What is Alvys?
Alvys is a cloud-native Transportation Management System (TMS) built by trucking and logistics industry veterans for asset-based carriers, freight brokers, and hybrid carrier-broker operations. Alvys consolidates load management, dispatch, driver management, compliance, accounting, and operational analytics within a unified platform to eliminate the need for disjointed point solutions. Headquartered in Solana Beach, California, the platform is, according to the vendor, utilized by over 3,000 trucking companies.
