The short version

Each has a real cost: Locate2u pricing quoted in AUD, not USD, requiring currency conversion for US customers; Turvo turvo is owned by Lineage, a large cold storage and logistics operator, so competing 3PLs are placing operational and rate data with a platform under a competitor group; the separation is contractual, not structural.

Turvo

Turvo is owned by Lineage, a large cold storage and logistics operator, so competing 3PLs are placing operational and rate data with a platform under a competitor group; the separation is contractual, not structural.
No pricing is published and third-party figures vary by an order of magnitude, from a few hundred to several thousand dollars a month, which makes early budgeting guesswork.
The collaboration model only pays off if counterparties actually log in; brokers whose shippers and carriers stay on email get the cost of the platform without the headcount benefit.
Accounting and settlement are functional but thinner than dedicated brokerage back-office systems, so many customers still run a separate finance package and reconcile between them.
Coverage is North American truckload and less-than-truckload first; international, ocean and customs workflows are weak, so it does not suit a forwarder-led business.
