Descartes Acquires Tai
Expands Transportation Management Capabilities and Global Logistics Network with
AI-Enabled Freight Brokerage Platform
WATERLOO, Ontario, and ATLANTA, Georgia, Aug 24, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE)
— The Descartes Systems Group (Nasdaq: DSGX) (TSX: DSG), the global leader in uniting logistics-intensive businesses in commerce, today announced the acquisition of Tai, a leading provider of advanced transportation management solutions for freight
brokers.
Tai provides an AI-powered transportation management platform that serves as the system of action for freight brokers, orchestrating the entire shipment lifecycle
across truckload (TL), less-than-truckload (LTL), drayage, and cross-border operations. By unifying quoting, carrier sourcing, load execution, billing, and customer engagement in a single workflow, Tai helps brokers automate operations and make
better decisions faster.
“Freight brokers play a critical role in connecting shippers and carriers to efficiently execute transportation moves across North America. The acquisition
expands our transportation management capabilities for freight brokers and adds valuable transaction, carrier and shipment execution data to the Descartes Global Logistics NetworkTM,” said Andrew Wimer, Associate General Manager -
Transportation Management at Descartes. “We’re also pleased to welcome Tai’s team of proven domain experts to help accelerate our pace of innovation while best serving our joint customers.”
“Transportation networks are becoming increasingly dynamic and complex. At the same time, AI is changing how our customers manage freight, capacity and
execution,” said Edward J. Ryan, CEO of Descartes. “Tai complements our strengths in carrier onboarding, compliance, fraud prevention, and real-time
visibility. By combining our solutions, we see a
significant opportunity to help freight brokers navigate change, streamline freight execution, improve operating margins, strengthen customer and carrier relationships, and support digital transformation.”
Tai is headquartered in California. Descartes acquired Tai Software for approximately US $100 million, satisfied from cash on hand.
