Axon Software API
No public API, stated outright by independent software directories. Integration is limited to prebuilt ELD and telematics connectors (Samsara, Motive, Omnitracs) that Axon built itself; everything else leaves the system as CSV or Excel exports.
Frequently asked questions
Axon Software scores D on the API Report Card. No public API, stated outright by independent software directories. Integration is limited to prebuilt ELD and telematics connectors (Samsara, Motive, Omnitracs) that Axon built itself; everything else leaves the system as CSV or Excel exports.
Without a usable official API, teams fall back on manual exports, file drops, or one-off vendor integrations. The other option is an unofficial API layer like Supergood that automates the authenticated web app directly.
Axon Software is a real-time, fully integrated trucking transportation management system (TMS) founded in 1982 by Ken Sparrow and Andrew McKinlay and headquartered in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, Canada.
Vertical: Fleet / Trucking / Logistics, specifically trucking-focused TMS with integrated accounting. A carrier's dispatcher enters loads/orders in Axon, assigns drivers and equipment, and dispatches via the integrated driver mobile app or third-party ELD (Samsara, Motive, Omnitracs, PeopleNet, Zonar, ISAAC) that feeds GPS location and Hours-of-Service data back into the TMS.
4/10 within trucking TMS.
Yes, for the ~105 documented carrier organizations running on it, Axon is the system of record for the entire trucking operation: order/load management (customer, lane, commodity, rate, equipment assignment), dispatch and driver assignment, real-time GPS and Hours-of-Service (sourced from Samsara/Motive/Omnitracs/PeopleNet/Zonar/ISAAC integrations), customer invoicing and accounts receivable, driver pay/settlements (per-mile, per-load, percentage, hourly with deductions and advances), fuel purchase records and IFTA jurisdiction-mile reporting, equipment maintenance records and work orders, document imaging (BOLs, PODs, trip envelopes), and the full general ledger, AP/AR, and financial statements.
Founded 1982 in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan by Ken Sparrow and Andrew McKinlay; pivoted to trucking-only in 1995. At ~44 years old, Axon is one of the oldest continuously operated trucking TMS vendors and is firmly in the 'legacy ISV modernized to cloud' camp.

Grades measure one thing: can a customer's engineering team get their own data out programmatically? We check six things (whether a real API exists, how access is gated, data coverage, auth quality, docs and developer experience, and stability) and roll them into a letter grade. Grades get re-verified, and they only move on evidence.
Yes. Supergood maintains an unofficial Axon Software API and MCP server so AI agents and internal tools can read and write Axon Software data. See the Axon Software integration docs at supergood.ai/docs/axon-software-api.
