REPOWR Launches Hitch

Chattanooga, TN - January 20, 2026 - REPOWR, the collaborative trailer-sharing marketplace modernizing access to freight equipment, today announced the launch of Hitch, a new AI-powered trailer assistant designed to help carriers find and reserve the right trailer in seconds.

Hitch replaces phone calls, manual searches, and trial-and-error bookings with instant, intelligent answers. Using real-time availability, authority requirements, and carrier history, Hitch proactively matches users to trailers they are qualified to reserve, dramatically reducing failed bookings and time spent searching.

Unlike traditional chatbots or static AI tools, Hitch is an interactive decision engine built specifically for trailer access. It learns from carrier behavior, past reservations, and usage patterns to anticipate what a user needs and immediately surface viable options.

“Trailer access has historically been one of the most manual and frustrating parts of freight,” said Chris Hines, CEO at REPOWR. “Hitch fundamentally changes that experience. It removes guesswork, shortens the path to a reservation, and makes the entire network smarter with every interaction.”

Since launch, REPOWR has seen a 3X increase in reservations among users who engage with Hitch, validating the demand for faster, more intuitive equipment discovery. By guiding carriers to trailers they can actually reserve, based on real availability and compliance, Hitch helps users move more quickly while protecting suppliers and reducing operational friction.

“Hitch is built to think the way experienced dispatchers do, but faster,” said Matt Harb, VP of Product and Engineering at REPOWR. “It understands what a carrier is likely looking for, filters out options that won’t work, and delivers answers immediately. The result is fewer dead ends, faster decisions, and a more efficient trailer network for everyone.”

Hitch is the latest step in REPOWR’s broader vision to create a connected, intelligent trailer ecosystem, where access is instant, utilization is maximized, and every trailer has a job to do.
