Our Story

Built by Freight People, for Freight People

FreightKey was founded by logistics and technology veterans who watched cargo theft and freight fraud devastate shippers, brokers, and carriers — and decided to build the solution the industry had been waiting for.

Our Mission

To eliminate freight fraud by making carrier authentication fast, accurate, and accessible to every shipper, broker, and 3PL. We believe that every load deserves to be protected — and that the technology to do it should be simple enough for a dock worker and powerful enough for a Fortune 500 logistics operation.

Freight loads at risk from unverified carriers

Cargo theft and freight fraud are not new problems — but they have exploded in sophistication and scale. Bad actors now use stolen MC numbers, forged insurance certificates, and cloned carrier identities to steal high-value freight before it ever leaves the dock. Traditional vetting methods — phone calls, manual FMCSA lookups, paper COIs — are no match for organized freight crime.
