The Problem
Email rate cons can cost you money
Email rate cons have zero audit trail
Disputes can drag on for weeks because there is no proof of receipt, no timestamp, and no signature. It can cost you money every time a carrier claims they never agreed to the rate.
Rate shopping and driver no-shows
Without a binding commitment mechanism, a carrier can accept your load then keep shopping for a better rate. The driver never shows, and your customer is left waiting.
No legally defensible signatures
A screenshot of an email thread is not a legal document. Without IP logging, timestamps, and device verification, a rate con may not hold up in a dispute.
From rate con to signed contract in under 59 minutes
Rate con generated. Sent to carrier app. Timer starts. Driver opens, e-signs, gets verified. Tracking activates. All in under 59 minutes.
“Timestamp on design, from what device they signed, everything to prove this is a real eSignature.”

Blind rate confirmations
Generate two versions of every rate confirmation automatically. Brokers see the full rate; drivers see only pickup, delivery, and dispatch instructions. Margins stay protected.
“A mini ratecon for the driver without the rate.”
· Vektor product demo
- Broker view shows full rate and customer details
- Driver view redacts rate, shows dispatch instructions only
- Toggle between views instantly before sending
E-signature system with IP/device tracking
Every signature is captured with a full forensic chain: IP address, device fingerprint, UTC timestamp, and geolocation. ESIGN Act compliant and court-defensible.
- IP address logged at moment of signature
- Device fingerprint captured automatically
- UTC timestamp recorded for legal defensibility
- Geolocation verified at signing
Tender status board
See every active tender in one dashboard. Know instantly which rate cons are sent, viewed, accepted, expired, or rejected. Extend or resend expired tenders in one click.

Driver verification at acceptance
When a carrier accepts a tender, the driver must verify identity and activate tracking before departure. No unsigned loads, no unauthorized pickups.
“They are entering it while they are accepting the tender.”
· Vektor product demo
- Driver photo capture at acceptance
- CDL/license verification badge
- LiveVision tracking auto-activates on acceptance
