Use cases

Automate every workflow between RFQ and POD

quoting

Shared inbox triage

Monitor shared inboxes and match every message and attachment to the right customer, quote, or load. Classify each request and send it to the right workflow.

RFP management

Turn requests from email, portals, and spreadsheets into pricing-ready records. Flag missing details, build responses, and manage revisions through acceptance.

Quoting and rating

Pull contract rates, lane history, market data, and carrier quotes into every pricing decision. Flag quotes that fall outside margin or customer rules.

Load entry

Extract order and BOL details from any format, check them against customer rules, and create complete loads directly in the TMS.
coverage

Carrier onboarding and compliance

Collect setup documents and validate authority, insurance, tax, payment details, and fraud indicators. Keep compliance checks current before every booking.

Carrier sourcing

Post loads and match them to carriers based on lane history, equipment, availability, and preferences. Prioritize proven carriers before going to the open market.

Carrier selection and negotiation

Compare rate, service history, authority, insurance, and fraud risk. Negotiate within approved limits and route only true exceptions to a broker.

Tendering

Send tenders, capture responses, and let qualified carriers accept loads across email, voice, and digital booking channels. Escalate declined or unconfirmed freight.

Dispatch handoff

Validate final terms, process the rate confirmation, and send the carrier every reference, contact, appointment, and facility instruction needed to run the load.
coverage

Appointment scheduling

Book and confirm pickup and delivery appointments across email, phone, and portals. Record agreed times, facility requirements, and reference numbers in the TMS.

Track & trace and ETA

Collect updates from calls, texts, email, APIs, and visibility platforms. Turn them into consistent milestones and update ETAs as conditions change.

Customer service

Answer routine load questions with current shipment context. Send milestone and delay alerts across email, text, and customer portals before customers ask.

Exception recovery

Handle reschedules, no-shows, late pickups, missed deliveries, driver check-in issues, and facility conflicts. Coordinate recovery and keep every affected party current.

Accessorial management

Detect breakdowns, rejected loads, route disruptions, detention, and lumper requests. Follow the customer SOP, secure approvals, and keep costs and documents tied to the load.
settlement

Document collection

Collect BOLs, PODs, scale tickets, lumper receipts, and accessorial forms. Match every document to the right load, flag missing items, and trigger billing.

Invoicing and collections

Build invoices using account-specific rules and submit them by email, EDI, or portal. Answer billing questions and follow up on unpaid balances.

Carrier settlement

Match carrier invoices to rates, BOLs, PODs, receipts, and accessorials. Reconcile discrepancies, approve payment, and route true exceptions for review.

Margin leakage audit

Compare carrier costs with customer charges and flag negative-margin loads before invoices and settlements are finalized.

Claims resolution

Open claims with complete evidence, track liability decisions and deadlines, and keep customers, carriers, and internal teams current through resolution.
