Work your hot shot load board without living on it.
Loady is an AI dispatcher, not another load board. It searches the hot shot loads on the boards you already subscribe to, ranks them by real profit, and shows you the math — so you can keep the dually moving.
Hot shot doesn't wait. A good partial pops on the board and it's gone in four minutes while you're fueling the dually. So you tell Loady once — lane, deck length, your rate floor — and it searches every matching partial and expedited run and ranks them by what you'd take home. No thumbing DAT at the pump. No booking a run that won't clear your fuel and your gooseneck.
She's answering right now.
Demo calls use sample loads ranked by Loady's real engine — she'll tell you that herself.
The good partials are gone before you see them
Expedited and LTL-style runs move fast. By the time you pull over, unlock your phone, and scroll, the load that fit your deck is already booked by whoever called first.
Non-CDL math is easy to get wrong
Plenty of hot shot rigs run under the CDL weight threshold — but a load that pushes your combined weight over the line costs you more than it pays. That is a mental calc at 70 mph.
Small loads, thin margins
A hot shot run that looks fine on the board can lose money once you back out fuel and deadhead. On short partials there isn't much room to be wrong.
Not a board. A dispatcher that works the one you have.
She searches DAT and Truckstop — we'll help you get your DAT API access (takes a few minutes with your DAT rep); Truckstop already runs on Loady's own partner connection. She ranks what she finds and shows you the math. You stay in the driver's seat on every booking.
Ranks by profit per day, not headline rate
Loady scores every matching load on estimated net profit per day — pay minus fuel, empty miles, and drive time — so a $900 partial that runs clean can beat a $1,200 one that deadheads you across the state.
Estimates the rate when pay is not posted
A lot of the hot shot board is 'call for rate.' When pay isn't posted and Loady has a market read for the lane, it drops in an estimate so you know roughly where the load should land before anyone dials.
Writes the broker email so you keep driving
When a load looks right, Loady can write the broker email for you. You review it and hit send. You approve every booking — Loady never books without your OK.
Checks the broker before you commit
Brokers are checked against FMCSA records and flagged if they fail an authority check, so you are not chasing a broker with no active authority for a $700 partial.
What a free hot shot load board actually gets you.
People search 'free hot shot load board' for a reason — the seats aren't cheap. Here's the honest picture, and where Loady fits.
- Truly-free boards exist, but the hot shot and partial volume that actually pays lives on the paid seats (DAT, Truckstop) that brokers post to.
- Free tiers usually hide rates, throttle searches, or show older loads — fine for a look, thin for running a truck full-time.
- Loady is not a free board and does not pretend to be one. It works whichever board you already pay for and squeezes more out of it.
Loady isn't free either: it's in beta at $10/month. Sample mode lets you try a real search before you connect a board.
Honest requirements. No surprises.
Bring the board seat you already pay for
Loady searches your DAT and Truckstop subscriptions. It is not a board and does not resell load data — it makes the seat you already have work harder.
Try it on sample loads first
No seat yet? Sample mode runs a real Find Loads search on clearly-labeled sample freight so you can see how Loady ranks and explains loads before you connect anything. Booking real freight needs a connected board.
Your authority and your OK
You approve every booking. Loady is in beta at $10/month.
Questions carriers actually ask.
Is Loady a free hot shot load board?
No. Loady is not a load board at all — it's an AI dispatcher that searches the boards you already subscribe to, like DAT and Truckstop. There's no free board hidden inside it. Loady itself is in beta at $10/month, and sample mode lets you run a real search before connecting a board.
Do I still need a DAT or Truckstop subscription?
To book real freight, yes — Loady works the seat you already pay for. You can try Loady first on sample loads without any board connected, then plug in your subscription when you are ready to run for real.
Does Loady handle non-CDL hot shot loads?
Loady searches hot shot loads on your board and ranks them by profit. Whether a specific load keeps you under the CDL weight threshold is on you and your rig — Loady surfaces the run and the numbers; you decide if it fits your setup.
Will Loady book a load without asking me?
No. Loady finds and ranks the load and can write the broker email for you, but nothing is booked without your OK.
What does Loady cost?
Loady is in beta. Beta carriers pay $10/month, locked in for their first 12 months, and can cancel anytime. After that, Loady's standard price applies (currently $200/month), and we'll email you at least 30 days before your price changes. It's a beta, so expect a few rough edges, and tell us about them so we can fix them.
One search finds the load, ranks it by what you'd take home, and shows you the math.
