Optimal Dynamics

The Decision Company trusted by transportation leaders.

Logistics is a game of million-dollar decisions made in seconds. Yet, most of the industry still relies on legacy systems and manual intuition. Optimal Dynamics provides the "Decision Layer" that bridges the gap between human expertise and autonomous scale. Optimal Dynamics empowers transportation companies to better plan, optimize and automate strategic, tactical and real-time operational decisions. Based on 40 years of extensive research & development at Princeton University in conjunction with decades of real-world application, Optimal Dynamics reimagines how private fleets, dedicated capacity and for-hire carriers think about planning and operating their truckload assets, drivers and brokerage arms where applicable. Our platform enables users to ask hyper-detailed strategic "what if" questions via a simulation-based environment. We then leverage those outputs to maximize network profitability, increase asset revenue and utilization, reduce unnecessary cost and mitigate risk, all
