispatcher used to hand-build every afternoon, then pushes it straight to the TMS you already run. No rip-and-replace.
14-hour windows, 30-minute breaks, 70-hour cycles — enforced at plan time, not caught after.
Cross-contamination rules, washouts, driver skills, hot loads, and dedicated lanes — built in for the way bulk actually moves. Sand, crude, diesel, water, chemicals, food grade, fertilizer, NGL, grain and more, each with its own constraints.
Revenue, fuel, wages, tolls, and wear costed per load, per driver, per shift — so you plan for margin, not just for coverage.
When your best dispatcher is out sick or on vacation, the operation doesn't wobble. The rules live in the system, the optimal plan builds itself, and a new hire is productive in days — not the six months it takes to learn the board by hand.
The afternoon plan isn't one decision — it's hundreds of rules held in one person's head. Here's what the Proprietary Algorithm weighs on every load, so the plan that comes back is one you can actually run.
Tell it what "best" means — most revenue, lowest cost, most paid miles, least deadhead — and every assignment is built to that target. It packs the most loads onto each driver, keeps trucks earning instead of idling, and spreads work evenly so no one runs ragged while another sits half-empty. Every plan is scored, so you can see why this match beat the alternative.
Who's on today, who's already rolling, how many hours each one has left, who's due home, and who's been run hard three days running. The algorithm reads every driver's real clock and home-time before it assigns a single load — so the plan it hands back is one your drivers can actually run, not one you have to unwind by 4pm.
Hazmat, tanker, TWIC, the customer's approved-driver list, who's checked out on which product. A crude load doesn't go to a driver without the endorsement; a food-grade load doesn't go to a truck that just ran chemicals. The algorithm matches qualification to commodity before it ever matches truck to lane.
Origins, destinations, racks, terminals, and the empty miles between them. The algorithm chains loads so a driver finishes one near the pickup of the next, turning deadhead into paid freight. Fewer empty miles, more loads per shift, the same trucks earning more.
Appointment times, rack and terminal hours, detention, load and unload times — and the 14-hour, 30-minute, and 70-hour HOS limits sitting on top of all of it. The algorithm sequences the day so loads land inside their windows and no driver runs out of clock mid-route.
Your loads and drivers feed in from the TMS and ELD you already have — McLeod, TMW, or custom; Motive, Samsara, Geotab, Omnitracs. The plan builds, your dispatcher reviews and stays in control of every call, and the finished assignments push straight back to your TMS by webhook. No rip-and-replace, no new system to learn.
Bring your TMS, ELD, and last 90 days of loads. We'll run your real shifts through Nivio and show you the loaded-mile and margin you're leaving on the road — with receipts. Layers on top of your TMS. No rip-and-replace. $2 per driver, per day.
