Parade

Parade is an AI-powered capacity-management and carrier-access platform for freight brokers. It layers on top of a broker's existing Transportation Management System (TMS) and load boards to surface truck availability, syndicate loads to third-party loadboards and carriers, and digitally transact quotes and bookings. Parade's syndication APIs let integration partners search available loads, submit carrier quotes, book loads (Book Now), post available trucks, check carrier onboarding status, and receive digital-conversion and carrier-sync webhooks. Its CoDriver AI agent handles inbound carrier calls and emails. Parade is backed by Menlo Ventures and serves freight brokerages that have collectively transacted tens of billions of dollars in freight.

Parade publishes 8 APIs on the APIs.io network, including Available Trucks API, Bookings API, Carrier Onboarding Status API, and 5 more. Tagged areas include Company, Freight, Logistics, Trucking, and Supply Chain.

Parade’s developer surface includes documentation, API reference, engineering blog, signup flow, authentication, sandbox, and 16 more developer resources.
