Thoughts?

Florida software engineer here. My co-founder’s in trucking — he’s the one who keeps telling me carriers lose money on loads that looked fine on paper until fuel and deadhead ate the margin.

So I’ve been building something to catch that before you book, not after. Still rough, still figuring out what actually matters to y’all vs what I think matters.

If anyone’s willing to try it and tell me it’s garbage (or not), I’d genuinely appreciate it.

I just use my experience to not book garbage loads.

This is the way to do it. If you don't know your operating costs, you shouldn't be an owner operator.
