HOUSTON, Aug. 14, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Freight Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ:FRGT) ("Fr8Tech" or the "Company"), a technology-centric logistics company offering a diversified portfolio of AI software solutions designed to address key inefficiencies in the supply chain, today announced the integration of Fleet Rocket Transportation Management System (TMS) ("Fleet Rocket") with Highway, the leading carrier identity, compliance, and fraud prevention platform widely used across the North American freight industry.

The integration enables transportation brokers, shippers, and logistics providers using Fleet Rocket to automate carrier onboarding and compliance verification workflows. Carriers can complete qualification requirements directly through Highway based on the rules and standards set by Fleet Rocket customers. Once a carrier completes all the required compliance criteria, the carrier profile is automatically created within Fleet Rocket.

In addition to onboarding automation, the integration continuously synchronizes carrier information between the two platforms. Updates to insurance certificates, operating authority status, contact information, and other compliance-related data maintained in Highway are automatically reflected within Fleet Rocket, helping ensure that carrier records remain current and accurate.

"Carrier compliance and onboarding are critical functions within transportation management, yet they often require significant manual effort and ongoing maintenance," said Javier Selgas, Chief Executive Officer of Fr8Tech. "By integrating Highway directly into Fleet Rocket, we are helping customers eliminate time-consuming administrative tasks, improve data accuracy, accelerate carrier qualifications, and improve their compliance standards."

The integration is designed to support transportation organizations seeking to improve operational efficiency while reducing risks associated with outdated carrier information and manual onboarding procedures. By automating these workflows, Fleet Rocket enables logistics teams to focus more of their time on freight execution and customer service.

As freight networks continue to expand and regulatory requirements evolve, maintaining accurate carrier compliance records has become increasingly important for transportation providers. The Highway integration provides Fleet Rocket users with a scalable solution for managing carrier qualification and compliance information within a unified transportation management environment.
