Brentwood – September 23, 2026 -- FreightWise, which manages over $1 billion in annual freight through its Kuebix TMS platform, has been named to the 2027 FreightTech100 list by FreightWaves, an industry recognition awarded to just 100 companies out of a record nominee pool.
More than half of this year's FreightTech100 list consists of newcomers, underscoring rapid sector turnover
Now in its eighth year, the FreightTech Awards saw FreightWaves' Research team evaluate nominees on documented innovation, market impact, and year-over-year technology evolution. FreightWise's inclusion follows what CEO Chris Cochran called one of the most active product development years in the company's history.
FreightWise launched FreightWise Intelligence, embedding enterprise-grade analytics into its TMS for smaller shippers
Earlier in 2026, the company rolled out FreightWise Intelligence, a data visualization and business intelligence tool built directly into the Kuebix platform. The feature gives small and mid-sized shippers visibility into cost drivers, service issues, carrier performance, and actionable opportunities across every transport mode -- capabilities historically reserved for larger enterprise shippers.
Kuebix earned FedEx Compatible Community Tier certification, reinforcing its SMB and mid-market positioning
The certification adds to a broader technology push at FreightWise, which is embedding artificial intelligence more deeply into its core TMS solutions, expanding its carrier connection library toward what it describes as the largest in the industry, and broadening truckload capabilities.
"Being named to the FreightTech100 reflects the pace of innovation our team has driven this year," said Cochran. "From introducing FreightWise Intelligence to the AI capabilities we're building into our TMS platform, this has been one of the most active product development years in the history of FreightWise."
FreightWaves will announce its narrower FreightTech25 rankings at the F3 Awards Dinner on Oct. 26, 2026
The full 2027 FreightTech100 list is published on FreightWaves' website, with the more selective FreightTech25 subset to be revealed live at the upcoming awards dinner.
