Frequently asked questions
Loadsmart scores C on Supergood's API Report Card. Loadsmart documents ShipperGuide TMS and Opendock REST APIs with OAuth2 and HMAC-signed webhooks. Credentials are partner-gated: active Shipper or Carrier accounts request them through an account manager. The webhook catalog is early, with one event live.
Loadsmart has an official API, but teams routinely hit its limits: gated access, partial coverage, or paid tiers. Most end up supplementing it with exports or an unofficial API layer like Supergood. Site terms may apply to any integration approach, and how they apply is a determination each team makes for itself.
Loadsmart is a digital freight brokerage and logistics technology company that combines a brokered carrier network with a software portfolio spanning shipper TMS, carrier TMS, dock scheduling, yard management, and AI freight analytics.
Primary vertical: Fleet / Trucking / Logistics, specifically mid-market and enterprise shippers, freight brokers, warehouse operators with active inbound/outbound docks, and asset-based carriers. A shipper logs into ShipperGuide, creates a shipment, requests instant rates across modes (FTL/LTL/drayage/intermodal), books capacity with Loadsmart brokerage or a contracted carrier, and dispatches a tender.
Mid-to-high inside the digital freight brokerage and TMS niche.
Loadsmart APIs sit on the money path: every spot rate quote, tender, and booking creates a financial obligation between shipper, broker, and carrier; every dock appointment in Opendock controls live yard capacity at customer DCs; every tracking event drives detention/layover calculations that directly determine accessorial billing.
Loadsmart was founded in 2014 in New York City and grew quickly during the 2020–2022 freight boom, raising a $200M Series D in 2021.
Supergood's grades measure one thing: can a customer's engineering team get their own data out programmatically? Supergood checks six things (whether a real API exists, how access is gated, data coverage, auth quality, docs and developer experience, and stability) and rolls them into a letter grade. Supergood re-verifies grades, and they only move on evidence.
Yes, via a managed API layer. Supergood builds REST APIs and MCP servers for authenticated enterprise web apps, so AI agents and internal tools can read and write data programmatically. Site terms may apply to any integration approach, and how they apply is a determination each team makes for itself.
Not that we could find. As of August 2026 there is no official Loadsmart MCP server in any public registry, and no maintained community server we're aware of. We re-verify this periodically — report an inaccuracy below if we missed one.
Not natively. Loadsmart doesn't publish an MCP server, so MCP clients like Claude, Cursor, and Codex have nothing to connect to out of the box. If that changes, this page will reflect it.
