Get started in 5 steps

  1. Install and pin the extension. Add it from the Chrome Web Store, then click the puzzle icon in Chrome’s toolbar and pin LoadTide so it is always one click away.
  2. Open LoadTide settings (click the LoadTide icon) and paste your Company link — your company admin gives you this.
  3. Sylectus (optional): enter your Sylectus details if you use Sylectus.
  4. Connect Gmail to send emails to brokers in one click. You may see “Google hasn’t verified this app” — this is expected while Google finishes its review. Click Advanced → Go to LoadTide and allow send email. LoadTide cannot read your inbox.
  5. Add your email templates and signature (26′ and 53′ templates).

Then open DAT One → Search Loads (or the Sylectus load board). LoadTide adds its information automatically. You still use your own DAT, Sylectus and RTS access.

What you will see

  • DH-D badge on every load: Hot / OK / Slow — how easy it is to reload out of the destination state.
  • Reload and Fuel estimate boxes when you open a load.
  • MC# lookup — RTS record (green) and DAT credit score / days-to-pay (blue).
  • Email in one click — ✉ templates, ⚡ Send with Undo, and a ! warning when the email domain doesn’t match the broker.
  • Market card in the left menu — national $/mile, weekly trend and how strong your pickup state is.
