Drew McElroy: We live in a fast paced world. We're used to tapping our phones and getting a product delivered immediately. As consumers, we expect speed.

Lily Shen: But few people ever think about the vast network of trucks that move the everyday goods we rely on. How does your new bike make it from the manufacturer in Wisconsin to the big box store in Tucson? It does not get there easily.

Christian Lee: The current system for moving freight is incredibly inefficient.

Jonathan Salama: It's volatile. It's fragmented. It can't keep up with consumer expectation for speed.

Drew McElroy: Most freight transactions are managed manually. That means people are picking up the phone to negotiate each individual load, one at a time.

Jonathan Salama: There are a half a million trucking companies in the US. Those companies have to be matched with the millions of loads they move each year. There's no centralized trucking system.

Lily Shen: There's no centralized anything. The result is massive waste.

Christian Lee: Every day, trucks on the road are driving empty.

Lily Shen: That's time. That's money. That's needless emissions pumped into the air.

Jonathan Salama: That's a staggering opportunity for innovation.

Drew McElroy: Transfix turns this paradigm on its head. Our platform combines world-class logistics with data and automation to revolutionize the movement of freight. My dad started a freight brokerage in 1987 when I was five. I grew up around it and listening to it every day. I saw the palpable frustration. The reason this all started was because I went to my family's logistics company and kept saying, "This is stupid. There's got to be a better way." I left. And we started Transfix.

I partnered with Jonathan, our CTO. His history of building tech startups is unrivaled. Lily was the ideal partner to grow and scale the business.

Lily Shen: We have grown an incredible team of over 240 industry and technology experts, who all share the common vision to build the most connected and intelligent freight platform in the world.

Drew McElroy: Transfix is solving the most challenging problems facing the supply chain. Our technology and our team create order from chaos across the entire life cycle of a truckload. We've built capabilities that automate every step, from booking to billing.

Christian Lee: Our SaaS tools are designed to help carriers manage their entire fleet and help shippers run their operations.

Lily Shen: With our machine learning models we can calculate thousands of quotes for yearlong contracts and one-off shipments.

Jonathan Salama: Our data-driven tech is continually getting smarter the more transaction we process. The platform gets better and better at pricing matching and efficiency.

Drew McElroy: We pair our technology with the human touch. Whether there's a snowstorm in Dallas or a backup at the port, our team of experts manages all the problems that occur from pickup to delivery.

Christian Lee: All of this turns into enormous savings and a huge opportunity. Many of the biggest brands in the world are already on board.

Speaker 1: Transfix has allowed us to have more visibility. At any given time I can see where that carrier is. What city, what state, if there's delays. That customer service is phenomenal.

Speaker 2: If your wheels aren't turning, you're not earning. That's what Transfix does for our carriers. They keep us loaded and keep us earning.

Lily Shen: When we eliminate waste, everyone wins. Drivers make more money. Shipments are more reliable. And we reduce emissions.

Drew McElroy: Less waste in the system impacts all of us.

Christian Lee: Drivers, consumers, shippers.

Lily Shen: But also our crumbling infrastructure. The environment.

Jonathan Salama: Everything.

Lily Shen: This is a smarter, more sustainable logistics ecosystem. This is the future of freight.

Drew McElroy: And we are very proud to bring it to you.
