Methodology and sourcing behind the figures shown above.

Truckload and LTL transportation

Estimate based on aggregated search results: US truckload market ~USD 800 billion (Red Stag) plus US LTL market ~USD 118.68 billion (Mordor Intelligence 2026 figure) → combined ~USD 918.7 billion. Growth potential (CAGR ~2.3%) is a weighted blend: Mordor’s LTL forecast 4.08% CAGR (2026–2031) and an assumed low-single-digit truckload growth (~2%) reflecting mature market dynamics and rate-driven expansion; weighted by market size to produce a combined CAGR ≈2.3%. IBISWorld and other sources report alternative LTL figures (USD 96.9B–USD 114B) and similar low-to-mid single-digit growth, supporting the mid-to-low single-digit combined outlook.

Intermodal and rail freight

Estimated North American intermodal + related rail freight market (~$85B) derived from: global rail freight market estimates (Mordor: ~$340.5B 2026; FactMR: ~$370B 2025) scaled to North America using intermodal regional shares and intermodal market sizing (Persistence: global intermodal $52.4B in 2025; North America ~36%). Oliver Wyman analysis of US addressable intermodal volumes and a cited $1.7B medium‑haul revenue opportunity indicate additional upside within North America. Taken together, this implies a North American addressable market on the order of multiple tens of billions (intermodal + drayage/last‑mile services and intermodal share of rail freight). Growth potential (CAGR ~6.5%) blends higher intermodal forecasts (Persistence 7.2% intermodal CAGR) and broader rail freight growth (Mordor/FactMR ~4.5% CAGR), reflecting faster expansion of intermodal and drayage segments versus overall rail freight.

Expedited air cargo

Estimated expedited (time‑critical/express/charter) air cargo market by applying reported express/expedited share (~38%) to published global air cargo/air freight market values (reports range ~USD 160–185B in mid‑2020s). Growth potential (CAGR ~5.5%) is based on reported air freight CAGRs (4.3–5.85%) with express/expedited services typically growing at or modestly above the overall market due to e‑commerce and time‑sensitive demand.

Freight marketplace and carrier network

Estimates derived from recent industry reports for digital freight matching / digital freight brokerage (comparable to freight marketplaces and carrier networks). Reported 2024–2025 market values range from about USD 3.8–4.9 billion and multi-year forecasts vary (CAGRs reported from ~5.8% to ~20.2%). I selected a mid-point current market size (~USD 4.0B) and a conservative-to-ambitious growth potential (≈15% CAGR) to reflect the consensus range across sources and the category’s strong network effects and technology adoption tailwinds.

Supply chain orchestration and fulfillment connectivity

Primary estimate uses Mordor Intelligence’s supply chain control tower market as a close proxy for supply chain orchestration and fulfillment connectivity (USD 11.57B in 2026; 17.36% CAGR through 2031). Fortune Business Insights’ broader supply chain management market (USD 29.34B in 2025; ~10.4% CAGR) was used to contextualize the larger market envelope and validate that orchestration is a high-growth subset.
