Built so carriers never get burned twice.
BrokerTell is the trucking industry's review platform — a place where carriers and shippers share honest experiences with freight brokers so the next driver knows what they're getting into.
Our mission
Trucking runs on trust — and a single bad broker can wipe out a small carrier's month. We're building the public record the industry has needed for decades: verified reviews, transparent payment data, and a level playing field where brokers earn their reputation one load at a time.
What we stand for
Verified voices
Every review comes from a verified carrier or shipper — no anonymous noise, no paid placements.
Fair to both sides
Brokers can respond, dispute, and claim their profile. Truth, not takedowns.
Radical transparency
Payment timelines, ratings, and dispute outcomes are public. The data speaks for itself.
Carrier-first
We exist to protect the small fleets and owner-operators who keep America moving.
Who we are
BrokerTell was founded in 2026 by a small team of former dispatchers, owner-operators, and logistics engineers based in Chicago. We've collectively booked tens of thousands of loads — and we've all been stiffed on a rate confirmation at least once. That experience is the reason this platform exists.
