Freight Risk Intelligence · Accessorial Coverage

Accessorial risk
has a price.
Now it has a ceiling.

Precursory is the first platform to turn TONU, detention, and per-diem volatility into a fixed, transferable cost — built for shippers who are done budgeting on guesses.

Day one: a cost ceiling underwritten on your actual lane history. Day 100: a model no competitor can replicate, because it was trained on yours.

How a Fee Is Born

Every fee was visible before it happened. The signal existed. Nobody connected it to the carrier in time.

The problem isn't that TONU happens. It's that you don't know it's coming until the truck is already rolling — and by then, the fee is already owed. That's not a visibility problem. It's a timing problem. And timing is fixable.

TONU

The truck drove there for nothing.

Signal existed ERP flagged delay 3 days prior No action taken Window missed Tender issued Fee charged $250–500 TONU
Detention

The clock started the moment they arrived.

Signal existed Dock showed 3hr congestion Carrier not informed Window missed Driver dispatched on time Fee charged $75–150/hr detention
Trailer & Equipment

It sat in your yard the entire time.

Signal existed TMS: trailer idle 6 days No alert triggered Window missed No reposition actioned Fee charged $50–100/day per-diem
Fuel Surcharge

You've been billed on 6 MPG for years.
Your trucks run at 7.2.

Signal existed OEM: 7.2 MPG actual Not connected to billing Not connected Billed on 6 MPG assumption Overpayment $0.18/mi every load
The Instrument

You've been absorbing
a cost that was never yours.

We take on the financial exposure you've been absorbing and replace it with a fixed cost per load — underwritten on your actual lane history, not industry averages.

Your cost becomes predictable. Your exposure becomes capped. As our prevention engine improves, your rate follows it down.

Day one

A cost ceiling underwritten on your real lane and carrier history. Not an industry average. Not a guess.

Day 100

A risk model trained on your specific lanes, carriers, and facilities. Every load sharpens it. No competitor starting today can buy that history.

The coverage agreement

The agreement sets a monthly ceiling on your accessorial exposure. If losses exceed that ceiling, we pay the difference — dollar for dollar, documented per load. Your rate is set in advance. Your downside is capped.

FM Global transformed property insurance by preventing losses before they happened — and pricing the residual against actual exposure.

How We Power

The first risk platform designed to think, not just track.

Every other tool in your stack records what happened. Precursory predicts what will — and prices it before it does. AI-native from the ground up, not a dashboard with a model bolted on.

How We Grow

The network that prices itself down over time.

As the network grows, loss ratios drop. As loss ratios drop, coverage costs fall. Shippers pay less. Carriers earn more predictable lanes. The platform gets sharper for everyone — not just the biggest players.

Carrier X avoids a TONU on your lane. That outcome trains the model — so the next time that pattern appears, the intervention fires faster.
Shipper Y adds a facility. Their dock data improves detention prediction for every carrier running that corridor.
The model sharpens. Your rate reflects it — as our loss-ratio improves, your coverage cost lowers.
A competitor starting today would need years of this history to underwrite at the same precision. You already have it.
How We Engage

We work inside your operation, not around it.

Precursory doesn't ask you to change how you operate. It sits alongside your existing tools, learns your lanes, and starts reducing accessorial exposure from day one. Integration in days, not quarters.

We shadow your operations before we sign anything. You see the risk map before you commit to the coverage agreement.

The Team

Built by operators.
Wired into the systems we connect.

We've dispatched trucks, managed lanes, and lived inside the systems we're now connecting. We treat every design partner's operations as seriously as our own — and we don't invoice for outcomes we can't measure.

We rely on advisors with direct operator relationships across the carrier and shipper ecosystem — the specific relationships that open doors.
