Shangri-La · Powered by LHJFind your perfect load. Drive smarter miles.
Shangri-La scores the whole load — so a driver can see, before the wheels turn, whether a load truly pays for their operation.
“LHJ Freight Solutions/Shangri-La’s mission is to give owner-operators and small carriers the clarity to choose freight with confidence. We score the whole load — so drivers can find the perfect load for their operation and drive smarter, more profitable miles.”
“Our vision is a trucking industry where finding the perfect load is no longer a matter of luck or guesswork. Every independent driver has a clear road to freight that fits their equipment, their business, and the life they’re building.”
The whole load, scored — not just the rate
Other tools stop at revenue. Shangri-La weighs everything that decides whether a load makes money, and shows you the score and the why behind it.
Profit & revenue
True revenue and profit — per mile and per day — after your real costs, not the headline number on the board.
Deadhead
The empty miles to the pickup are part of the load’s real price. Shangri-La counts them every time.
Weather
The worst conditions along your route during transit — storms, ice, and wind change what a load really costs.
Elevation & terrain
Total feet climbed along the route. Mountain miles burn fuel and time that a flat-rate number never shows.
Fuel
Fuel cost per mile, priced by the regions you’ll actually drive through — not one national average.
Tolls
Route-estimated tolls folded into the score, so a toll-heavy lane can’t quietly eat the margin.
Reload likelihood
A great load into a dead market is a trap. Shangri-La weighs your chances of reloading where you land.
Your personal bar
Scores are calibrated to your own history and your own cost per mile — your standard, not somebody else’s.
Your cost per mile. Your history. Your bar.
Know your cost per mile
Shangri-La helps you calculate what it truly costs to roll one mile in your truck. Every score is measured against that number — the line between a paying load and a losing one.
Build your history
Import your past loads from your settlement sheets and Shangri-La builds your personal track record — so “good” means better than your own average, and the bar rises as you improve.
Score before you commit
Snap a photo of a load posting or enter it by hand, and get one clear score with the reasons behind it — built for the cab, with big taps and plain language.
See it for yourself
The clickable prototype is live. Walk the setup, enter a load, and watch the whole-load score do what a single rate never could.
Start with one score. Grow to a full operation.
Shangri-La is planned in tiers, from a free first score to a full dispatcher tier — features roll out in stages as the product grows.
