Overview

Over a million loads move via trucks in the US every day and even in 2026 they are still booked through endless negotiations over calls and emails.

Lanesurf solves this with an army of AI agents that find nearby empty trucks, call/email them in parallel, negotiate rates, and book the best available truck.

Our self-improving voice AI stack is built for the messy reality of logistics - noisy calls, compliance checks, constant exceptions and turns them into faster bookings at better margins.
