Tenstreet built a hiring network out of paperwork
A fax replacement became a meeting place for truck drivers and the fleets that need them. Tenstreet’s advantage is the work neither side has to repeat.

The 40-Year-Old Software Company Running the Boring, Expensive Parts of Trucking

PrePass Sells Truckers a Green Light - and Turns Five Minutes Into a Fleet Strategy
For more than 30 years, PrePass has sold fleets something gloriously unromantic: fewer stops. The trick is turning a green light at the scale house into lower fuel burn, cleaner toll books and a reason for drivers to stay.
Hemut
Hemut is an AI-native operating system for trucking companies. It replaces the fragmented, legacy back-office software that carriers and brokers rely on with a single platform that automates dispatch, load booking, quoting, tracking, accounting, and inbound/outbound phone calls using AI agents. Founded in 2024 and part of Y Combinator's Spring 2025 batch, Hemut targets mid-sized fleets in the roughly $875B American trucking market.
PortPro
PortPro is a New Jersey-based software company that builds a drayage-specific operating platform - a transportation management system (TMS) purpose-built for the container trucking companies and freight brokers that move ocean containers between ports, rail yards and warehouses. Its drayOS platform handles order entry, dispatch, container tracking, appointment setting, billing and driver payments in one system, and in 2025 it layered on 'Jerry' and 'Helen,' agentic-AI teammates that dispatch loads, validate documents and generate invoices automatically. Founded by Michael Mecca, who grew up in the drayage business, PortPro raised a $12M Series A led by Avenue Growth Partners in 2023 and serves hundreds of drayage carriers and brokers across North America.
SmartHop
SmartHop is a Miami-based trucking technology company that gives small fleets and owner-operators a business-in-a-box platform. It pairs AI-driven load recommendations and full-service dispatch with fintech tools - fuel cards, payments, and insurance - so independent truckers can compete with large carriers without drowning in paperwork.
