About TextLocate
TextLocate is a premier solution for logistics communication and visibility, automating tasks such as check calls and POD processing while keeping everyone informed with real-time SMS updates tied to Load ID. With SMS-based updates, communicating with drivers is easier than ever. Updates are organized by Load ID, allowing teams to receive critical load updates, send reminders, and notify drivers of changes in real-time. At the end of a load, TextLocate automatically triggers POD requests via text, streamlining document indexing and improving efficiency. Teams can also respond instantly to driver SMS conversations, ensuring full visibility throughout the load lifecycle. Its phone verification process detects suspicious activity, providing a critical layer of fraud prevention. As an added safeguard, one-time location requests help track drivers who fall off app-based tools, ensuring continuous load visibility and security. For more information, visit www.textlocate.com.
