Autosled Launches SecurePass™ Digital Gate Pass System for Vehicle Shipment Security

ROCKVILLE, MD – September 3, 2025– Autosled, ranked No. 12 and No. 513 on the 2024 and 2025 Inc. 5000 list of fastest-growing private companies and No. 9 on the 2024 Deloitte Fast 500, and a leading provider of digital technology solutions for automotive vehicle transport logistics, announced today launch of SecurePass digital gate pass system for vehicle shipments. The patent-pending solution was created to combat increasing industry fraud attempts while simultaneously ensuring smoother vehicle pickups and deliveries. 

“SecurePass’s market-leading technology provides retail automotive dealers and dealership employees with unparalleled peace of mind during their vehicle shipments,” noted David Sperau, Co-Founder and Chief Revenue Officer for Autosled. “Experiencing the level of fraud prevention and security that SecurePass provides is truly a game-changer for Autosled’s current, and future, customers.” 

Built to safeguard vehicle shipments, SecurePass supports real-time authentication, enables audit tracking, and improves the overall accountability and integrity of the entire process. Both the shipment and driver details are verified, without which the vehicle cannot be released for pickup. SecurePass generates a unique, watermark-protected document featuring an embedded QR code that’s unique to each shipment. Only by using the QR code can access be gained to Autosled’s real-time, secure validation portal. SecurePass not only reduces the risk of unauthorized vehicle access, but accelerates the verification process as well. 

“With SecurePass, we’ve built technology that fundamentally raises the bar for shipment security,” said Frank Soehnge, Vice President of Technology at Autosled. “Every QR code, every verification step, every passcode is designed to close the gaps that bad actors exploit. SecurePass not only protects vehicles but also creates a more reliable and trustworthy process for everyone in the automotive transport ecosystem.”

SecurePass is available only at Autosled. Customers can choose to add this extra layer of security to any of their vehicle shipments at no extra cost. Start shipping vehicles with Autosled to get started with SecurePass.
