Discover how Just Tracking helps dispatchers search freight, negotiate rates in-app, track drivers live, and manage trip documents—100% free.
Ask any independent dispatcher or in-house freight coordinator what their desk looks like at 7:00 AM, and they'll tell you the same story.
You’ve got six browser tabs open for different load boards. Gmail is drowning in rate negotiations and broker check-calls. You’re texting drivers on your personal phone to get updates, manually copying rate-cons into spreadsheets, and opening Google Maps to figure out why a driver is stuck 30 miles off their route.
We built Just Tracking to give dispatchers a central command post. Whether you’re an independent dispatcher building your own carrier client list or managing an in-house fleet, here is a complete guide to how the platform works, how it streamlines your day, and why it costs $0 to use.
1. Finding & Booking Freight for Your Carriers
- Specialized Search & Filters: Search freight across standard trailers and over 60 specialized equipment types to match your carriers' exact specs.
- Direct Broker Chat: Stop wasting time drafting emails that get lost in a broker's inbox. Chat directly with brokers inside the platform from the load card to clarify pick-up times, commodity details, or reefer temps.
- Direct Bidding: Submit custom rate offers with a tap and negotiate terms in real-time.
- Crowdsourced Dead-Load Reporting: Nothing ruins a morning faster than calling on a load that paid out two hours ago. On Just Tracking, if a load is no longer available, other dispatchers and carriers can flag or comment on it so you don't waste time chasing ghost listings.
2. Managing Drivers & Real-Time Tracking
Once a load is booked, the real work begins: making sure the driver hits their windows and keeping the customer happy without making ten check-calls a day.
- Central Dispatch Dashboard: Assign a booked load directly to a driver from your dashboard.
- Real-Time Fleet Tracking: Track your assigned drivers on a live map in real time without paying for external tracking software.
- 1-Click Shareable Tracking Links: Tired of brokers calling every 30 minutes asking for updates? Generate a live tracking link and send it directly to the broker or shipper so they can track the load on their own.
- Automated Status Updates: The load status updates automatically as drivers check in, check out, or complete deliveries.
- Digital Document Hub: Drivers can attach Rate-Cons, lumper receipts, and signed Proof of Delivery (POD) directly to the trip file from their app, giving you instant access to paperwork for billing.
3. Growing Your Business & Keeping Trucks Loaded
Beyond daily operations, the platform works as a direct network hub to help you land repeat loads and stop running empty miles.
The "Available Trucks" Map: Don't just hunt for posted freight. Post your carriers' empty trucks on an interactive map visible to brokers on the platform. You can post real-time capacity or schedule upcoming lanes for tomorrow, letting brokers bring inbound offers directly to you.
The JT Dispatch Network: Independent dispatchers looking for new carrier clients can connect with owner-operators directly on the platform. Drivers who need dispatching help can toggle on Get Load Offers and match with registered dispatchers right inside the ecosystem. App Store
