Freight Dispatch, Automated

Freight Dispatch Software, Automated by AI

Black Knight DSS is AI freight dispatch software that automates the repetitive parts of dispatching — finding loads, negotiating rates, communicating with carriers, and running check-calls — so each dispatcher moves more freight with fewer mistakes.

Load booking & management

Search connected load boards, book loads, and manage every shipment from pickup to POD in one workspace.

Automated carrier comms

Rate cons, dispatch sheets, and updates go out automatically — no more copy-paste from a dozen tabs.

Automated check-calls

Drivers share status through tokenized links; the system logs ARRIVED/DEPARTED and dwell without a phone call.

Rate negotiation assist

Market rate benchmarks and AI suggestions help dispatchers hold margin on every load.

Docs & invoicing

Capture BOL/POD, generate invoices, and hand clean paperwork to factoring or accounting automatically.

Detention protection

Dwell is tracked in real time and packaged into broker-ready detention claims with LoadGuard.

Frequently asked questions

What does freight dispatch software do?

It helps dispatchers find and book loads, communicate with carriers and drivers, manage documents and invoicing, and track shipments. Black Knight DSS adds AI automation to each of those steps.

Can it work for a dispatch agency managing multiple carriers?

Yes — it is multi-tenant with strict data isolation, so an agency can run many carriers side by side. See our Dispatch Agency Software page.

Does it integrate with load boards?

How does it handle detention?

LoadGuard tracks dock dwell in real time and auto-builds broker-ready detention claims with GPS, verified dwell, and signed BOL evidence.
