Who Is SlipSeat 

People who hate driver files as much as you 

We started as a geospatial marketplace to solve port truck driver shortages. The freight market had other plans.

While waiting for volumes to recover, we built an AI backend to automate our own Driver Operations. Because driver files suck for everyone, that backend became Maude. Then Diane. Then something we think is going to change how small carriers compete.

SlipSeat is a tech startup based in Tampa, Florida. We build practical AI tools for the trucking industry.  Our tools save money and frustration for carriers, while reducing their compliance risk.   But more importantly, our tools save time and help even the smallest operations run like they have a full back-office team.

Our Products

Maude is an AI back-office operating system for motor carrier driver operations. She automates the DOT hiring process from job ad to DQF paperwork, handles workflows, and keeps everything organized so your team can focus on moving freight instead of chasing documents.

  • Reduces hiring workload by up to 75%
  • DOT-compliant at every step
  • Ideal for small and mid-sized fleets, especially those still running on paper
  • Hire a driver for as little as $50

Diane – Free AI Jobs Assistant for Drivers

Diane is a free, carrier-agnostic AI Agent built specifically for commercial truck drivers. She learns your background and preferences through an integrated DOT application, matches you with carriers that actually fit your life, and advocates for you throughout the process.

  • Matches drivers to carriers based on experience, location, and preferences
  • Generates a professional interview packet and sends it to carriers on your behalf
  • Acts as a research assistant, job coach, and advocate – all in one
  • Always free for drivers

Geospatial Marketplace – Coming Soon

Our original product is coming back. A geospatial marketplace that solves truck driver shortages at ports by connecting carriers with just-in-time drivers and owner-operators who can be onsite within hours. It converts density into capacity – and can double a carrier’s per-truck profit by enabling bottom-up staffing.

What Drives Us

We want to make it as easy as possible for drivers to maximize their earning potential – and for carriers to find and keep great drivers without drowning in paperwork.

The trucking industry moves everything. The people who keep it running deserve better tools.

That’s why we build useful AI tools.  Not flashy. Not complicated. Not expensive. Just AI that works. For you.

Transparent Pricing. No Tricks.

No setup fees. No minimums or commits unless you want a discount. If you elect a 3-yr plan, we’ll cut your price in half as a thank you.

  • Hire a driver for as little as $50
