    Use case

    Who this is for.

    For dispatchers and logistics coordinators managing daily freight operations who need to prevent unauthorised carriers from accessing or handling shipments.

    Customer problems

    What does not work today.

    • 1

      Look-alike domains and spoofed numbers redirect briefings to fake carriers.

    • 2

      A counterfeit ID and a matching livery is enough to walk a load out of the gate.

    • 3

      After the loss, there's no audit trail strong enough to recover from the insurer or pursue the perpetrator.

    Solution

    What we do instead.

    • Briefings flow only to verified carriers in the network. look-alike inboxes never appear in your dispatch list.

    • Drivers carry a QR bound to their verified employer; a phantom has no valid driver to attach to your load.

    • Every step is timestamped and source-cited. investigators and insurers see exactly what happened.

    Objections

    Honest answers.

    This sounds like a lot of work to set up with all our carriers and drivers.

    Trusted Carrier allows you to invite your regular carriers with a single click. Most carriers are already verified and ready to connect.

    What if a verified carrier uses an unverified driver for a pickup?

    Trusted Carrier verifies both carrier and driver in real time. If a driver is not verified to that carrier, access is denied at the gate.

    FAQ

    Three answers.

    What if a fraudster registers a real-looking company?+

    Verification sources from registries: HRB age, beneficial owners, sanctions, address mismatch. shell signatures are visible before the first load.

    Does the gate need a special scanner?+

    No. A standard mobile browser scans the QR. No hardware, no app.

    Is the audit trail accepted by insurers?+

    Yes. KRAVAG and insurers in the cooperation consume it directly; it's signed and source-cited.

    Verified once. Trusted everywhere.
