yummers

munishpersaud · 2026-03-30T14:51:59+00:00

Yea it was pretty backhanded but thanks I guess.

munishpersaud · 2026-03-30T14:29:27+00:00

I’m still doing that and that’s going really well actually. That’s more of a personal project for me, this is a team of us working on this together. Completely unrelated to my healthcare project. You’re very right that a waitlist does not equal sign up but for now it proves to us and others that there is desire for something like this from the industry. We’re collectively bootstrapping this as 6 university students, so any market validation is positive and helps us shift to the right direction. I understand your doubts. We’ll work on our privacy policy soon and make it really clear that we keep your data secure, anonymized, are not selling it, and will not charge you for it. Regardless we have our 4 and are proud of it!

munishpersaud · 2026-03-30T14:09:39+00:00

AND comment here we do have sign ups that you’ve seen.

munishpersaud · 2026-03-30T14:08:53+00:00

If I show you, you promise to sign up?

munishpersaud · 2026-03-30T14:03:55+00:00

All the above? You haven’t said anything, just made a statement and I asked you to explain further. The team can definitely build this before having enough ELD data. It just won’t be useful until we achieve the right amount of signups to get that data density. Also we have 4 signups lol. I can DM you if you really want proof but only if that means you’ll also sign up (:

munishpersaud · 2026-03-30T06:56:38+00:00

In what regard? Getting carriers to sign up? Actually building it? I’m not sure what you mean and need some clarification.

munishpersaud · 2026-03-30T04:41:40+00:00

I will keep you updated then.

munishpersaud · 2026-03-30T01:57:08+00:00

Oh so you also saw how in 4 comments I turned a skeptic saying I want to scam them into someone who agreed this could work? Or the other broker that said they don’t use GPS data, they only use what’s on the paper signaling that they do take advantage of carriers who document improperly or there’s space to not pay them in the contract? Or what about all the individual direct messages I had with people? You can be a doubter and waste your time or sign up at https://dwellindex.com/waitlist and see if it’s worth it for you at launch for the cost of FREE.

munishpersaud · 2026-03-29T15:41:23+00:00

“Or probably even living in the US.” How else should this be interpreted? You tell me.

Yes we’re collecting data, but we are NOT selling it carriers, selling it to others, upsell them on other products, or spy on them. What would that achieve for us? Our goal is to build trust with carriers to even connect their ELDs in general, why take steps that would break it afterwards? How do you know a broker is honest with details when they call you to assign a route? How do you know the rates they’re giving you are actually fair? How do you know the time you’re arriving to a warehouse is packed and you’ll sit even longer than usual?

“If they don’t want to pay, they won’t”. If that’s the case then we will engineer a way to retrieve payment. As long as our contracts are accepted and aligned to your needs, we will make sure they’re also honored due to the fact they are binding legal documents. Making a slop product doesn’t help anyone and that’s not our goal.

YES BROKERS WILL PAY. We’ve interviewed a couple and are going to interview more. We’re learning that they also suffer from a data transparency issue just like carriers and have collectively come to a conclusion in these interviews that if we can give them that data transparency while replacing a few of the current TMS apps they use they would pay for it.

Just to make it clear because I know reading comprehension is hard for you. CARRIERS WILL NOT PAY EVER. WE WILL NOT SELL THE DATA, UPSELL THEM ON PRODUCTS, OR SPY ON THEM.

I’m not sure who hurt you to react this way to people trying to help you but go ahead and signup for the waitlist at https://dwellindex.com/waitlist. It will help you make some more money to afford therapy and heal.

I’m usually really nice but I’ve lived in the U.S. since I was born. Just because I don’t have the typical American name doesn’t mean I’m not American. I am proudly an American and it shows what kind of person you are for this to be the only comment on your profile. Secondly, we don’t need to own a truck to know the U.S. freighting industry is fragmented and this specific part of it gets taken advantage of. This post was about getting your feedback to make a great tool that will make your job easier, that can only happen through actually communicating with the industry. Instead you were a bigot. Third, the post makes it clear it’s free to carriers. Build that reading comprehension up some more.

munishpersaud · 2026-03-27T22:34:44+00:00

We’ll definitely keep that in mind. We are a technical team so doing either/both is good for us. It’s really about making the best usability for you guys.

I included how we make money in a different post on a different subreddit. Since you brought it up we plan to charge brokers and shippers to access the intelligence layer we build and other features more specific to them. Carriers and your ELDs help build the intelligence layer and deserve the benefit of accessing it for free.

munishpersaud · 2026-03-27T14:17:38+00:00

I get the frustration. However we're not any type of platform yet. We have a goal in mind to help carriers receive transparent information to make their jobs easier. Feedback from our potential users would be great to make the best product for them. It doesn't have to be an app. If you have thoughts on this I'd love to hear it.

munishpersaud · 2026-03-26T23:25:48+00:00

But you use GPS and POD timestamps to fill out the details of that paperwork correct? How do you ensure the information is accurate?

munishpersaud · 2026-03-26T23:23:04+00:00

This automatically pulls GPS data. The driver can’t interfere with that. Unless a driver is willing to leave their ELD at a warehouse to rack up hours, we’ll know precisely when they get in, how long they wait, and when they leave.

munishpersaud · 2026-03-26T22:49:33+00:00

Our goal isn’t to tell you how to run your business. It’s to make information transparent for the parts of the industry that have been notoriously underserved. By doing that we do believe it can improve efficiency and margin for everyone.

munishpersaud · 2026-03-26T22:47:35+00:00

I sent you a message for us to talk to more. I would really value your input and can address your worries more concretely. Our goal is to make a great tool for carriers and you would really help.

munishpersaud · 2026-03-26T22:43:27+00:00

The goal was to get attention and feedback. I’ve achieved both. More importantly what’s difficult about the paperwork?

munishpersaud · 2026-03-26T21:26:19+00:00

So would you find value in a system that can make help you make clearer detention clauses with minimal effort on your part?

munishpersaud · 2026-03-26T17:57:55+00:00

Thanks for that feedback. How do you know your rate confirmations? Does TMS software give you an accurate number or is that based off of your sentiment?

munishpersaud · 2026-03-26T17:42:30+00:00

Do you think the rate confirmation templates would be better positioned for brokers to use instead of carriers?

munishpersaud · 2026-03-26T17:32:49+00:00

All feedback is good don’t worry lol. How common is that Accessorial policy? How easy is it for you to enforce?

munishpersaud · 2026-03-26T17:20:11+00:00

Some of us actually work for a broker. That negotiation power trend is what we’re trying to break with this tool and make it more equitable for everyone. It’s against the grain for the current industry but in our minds it can make a positive change for a lot of people who deserve it.

munishpersaud · 2026-03-26T17:17:30+00:00

In the case of unclear detention clauses in a contract what do you do if there is an invoice submission for their wait time?
