Partner with ManLogX

A logistics technology platform that controls the freight transaction from load creation to payment, built from first-hand logistics experience and years of software development.

The opportunity

A digital freight marketplace, not just an app

ManLogX combines a two-sided marketplace (shippers and verified transporters) with the transaction infrastructure underneath it: verification, compliance, tracking, evidence and settlement. The value is in the system that controls the transaction, not in any single screen.

Problem

Road freight runs on unverifiable trust: unvetted and subcontracted operators, lost paperwork, poor visibility, disputes, and transporters waiting 30–60 days to be paid.

Solution

One system that runs the transaction through seven controlled steps: post, match, verify, move, track, deliver, settle. Each step is backed by evidence.

Product

A web platform for shippers, transporters and operations staff, an offline-first driver app, bulk contract draw-downs, and a wallet-based settlement engine. Built and working.

Business model

Free for shippers to post. A commission on every completed trip, deducted at settlement. No subscriptions.

Expansion

Built in South Africa and designed to scale globally: multi-country from the start, and multimodal by design (road first, then rail, ocean and air).

Team

First-hand logistics experience as truck owners and brokers, plus years of software development experience. Five years of domain work turned into one platform. Meet the founders.

The network effect

Every transaction makes the network stronger

  • More shippers → more loads
  • More loads → more transporters join
  • More transporters → more verified capacity
  • More capacity → faster matching, which attracts more shippers
  • More transactions → richer logistics data on lanes, rates and reliability
Defensibility

Hard to copy

  • Verification infrastructure: company, vehicle and driver vetting with expiry enforcement
  • Transaction history: every trip is evidenced end to end
  • A verified carrier network that compounds over time
  • Operational workflows for bulk draw-downs, incidents, disputes and extras
  • Freight data on lanes, tonnage, rates and performance
  • Payment infrastructure: funded trips, milestone evidence and settlement
  • Five years of domain knowledge from running trucks and brokering loads
