6 AI tools for freight brokers
Written by Wanna AI. Checked on 17 Oct 2026. This page was written by Wanna AI; Wanna in this list is our product. Prices change; open each link before you decide.
Short answer. Of the six, two show no price at all (Drumkit and Parade). Among the paid plans we could read (US dollars), the lowest is Numeo Pro at 9.99 per dispatcher a month billed annually, and Keelway's flat 799 a month is the highest entry price. Which one fits depends on whether you need rates, an email assistant, a whole TMS or a phone agent. The six are alphabetical, not scored.
How we chose
- The vendor's own site describes work a small brokerage does: reading carrier and customer email, quoting, finding loads and trucks, checking carriers, dispatching, or growing the brokerage itself.
- We read each site on 17 Oct 2026 and print prices in US dollars as shown there. Where a page shows no price, we write "not shown".
- We ran none of them, except that we know Wanna from the inside. Results the vendors print about themselves are not repeated here, because we could not check them.
The six
| Tool | What it does | Who it is for | Price (US dollars) and plan limits, read 17 Oct 2026 | Honest minuses |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| DAT | Load board with market rate data for brokers | Brokers who price and post loads from market rates | DAT One broker plans, billed monthly: Express 159, Select 319, Office 449. Broker/carrier combos: 339 and 469. Express includes a 30-day rate; Select and Office add a market rate covering spot and contract | The pricing page names no AI feature beyond its rate data, and shows no trial. It is rates and a load board, not an assistant that works your inbox |
| Drumkit | An assistant in your email sidebar for quotes, building loads into your TMS, asking carriers for rates from truck lists, scheduling and tracking updates | Brokers who live in email | Not shown. The page offers an intro call and a demo | No price, no trial; the percentages the page prints about win rate and productivity are the vendor's own, and we did not check them |
| Keelway | A TMS with an AI inbox that reads carrier emails and pulls out rate, equipment and lane, plus load board, dispatch, carrier checks, tracking and invoicing | Brokerages of 1 to 30 staff | Core: 799 a month flat, unlimited users, month-to-month; billed annually it is 7,668 a year, per its FAQ. 30-day trial, no card, but you connect a Gmail or sandbox inbox. Fraud Shield add-on 199 a month and Voice add-on 399 per seat a month, both early access | No free tier. It is a whole system, so you move your desk onto it. The page says no brokerage runs the Voice add-on on a live desk yet |
| Numeo | A browser extension for load finding on DAT and Truckstop, and a TMS for small fleets | Dispatchers and owner-operators more than brokerages | Spot: Free 0 (1 seat, 1 MC connection); Pro 9.99 per dispatcher a month billed annually (14.99 monthly); Ultra 29.99 (49.99 monthly). Numeo One TMS: Basic 99 a month and Pro 149, each up to 10 trucks, 14-day trial | The page does not show the charge past 10 trucks, or seat limits on Pro. It is built for the carrier and dispatch side of the load |
| Parade | CoDriver answers inbound carrier calls and emails, screens carrier fit and records quotes into your system; also a shared view of carrier capacity | Brokerages with many carrier calls | Not shown. The only call to action is a demo | No price, no trial, no customer count shown |
| Wanna | Reads the link you paste, plans your first week, and drafts letters, applications and posts for your OK | A brokerage growing its own business: new shippers, outreach, its own site | Free: plan, matches, first drafts. Starter $20 a month, 1 company, 200 credits. Growth $49, 5,000 credits. Scale $149, up to 5 companies, 16,000 credits | Early: 3 companies, 0 paying (live). It does not quote loads, find trucks or talk to carriers |
By job
Market rates and a load board: DAT. An assistant in your inbox: Drumkit or Keelway. A whole TMS: Keelway or Numeo One. Carrier calls: Parade. Load finding for dispatchers: Numeo. The brokerage's own next task: Wanna. For the wider fleet and warehouse side, see AI agents for logistics companies and AI for 3PL. Questions to ask any vendor: how to choose.
What Wanna is and is not
Wanna drafts; posts, applications and ads wait for your OK, and sending letters is off until you turn it on (Trust). On the live page at 15:33 UTC on 17 Oct 2026: 3 companies of people, 0 paying, MRR 0, 19 tasks done in 7 days. It does not run a desk: it will not price a load or call a carrier. You can start free on Wanna.
What this list does not replace
It does not replace your own trial: we read sites, not products. It does not replace a broker's judgment on a load or a carrier, your carrier vetting and insurance checks, your broker authority and bond requirements, or your contracts with shippers and carriers. A tool that reads carrier email or places calls still needs a person to decide what goes out. See the limits of a self-running company.
FAQ
What are the best AI tools for freight brokers? We do not rank them. The By job section sorts the six by task.
How much do AI tools for freight brokers cost? The table has each price as the vendor shows it. Numeo Spot and Wanna have a 0 tier. Paid plans we could read run from 9.99 per dispatcher a month (Numeo Pro, billed annually) to 799 a month flat (Keelway Core). Drumkit and Parade show no price.
Is there AI software for freight brokers that reads carrier emails? Keelway lists an AI inbox that pulls rate, equipment and lane from carrier emails, and Drumkit lists an email sidebar that asks carriers for quotes from truck lists. We tested neither.
Can an AI agent call carriers for me? Parade lists CoDriver, which answers inbound carrier calls and emails. Keelway lists a Voice add-on that places and answers carrier calls, and says no brokerage runs it on a live desk yet. We did not test either.
Is Wanna a freight broker tool? No. It helps you grow your own brokerage: it plans the week and drafts outside-facing work for your OK. It is our product, so its minuses are in the table.
