About GoodShip

GoodShip is the first all-in-one platform for freight orchestration and procurement. Our innovative software helps shippers optimize their truckload freight spend and service outcomes while enhancing collaboration among internal teams and carrier partners.

The US domestic truckload freight market is massive – the industry generated revenues of $941 billion across 11.46 billion tons of product shipped in 2022. Our technology is optimizing freight outcomes for our customers, a rapidly growing roster which includes some of the industry’s largest and most recognizable shippers. Our software automates previously tedious and resource-intensive tasks, and unites disparate data sources to provide a holistic view of network performance. We provide shippers with best-in-class intelligence, a purpose-built procurement workflow, and the tools to collaborate more effectively and initiate corrective action directly within the GoodShip platform.

We’re backed by A-list venture firms and founders of industry-leading FreightTech companies, and were recently recognized in the FreightWaves FreightTech 25 and the BCV x Headline Vertical SaaS 50.
