x12port Load Board
The company says it is remote-first with no physical headquarters and lists a registered mailing address in Las Vegas, Nevada.
What it is
x12port Load Board is a private freight marketplace for brokers, shippers, 3PLs, small trucking companies, and dispatchers. Account holders invite specific carriers, keeping loads off a public board and avoiding per-post fees. The service sends EDI 204 Motor Carrier Load Tenders directly to carrier systems and records acceptances or declines through EDI 990 responses. EDI 214 in-transit and delivery messages update the pipeline, while carriers can submit EDI 210 freight invoices. The listed transaction sets also include the 211 Motor Carrier Bill of Lading. x12port runs on the web and through an API. Carriers can connect at no cost. Plans include Pay-As-You-Go and Sandbox free forever, plus paid plans from $199/mo. A 14-day trial provides full access without requiring a credit card. Professional lists AS2, SFTP, and API connectivity. The service describes itself as cloud-native and says it does not sell, share, or monetize customer data.
