Book hotshots, dedicated routes, LTL, and preferred carriers from one account—with live tracking and digital PODs. updated: 2026-09-15 --- Curri is a B2B last-mile and industrial delivery platform for construction and industrial supply distributors. From one account, teams book **Hotshots**, run **Dedicated** routes, manage preferred carriers with **Carrier Management**, plan multi-stop routes in **Route Planner**, and tender **LTL**—with live tracking and digital proof of delivery. Curri is built so distributors can cover rush jobsites, overflow, and recurring freight without treating every mode as a separate vendor relationship. ## What is Curri? Curri helps distributors and industrial shippers move freight to jobsites, branches, and customers. The platform combines on-demand capacity, recurring dedicated trucks, carrier onboarding, route planning, and LTL in one workflow—backed by **Core Intelligence** on [Curri AI](/ai) for pricing, documents, and exceptions. ## Products (one account) | Product | What it is | Page | | --- | --- | --- | | Hotshots | One load, one truck—rush, same-day, or scheduled. | [/hotshots](/hotshots) | | Dedicated | A recurring truck and driver for your routes. | [/dedicated](/dedicated) | | Carrier Management | Onboard, rate, and book preferred carriers. | [/carrier-management](/carrier-management) | | Route Planner | Plan and optimize multi-stop routes. | [/route-planner](/route-planner) | | LTL | Less-than-truckload freight through Curri. | [/ltl](/ltl) | | Curri API | Quote, book, and track from your systems. | [/apps/curri-api](/apps/curri-api) | See the full [platform overview](/platform). ## How industrial distributors handle same-day jobsite delivery 1. **Book the move** — Pickup, drop-off, and payload in Curri; compare hotshot, dedicated, LTL, or other modes in one place. 2. **Match the vehicle** — Cargo vans, Sprinters, box trucks, flatbeds, and other types are matched to the load (see [fleet](/fleet) for vehicle types). 3. **Track in real time** — Shippers and customers get tracking links and ETAs while the delivery is active. 4. **Close the loop** — POs, BOLs, invoices, POD photos, and digital signatures stay with the delivery record. For last-mile positioning, see [/deliveries/last-mile-delivery](/deliveries/last-mile-delivery). ## Who Curri is for - **Building materials and industrial distributors** needing same-day and overflow capacity alongside an owned fleet - **HVAC, plumbing, electrical, and solar suppliers** moving bulky, time-sensitive materials - **Ops and logistics leaders** consolidating hotshots, dedicated routes, and preferred carriers on one board Industry examples: [/industries/building-materials](/industries/building-materials). ## Curri vs own fleet or a traditional courier | Topic | Own fleet only | Courier-only tools | Curri | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Overflow and rush | Limited by truck count and driver hours | Often parcel-oriented | Hotshots and network capacity alongside your fleet | | Recurring lanes | You hire and manage drivers | May not cover dedicated industrial lanes | [Dedicated](/dedicated) capacity in the same account | | Preferred carriers | Spreadsheets and phone | Separate systems | [Carrier Management](/carrier-management) | | Multi-stop days | Manual dispatch | Varies | [Route Planner](/route-planner) | | Palletized freight | Your assets or a separate broker | Not always available | [LTL](/ltl) in the same workflow | Many teams keep core routes on owned trucks and use Curri for overflow, after-hours moves, and lanes where owned capacity is thin—not necessarily as a full fleet replacement. ## On-demand delivery for building materials distributors Distributors use Curri to say yes to jobsite deliveries when the dock is full, the contractor needs a rush part, or a branch needs an extra truck without adding headcount. Modes include rush [hotshots](/hotshots), [dedicated](/dedicated) capacity, [carrier management](/carrier-management) for your partners, and [LTL](/ltl) when freight is palletized. ## Customer proof (verbatim from site testimonials) > "Curri has been a life saver for us and our customers!

Curri is a B2B last-mile and industrial delivery platform for construction and industrial supply distributors. Teams use one account for Hotshots, Dedicated routes, Carrier Management, Route Planner, and LTL—with live tracking and digital PODs. ### Is Curri a replacement for our own fleet? Not necessarily. Many customers keep owned trucks for core routes and use Curri for overflow, rush jobsites, after-hours moves, and thin markets. Dedicated Curri capacity can run alongside your fleet from the same board. ### What kinds of deliveries does Curri handle? Rush and same-day hotshots, recurring dedicated routes, preferred-carrier bookings, multi-stop route planning, and LTL—for construction and industrial materials that need the right vehicle and proof of delivery. ### Where does Curri operate? Curri serves distributors and industrial shippers across the United States; see market pages under `/locations/` (listed on [/sitemap](/sitemap)) and [/canada](/canada) for Canada. Vehicle and mode availability vary by lane—use [/demo](/demo) or rate shopping in the product for a specific move. ### How is Curri different from a courier app or traditional freight broker? Curri combines on-demand hotshots, dedicated capacity, carrier management, route planning, and LTL in one platform oriented to industrial distributors—not only small-parcel couriers or phone-based brokerage alone.
