Dallas, TX – April 10, 2025 – Highway, the leader in Carrier Identity® solutions, announced the launch of Load Lock+ and Exclusion Intel—two powerful products—offering a major expansion to the Highway platform that delivers load-level protection, real-time tracking, and end-to-end compliance for freight brokers.
Over the past three years, Highway has helped brokers move away from assumptions to feel confident of three critical factors before a load is booked:
“Our industry has been relying on fragmented, assumption-based visibility for too long, it leaves brokers exposed to fraud and blind spots.” stated, Jordan Graft, CEO & Founder at Highway “At Highway, visibility means verification—meaning, we give brokers proof before ever booking a load. We’re setting the new standard for load-level protection, ensuring brokers have the real-time data they need to make informed, confident decisions.”
Highway’s newest offering, Load Lock+, is an extension to its Load Lock product, providing fully automated, 100% ELD-powered tracking with true visibility to a broker’s loads.

Load Lock+ leverages Highway’s unprecedented volume of direct ELD connections for the industry’s first ever automated vehicle assignment, dynamic geofencing, and proximity adaptive tracking. Delivering real-time freight visibility and minimizing risk, Load Lock+ ensures end-to-end monitoring without the guesswork.
In a recent case, Load Lock+ notified KCH Transportation, a leading provider of third-party logistics (3PL) services, of a load that was assigned to pick up in California but pinged in Minnesota instead. The instant alert allowed KCH to act fast, preventing a potential theft before it could happen.

Exclusion Intel reveals the specific exclusions within a carrier's Motor Truck Cargo Insurance policy—critical details not found on standard Certificates of Insurance (COIs).
With Exclusion Intel, you can:
By analyzing full policy documents, Highway categorizes exclusions by type, empowering brokers to make informed load assignment decisions while ensuring compliance with shipper requirements.
Secretary of State Information (Beta) provides deeper visibility by surfacing registered owners, officers, and agents directly from Secretary of State records. Highway’s automatic alerts for changes in ownership or control help detect red flags early—protecting your network from fraudulent actors posing as legitimate carriers.
Secure Rate Con Delivery provides a more secure method for you to share rate confirmations with carriers, by eliminating the need to send sensitive load information as email attachments, Highway helps prevent unauthorized access to critical shipment details that could be exploited by bad actors.
An Additional Insured Certificate of Insurance (COI) is a specialized certificate of insurance that names your organization as an additional insured party. Highway's Additional Insured COI service streamlines the process of obtaining, verifying, and maintaining these enhanced certificates.
