A walk round the network in plain words: what it moves, what your account opens on day one, and what a paid level actually changes. Nothing here creates a job, notifies a driver or takes a payment.
HAF KNECT is the network where a job is posted once and the drivers who are cleared to do it can see it. This is the Demo Centre: it walks the product from three seats — the person posting the work, the driver doing it, and somebody getting cleared to drive — and ends with what each account level allows. Every screen named on this page is read out of the live product each time the page is built. It is not the live network, and nothing on it is real work.
Where it is collected, where it goes, what it is and when it has to be there. One screen. Any HAF account can post from the day it is opened.
It goes to the drivers who are cleared and near enough to do it. A job that cannot be placed comes off the board rather than sitting there going stale.
Collection and delivery are each proved by the driver, and the job carries one reference from the moment it is posted to the moment it is paid.
This is the shape of a posted job: both ends, the load, the vehicle and the reference that follows it all the way through.
Every screen below is open to any HAF account from the day it is opened, free one included. Nothing here waits on documents, a payment or a level. Walk down it in order and you have shown the whole posting side of the product.
A driver gets two things. Inside KNECT they get the work: the board, the offers, the job they are on and what they have earned. PLNA is the app they actually run the day from. Both open only once Clever has released them by name.
These are the screens along the bottom of PLNA, in the order they appear on a driver's phone.
Clever is the check, not the shop. Nobody pays it and nobody joins through it: a person opens their HAF account first, then Clever decides whether they are let near other people's work. These are its four stages, in order.
Read off the live join page, so what you promise on camera is what the person then meets.
Joining HAF and being cleared to drive for HAF are separate things. Keeping them separate is what makes the network worth being in.
Created in a couple of minutes and open as soon as you confirm your email address. Free to hold.
Opens only when Clever has checked your documents and released you by name. That is the whole point of it.
What a level changes is how much you can do with it, and what a job costs you — not which screens you get. Nothing is hidden behind a paywall.

A price is not a haggle and it is not a guess. Four things set it: the vehicle, how fast the job has to happen, how far it goes, and how hard it is to load. Everything else on this page is a consequence of those four.
Each size has a rate and a smallest charge, so a short job in a big van is never priced as if it were a small one.

The service level the job is posted at. Most work sits on the first three; only genuinely time-critical work carries a premium.
| Service | Premium |
|---|---|
| Scheduled / Flexible / Co-load | no premium |
| Same-Day | no premium |
| Timed Delivery | no premium |
| Urgent / Time-Critical | +10% |
Named, capped and on the quote before anyone agrees to anything. No surprise on the invoice.
Everything above is what the customer is quoted. This is what is left with HAF once the driver is paid, on the job picked above. Change the job and these move with it.

A paid account costs the customer less and costs the driver nothing. The driver's pay is the same figure in all three columns above, so the whole of the difference comes out of what HAF keeps. That is what an account level is actually buying, and the build checks it on every one of the 288 example jobs rather than taking it on trust.
To be confirmed
A slice of what HAF keeps is earmarked to flow back out into the network. The destinations are set. The size of the slice and the split between them are not settled yet, so no figure for them appears on this page, and none should be quoted on a call until they are.
Your name, email, mobile and date of birth, your company if you have one, and a PIN. No payment and no documents to find.
One click in the email we send. That is what opens the account and lets you post work.
Only if you intend to take jobs. Clever checks them and releases you, and the driving side opens.
