Alvys Welcomes LoadOps Customers as Optym Retains LoadAi

Alvys to take over LoadOps customer base as Optym focuses on LoadAi

Alvys is acquiring the customer base of LoadOps, Optym’s transportation management system, in a strategic partnership that will move those carriers and brokers onto the Alvys platform. The financial terms were not disclosed.

The deal makes Alvys the new transportation management system provider for companies that currently use LoadOps. Optym, meanwhile, will retain LoadAi, its load-planning and driver-assignment platform, and concentrate its resources on that business.

Customer migrations are already underway. Alvys and Optym said accounts are being moved individually, with both companies working with customers on system setup and the transition process.

For carriers and brokers, the change involves more than a software name. LoadOps customers will be shifting to a platform that combines dispatch, accounting, compliance and driver management in one system. Alvys also serves both asset-based carriers and brokers, allowing companies with multiple transportation operations to use a single platform.

“We built Optym to solve the hardest optimization problems in transportation. This partnership lets us put everything into that mission,” Ravi Ahuja, Optym’s founder and CEO, said in a statement.

Optym evaluated several transportation management systems before selecting Alvys, according to Alvys. The companies said the decision was based on which provider could best support the existing LoadOps customer base as those businesses grew.

Alvys described platform consolidation as a central benefit of the transition. Its system is designed to bring dispatch, accounting, compliance and driver management together under one login and one source of operational information.

That consolidation can be important for professional drivers as well as back-office staff. Dispatch instructions, compliance records, settlement information and driver-related management functions are often handled through separate systems when a company uses multiple software providers. Moving those functions to one platform is intended to reduce the need to switch among systems during daily operations.

“Our LoadOps customers needed a TMS partner built for the long haul. Alvys is that partner,” Ahuja said. He added that Optym is working with Alvys and its customers to support a smooth transition.

The companies said some early operations migrated within days of an initial customer call. They did not provide a total number of LoadOps customers or a target completion date for the migrations. They also said a shared offering for the combined customer base will be announced later.

Optym will continue developing LoadAi, which focuses on load planning and driver assignments. The platform uses operations research to help asset-based carriers make freight-planning decisions, and it is used by carriers across North America. The distinction means that Optym is stepping away from the broader TMS role for LoadOps customers while maintaining its focus on optimization tools.

“Optym has spent more than 25 years applying operations research to freight planning decisions,” the company said. LoadAi remains the center of that work as Optym shifts its resources toward the platform.

Alvys was founded in 2020 and said its system moves approximately $9 billion in freight annually. The company also said about 60,000 carrier drivers are on its platform. Alvys has raised $77 million in total funding, including a $40 million Series B led by RTP Global in September 2025.

The company has continued adding capabilities to its transportation management system. On Aug. 11, Alvys introduced Alvys Foundry, a tool that allows carriers and brokers to build software agents for tasks such as check calls, invoice and settlement preparation, and track-and-trace exceptions. Users can work from Alvys templates or create agents for specific needs.

The partnership gives LoadOps customers a path to continue using a transportation management system while Optym concentrates on LoadAi’s planning and assignment functions. For drivers and carriers, the immediate impact will depend on how each company configures the Alvys platform during migration, including the handling of dispatch, compliance, settlement and driver-management workflows.

Alvys and Optym said there are additional opportunities for the companies to work together, but they did not provide details. The two companies said further information about a combined offering will be released later.
