Finance, safety compliance, and driver payroll for how freight actually moves
Per-load and per-lane costing, fuel and settlements, DOT and FMCSA safety compliance, and driver payroll in one AI system, so a load is profitable or not before the invoice, and the safety file is not a shoebox.
Illustrative product view
Finance: per-load costing, fuel, settlements, and factoring
A carrier does not have a monthly P&L problem, it has a per-load one. Fintra uses a dimensional GL, so fuel, tolls, driver pay, and maintenance code to the load and lane they belong to and roll up into revenue-per-mile and net-per-load, rather than sitting in generic expense accounts that hide which lanes lose money.
- Per-load and per-lane costing: revenue and direct cost attach to the load through the dimensional GL, so lane profitability is real, not estimated.
- Fuel: fuel-card and toll spend is captured and assigned to loads through corporate-card and expense capture (IFTA fuel-tax filing is not generated today).
- Settlements and factoring: carrier and owner-operator settlement automation and factoring-advance integration are on the roadmap; today the amounts are tracked and posted, but the settlement run and factoring feed are not turnkey.
- Cash flow: because freight cash is lumpy, cash-flow projection and working-capital views sit on the same ledger.
Security & compliance: DOT, FMCSA, hazmat, C-TPAT, and OSHA
Transportation compliance is safety and security compliance. Fintra tracks the relevant regimes as frameworks in its GRC library, maps your controls and driver-file requirements to them, and gives you rule-based, explainable monitoring with expiry reminders, so a lapsed medical certificate or a missing hazmat endorsement surfaces before an audit does.
| Regime | What it governs | How Fintra helps |
|---|---|---|
| DOT / FMCSA | Carrier safety, driver qualification, hours-of-service | Driver-file and control tracking with expiry reminders; not an ELD or the HOS system of record |
| Hazmat | Hazardous-materials endorsements and handling | Endorsement and training tracking as controls with evidence |
| C-TPAT | Supply-chain security for cross-border trade | Control mapping and evidence for the security profile |
| OSHA | Workplace safety for yards, docks, and shops | Incident and training tracking mapped to controls |
HR: driver certification, hours-of-service, and certified payroll
- Driver certification: CDL class and endorsements, medical certificates, and training sit in employee records with rule-based expiry reminders.
- Hours-of-service: HOS status is tracked against the driver file, though Fintra is not an ELD and is not the HOS system of record.
- Payroll: multi-state, multi-rate driver payroll (per-mile, hourly, detention) runs gross-to-net in integer cents and posts to the GL; certified and prevailing-wage payroll data is produced for jobs that require it.
Frequently asked questions
Can Fintra show profit by load or by lane?
Yes. A dimensional GL attaches fuel, driver pay, tolls, and allocated cost to the load and lane, so you see revenue per mile and net per load rather than lump-sum expense accounts. This is real today; the automated settlement and factoring feeds around it are still roadmap.
Does Fintra replace my ELD?
No. Fintra tracks hours-of-service status against the driver file and flags issues, but it is not an ELD and is not the HOS system of record. It complements the ELD by keeping the qualification file, payroll, and safety controls in one place.
How does it handle DOT and FMCSA compliance?
DOT, FMCSA, hazmat, C-TPAT, and OSHA are tracked as frameworks in the GRC library. Fintra maps driver-file and control requirements to them and gives rule-based expiry reminders and an evidence trail. The scoring is explainable guidance, not a safety attestation.
Can it run driver payroll?
Yes. Multi-state, multi-rate driver payroll (per-mile, hourly, detention) runs gross-to-net in integer cents with a per-check invariant and posts a balanced journal entry to the GL. Certified-payroll data is produced, though the WH-347-style form generator is on the roadmap.
What logistics features are still on the roadmap?
Automated carrier and owner-operator settlement runs, factoring-advance integration, and IFTA fuel-tax filing are roadmap. The per-load costing, payroll, and GRC layers themselves are real today.
