Tread

AI features added to established product Materials, supply chain & procurement

WHAT IT DOES

Dump truck dispatch software for bulk materials: quotes from saved rates, daily dispatch orders, assignment of company and third-party trucks, a live map with ETAs, digital and scale ticket capture where AI reads photographed or texted paper tickets and checks quantity, date and ticket number against the job (flagging possible duplicates), then customer invoicing and driver/hauler settlements. Pricing page lists direct scale-ticket integrations with WEM, Astec and Command Alkon APEX, QuickBooks Online, and webhooks for orders, jobs, loads and tickets. Vendor says 10,000+ drivers run on Tread daily and that AI reads paper tickets at 95%+ (vendor claims, not verified). The old tread.io domain redirects to tread.ai.

WHO IT'S FOR

Material producers (quarries, asphalt plants, mines), bulk haulers and brokers, and heavy civil, DOT and public works contractors moving aggregate, asphalt and fill.
