Which one fits your operation?
BeyondTrucks
You are a private fleet or specialized transportation company whose edge is complex, specialized or service forward operations rather than volume of standardized, repeat-stop deliveries.
You want a single system of record for dispatch, driver workflows, rating, billing and settlement, not a routing and telematics suite layered on top of a separate back-office system.
Your dispatch planning logic needs to incorporate driver availability, qualifications and preferences alongside equipment availability, specifications and status, such as product qualification or trailer wash requirements.
You run bulk, chemical, construction, agricultural or food-grade operations where unique and real-time constraint handling is as important as route sequencing.
You want AI-driven assignment optimization plus coding agents that help configure the platform, rather than a suite of separately licensed routing modules.
Roadnet
You run a high-frequency local or regional delivery operation, where dense repeat-stop routing is the primary problem.
You want an established, long-standing routing and territory-planning product with a multi-decade track record in private fleet distribution and solve optimization problems where AI is not making a meaningful difference.
Common Questions
Can Roadnet help you manage your transportation operations?
Not in the way BeyondTrucks can. Roadnet Technologies sells the Roadnet Transportation Suite, which is a routing, territory-planning, load-building and GPS dispatch-tracking product set. It doesn't include rating, billing or settlement, so it typically runs alongside a separate back-office or fleet management system.
How is BeyondTrucks different from Roadnet?
BeyondTrucks is a single operating platform where dispatch, driver workflows, rating, billing, settlement and AI-driven optimization all draw on the same live data, purpose-built for private and specialized fleets with driver and equipment qualification constraints. Roadnet is a longer-standing routing and telematics suite, strongest in high-frequency local delivery for industries, built around modules rather than a single unified operating platform.
Does Roadnet handle driver and equipment qualification constraints like BeyondTrucks?
Not as a core capability. Roadnet's strength is in stop sequencing, territory design and load building. Constraints tied to high-service fleets, such as driver product certifications, trailer last-contained product history and wash scheduling, sit outside what the suite was built to manage.
What's the difference in company history and focus?
Roadnet Technologies, now part of Omnitracs, has focused on routing and scheduling software since 1983, with particular depth in beverage distribution through its FleetLoader product. BeyondTrucks is a newer, AI-native platform built from the ground up for complex or high-service private and specialized, with optimization as a native part of dispatch rather than a separate module. Headquartered in Silicon Valley, the company includes some of the industry’s most experienced transportation operators, fleet technologists, as well as some of the world’s pre-eminent optimization & AI researchers trained at Harvard and Stanford.
Which is better for specialized or bulk freight outside of beverage?
BeyondTrucks. Roadnet's constraint handling and load building were built primarily around high-frequency local delivery and beverage distribution. Fleets in chemical, construction materials or other bulk operations with driver qualification, product-specific equipment and trailer wash requirements need constraint modeling that Roadnet's suite wasn't designed around.
How does pricing compare?
Neither company publishes list pricing. Roadnet has historically licensed per module and per vehicle, on top of whatever back-office or fleet management system a customer already runs. BeyondTrucks uses subscription pricing for a single platform that removes the need to license and integrate a separate routing suite.
