# HaulProfit - Trucking Profitability Platform
> Cross-border trucking profit calculator for US, Mexico, and Canada

## What is HaulProfit?

HaulProfit is a SaaS platform that helps truckers instantly determine if a load is profitable before accepting it. Using a simple "traffic light" system (green/yellow/red), drivers see at-a-glance whether a load will make money, break even, or lose money based on their actual operating costs.

## How the Traffic Light System Works

2. **YELLOW** = Marginal load. Covers variable costs but may not cover fixed costs.
3. **RED** = Unprofitable load. Will lose money on this haul.

## Frequently Asked Questions

### How does HaulProfit calculate if a load is profitable?
HaulProfit compares the load's rate per mile against your true cost per mile, which includes fuel, truck payment, insurance, maintenance, permits, and driver pay. If the rate exceeds your costs plus profit margin, you get green. If it covers variable costs but not fixed, you get yellow. If it loses money, you get red.

### What is break-even RPM?
Break-even RPM (Rate Per Mile) is the minimum rate you need to cover all your operating costs. It's calculated from your true cost per mile including fuel, payments, insurance, maintenance, and other expenses. Any load paying below this rate loses you money.

### Does HaulProfit work on load boards?
Yes. Our desktop app injects profitability badges directly into DAT, Truckstop, and 51+ other major load boards. You see green/yellow/red indicators next to each load without leaving the board.

### How do factoring companies use HaulProfit?
Factoring companies provide HaulProfit free to their trucking clients. This helps clients make profitable decisions, survive their first year, and become long-term customers. Factors can white-label the platform with their branding and monitor client health through the intelligence dashboard.

### What languages does the voice command feature support?
Voice commands work in English, Spanish, French, Arabic, Punjabi, and Haitian Creole. Just speak your load details and the calculator automatically processes them in your language.
