About Log-A-Load
Built by URUP Connect (Pty) Ltd in Johannesburg, for the South African road freight market.
Why it exists
South African road freight runs on relationships, phone calls and empty return legs. Capacity sits idle in one direction while cargo waits in the other, and the terms of an engagement live in a message thread until something goes wrong and nobody can produce them.
Log-A-Load addresses the matching and the record at the same time. The load is a record, the engagement is a written agreement signed by both parties, the carrier's compliance is checked before acceptance, the trip is tracked, the delivery is evidenced, and the money is held against the load until the agreed trigger.
Who builds it
URUP Connect (Pty) Ltd is a Johannesburg based technology and business services firm working across technology, logistics, FMCG, automotive and business services, in South Africa and the wider region.
How it is built
One platform behind several surfaces: a portal for loggers and loaders, a phone application for drivers in the field, a console for partners and agents, and an internal operations platform. All of them work off one set of records, so a load has one history rather than four versions of it.
Where it is going
The platform is in active build. Operators who come on early shape what gets built next, and we would rather hear an objection now than ship around it.
