How it works

01

Upload the rate con.

Snap a photo or drop the PDF. HullAndLine reads it — broker, MC number, detention terms, the hourly rate you agreed to.

02

We compute and draft.

It works out exactly what you're owed from your dock-in and dock-out times, checks the broker against FMCSA, and drafts a demand letter that cites the contract and the regulation.

03

You send it.

Review the letter, then send it to the broker under your own name — copy it, download it, or open it pre-addressed in your mail. We prepare the case; you stay in control of every send.

HullAndLine prepares your demand letter and hands it to you to send. It's document automation, not legal advice — you review and send every claim, and you're responsible for your own.
