FreightWise
- Brentwood, Tennessee
FreightWise is a logistics software and managed transportation services company that combines its proprietary TMS platforms (Kuebix and OnKue) with supply chain design, carrier contracting, and freight audit and payment to deliver enterprise-level shipping intelligence and savings to small and mid-sized shippers.
Perfect for
FreightWise is best suited for small to mid-sized brands, manufacturers, and distributors that ship via LTL, parcel, and full truckload and want enterprise-level technology and rates without enterprise-level overhead.
- Companies without in-house IT or dedicated transportation teams who need a partner to operate as an extension of their operations
- Shippers spending between $1M and $80M+ annually on freight who want to reduce costs through better carrier strategy, auditing, and consolidated invoicing
- Multi-location businesses that need to deploy a TMS across dozens of sites quickly, as demonstrated by customers like Mallory Safety and Supply (36 locations)
- Small shippers looking for an affordable entry point into TMS technology via OnKue starting at $69/month
- Operations, finance, and executive teams seeking better visibility into transportation spend, carrier performance, and cost-to-serve metrics
Key strengths
Tiered product lineup (OnKue, Kuebix, Managed Transportation) scales from $69/month SMB plans to full-service enterprise solutions, accommodating businesses at every stage
Managed Transportation Solution requires zero upfront capital investment and operates on a shared-savings model, aligning incentives with customer outcomes
Over $1B in freight under management gives FreightWise significant carrier negotiating leverage, saving customers an average of 17% annually
Recognized in the 2025 Gartner Midmarket Context: Magic Quadrant for TMS, validating its credibility as a midmarket-focused platform
Connected to 200+ carriers out-of-the-box with flexible API integrations to ERPs, WMS, OMS, and accounting systems via multiple transport protocols (SFTP, AS2, API)
Considerations
FreightWise TMS is only available as part of the Managed Transportation Solution package; it cannot be purchased as a standalone self-managed TMS
OnKue has quote limits (100-800/month depending on tier) and does not support ERP or WMS integrations, requiring an upgrade to Kuebix for API connectivity
Primarily focused on U.S. domestic shipping with LTL, parcel, and truckload modes; no mention of international freight forwarding or ocean/air cargo capabilities
Lower-tier plans (OnKue and Kuebix SMB) offer only self-guided support and training, with no dedicated account manager

About FreightWise
FreightWise is a Brentwood, Tennessee-based logistics technology and managed transportation company that democratizes transportation intelligence for small and mid-sized shippers. Founded in 2014, the company expanded significantly in 2023 with the acquisition of Kuebix, a pioneering SaaS-based TMS platform originally founded in 2008. Together, FreightWise and Kuebix serve over 4,000 users who send tens of thousands of loads per day, with more than $1 billion in freight under management annually. The company saves customers an average of 17% per year on transportation costs through its managed transportation solution.
FreightWise offers three distinct product tiers to match different shipper needs. Kuebix TMS is the full-featured, multi-modal transportation management system trusted for over 15 years by midmarket and larger shippers, providing rate quoting, booking, tracking, BI and analytics, appointment scheduling, and API connectivity to ERPs, WMS, and OMS platforms. OnKue is the "Kuebix lite" solution designed for smaller shippers, starting at just $69/month with no implementation time required and a 2-month free trial. For companies needing more than technology alone, the FreightWise Managed Transportation Solution bundles proprietary TMS technology with supply chain design, rate optimization, carrier contracting, freight audit and payment, and business intelligence, all with zero upfront capital investment.
FreightWise connects to over 200 transportation carriers directly from its TMS and offers a Preferred Carrier Program that gives shippers access to negotiated rates without contracts. The company has earned significant industry recognition, including placement in the 2025 Gartner Midmarket Context: Magic Quadrant for Transportation Management Systems, the 2026 SupplyTech Breakthrough Award for Transport Management Solution of the Year, and recognition as an Inbound Logistics Top 100 Logistics and Supply Chain Technology Provider. CEO Chris Cochran was named an EY Entrepreneur of the Year finalist, and the company held a spot on the Inc. 5000 list for six consecutive years, reaching the number two position in 2019.
