Introduction
Welcome to FreightMath
Everything a FreightMath practitioner needs — from the first login to the math behind every number.
FreightMath is a precision Activity-Based Costing platform for truckload carriers. Every dollar in your general ledger is standardized through MapLedger, distributed to individual load segments, and rolled back up into an Operating Ratio you can trust at the load, lane, customer, and network level.
These Client Resources are organized the way most teams learn the platform: get oriented in a live demo, work the Quick Start, follow the path for your role, and reach for the methodology references when a number needs defending.
Where to begin
Most practitioners get the fastest results by following this sequence. Each step builds on the last.
- 1
Open a live demo
See the dashboard suite on synthetic data before you touch your own — get comfortable with the OR views, slicers, and page layout.
- 2
Work the Quick Start Guide
Four steps — Quick Triage, Baseline Review, Trend Exploration, Operational Refinement — that turn a first login into a repeatable analytical habit.
- 3
Pick your role path
Executive, Sales, Pricing, Operations, Dispatch, or Finance: each path lists the pages, KPIs, and weekly workflows that matter to you.
- 4
Go deep on the methodology
When a number needs defending, the Segment Level Costing, MapLedger, and Workday Model references trace every dollar back to the GL.
