Charge third-party businesses (e.g., e-commerce stores, restaurants) for integrating your delivery services directly into their checkout process via an API.

In-App Advertising

Feature promotional content or advertisements from partner businesses within the customer app, such as logistics companies, packing suppliers, or local stores.

HaulConnect

Industry: B2B Freight Marketplace

Client Overview: A tech company aiming to create a B2B marketplace connecting shippers with independent carriers, similar to a "Uber for Trucking". They needed a complex, multi-tenant platform with robust bidding, tracking, and payment systems.


"Building a two-sided marketplace is incredibly complex. CIS's architectural expertise was crucial. They built a secure, scalable platform that handles our complex bidding and payment logic flawlessly."

- Carter Fleming, CTO, HaulConnect

The Challenge: Marketplace Complexity

The platform needed to serve two distinct user types (shippers and carriers) with different needs. It required a secure bidding system, reliable load tracking, automated invoicing, and a trusted escrow-based payment system to facilitate transactions between parties.

  • Ensuring secure multi-party financial transactions.
  • Building a system for document management (Bill of Lading, Proof of Delivery).
  • Creating trust and transparency for both shippers and carriers.

Our AI-Enabled Solution:

We architected a multi-tenant platform with separate portals for shippers and carriers, unified by a central admin panel. Security and reliability were the top priorities.

  • Developed a real-time bidding engine and a smart matching algorithm.
  • Integrated a secure payment gateway with escrow functionality.
  • Built a digital document management and e-signature feature.
  • Implemented a reputation system based on verified reviews and completion rates.
