Non-traditional freight broker platforms are digital online platforms that leverage automated matching algorithms to connect shippers’ freight orders directly with carriers or transport providers, without operating as conventional licensed freight brokers. They utilize modern technologies for real-time pricing, tracking, and communication, often based on peer-to-peer or marketplace business models.
