Stop guessing if a load is profitable. Plug in your fixed and variable costs once, then check any rate confirmation in seconds: this load makes me $X after fuel, maintenance, dispatch, and tax — or it doesn't. Built for owner-operators who run the numbers, not the gut. — WHAT LOADMATH DOES — • Paste the dispatcher's message. Copy the text your dispatcher or broker sent you, paste it in, and LoadMath pulls out the rate, the loaded miles, the deadhead, the lumper, the detention, the lane and the broker — then runs the numbers. No retyping a rate con in a truck stop parking lot. • Real cost per mile. Truck and trailer insurance, payments, ELD, parking, accounting, phone — plus fuel, DEF, maintenance, tires, repairs. Set them once. LoadMath works out the fixed and variable cost per mile that every load has to beat. • Load calculator. Or type it yourself: rate, loaded miles, deadhead. Net profit, profit per mile, all-in rate per mile, break-even RPM and daily profit, before you accept. • Deadhead-aware math. Empty miles to the pickup are counted in your fuel cost and your real rate per mile. No more loads that look great on paper and lose money in the cab. • Dispatch fee handled both ways. Flat dollar amount or percentage — whichever way your dispatcher charges. • Tax set-aside built in. Every load shows what to hold back. Estimates for planning, not tax advice. • Logbook. Every load you save lands in a daily, weekly or monthly logbook with totals. • Goals and deadline reminders. Weekly and monthly targets, plus reminders for quarterly estimated tax, IFTA, Form 2290 and UCR. — PREMIUM — • Unlimited saved loads. Free saves 4 loads a week. • Unlimited AI parsing. Free includes 3 dispatcher messages a week. • Document scanner. BOLs, PODs, rate confirmations and receipts scanned into the load they belong to — the same scanner as Apple Notes. • Send All. Email a broker every document for a load as one PDF. • PDF profit and loss report, ready for your accountant, factoring company or lender. • Yearly and all-time totals. What the whole year actually made — the number your accountant asks for. • CSV export. Your full logbook in Excel or Google Sheets. The calculator is free, always, and so are your daily, weekly and monthly totals. The free allowance refills every week. Premium is monthly or yearly, with a 7-day free trial on both, through your Apple ID. Cancel any time. — BUILT-IN, NOT BOLTED-ON — • Your loads, costs and documents stay on your phone. The only thing that ever leaves is the dispatcher message you choose to paste into the AI parser, and it is not stored. • English, Español, Türkçe, Русский. • No ads. No tracking. No sign-up. — WHO IT'S FOR — Owner-operators. Small fleet owners. Lease purchase drivers. Anyone who wants to stop wondering if last week made money and start knowing. — QUESTIONS / FEEDBACK — Support: https://sites.google.com/view/loadmath/support Found a bug or want a feature?

Trucker Core — It’s Not Just Another Expense Calculator Trucker Core is a daily business assistant built for owner-operators in the trucking industry. It tracks and analyzes your business — loads, miles, income, expenses, fuel, and fuel taxes. It shows how much you’re really making, where your money is going, and what you can change to keep more of it — starting today. “I made that much money… so where did it all go?” Trucker Core helps you answer that question not at the end of the year, but every day. IFTA — NOT JUST A CALCULATION, BUT A DAILY ASSISTANT At any time, tap “Calculate IFTA” to see how much fuel tax you’ve accumulated as of today and how much is owed or credited in each state. But Trucker Core goes beyond a typical IFTA calculator. The app includes a built-in IFTA Assistant. It analyzes your miles by state, fuel purchases, and current route to help identify where along your route you may want to fuel to optimize your IFTA balance and potentially reduce the final amount due. You see the situation today, while you can still make informed decisions — not after the quarter is already over. YOUR BUSINESS — TODAY, NOT A MONTH AGO Open Trucker Core at any time and see: How much you’ve earned, how much you’ve spent, your current profit, exactly where your money went, and how much you’re projected to have left by the end of your workweek. Fuel, insurance, dispatch, tolls, parking, repairs, permits, maintenance, and other expenses — everything comes together in one clear picture. Trucker Core doesn’t just show how much money you have left. More importantly, it shows you WHY. EVERY LOAD — UNDER CONTROL Upload your Rate Confirmation and Trucker Core extracts the load details, calculates the route, loaded miles, deadhead, and rate per mile, and helps you understand how profitable that load really is for your business. Running a partial load? Trucker Core accounts for the additional revenue without counting the same miles twice. MILES ARE TRACKED AUTOMATICALLY Start your shift and drive. Trucker Core records your route, identifies each state, and automatically tracks mileage by jurisdiction. That data is used for IFTA, reports, and mileage-tax calculations. Trucker Core also supports New York HUT, Kentucky KYU, New Mexico WDT, Oregon WMT, and Connecticut HUF. FUEL, EXPENSES & DOCUMENTS Take a photo of your fuel receipt and Trucker Core extracts the fueling information. Keep your CDL, Medical Card, Registration, Insurance, Annual Inspection, permits, and other important documents in one place — and get reminders before they expire. REPORTS — WHEN YOU NEED THEM Generate reports for income, expenses, loads, fuel, and other business metrics for any selected period. At the end of the quarter, generate a detailed IFTA report with a state-by-state breakdown and export your reports as PDF or CSV. YOUR ENTIRE BUSINESS IN ONE TRUCKER CORE Loads, revenue, expenses, profit, miles, fuel, IFTA, mileage taxes, documents, and reports work together as one connected system — not a collection of separate calculators. Trucker Core works with you every day — tracking, calculating, analyzing, and helping you make smarter decisions. And the app keeps evolving, with new tools built around the real everyday needs of owner-operators. Know what you earned. Know where your money went. Understand why. And make decisions today — not when it’s already too late. Trucker Core — built by a trucker, for truckers. Because no one understands this job better than those who live life on the road.
