NEXT Trucking (branded "NEXT") is a FreightTech company founded in 2015 and headquartered in the Los Angeles area, operating a digital freight marketplace focused on drayage at the Ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach, plus transloading, full-truckload over-the-road and expedited (NEXTpedited) service. Its technology core is ATLAS, a proprietary transportation management system that carries a container from delivery-order ingestion through job creation, dispatch, billing and payout, and that connects shippers, carriers, terminals, yards and chassis providers. The company markets EDI and API connectivity alongside its shipper/carrier portals and driver mobile apps, but publishes no developer portal, no API reference and no machine-readable contract: its service gateway answers every anonymous request with HTTP 401. NEXT was acquired by Chicago-based digital freight broker CDL 1000 in February 2024; the nexttrucking.com brand, marketplace and applications remain live. Backers before the acquisition included Sequoia Capital, Brookfield Growth, GLP Capital and Mucker Capital.
