Manual shipment creation has long slowed down operations, introducing unnecessary delays and manual errors. Our latest update automates the process end-to-end, cutting manual effort by 75% and ensuring faster, more reliable freight execution. Here’s how it works: Our latest NuvoOS update introduces a fully automated, AI-powered shipment creation workflow. Any shipment request received via email is now processed through an AI-driven pipeline that ingests, parses, and extracts key shipment data—identifying the shipper, validating lane configurations, and matching carriers in real time. The system applies conditional logic to verify data completeness, instantly creating shipments or flagging exceptions when necessary. This automation reduces manual workload by 75%, standardizes processes, and eliminates errors—giving operations teams more time to focus on higher-value tasks like securing better rates, optimizing carrier selection, and managing exceptions. Here’s how these improvements directly impact your operation. The operational impact: How your team benefits Earlier carrier visibility Automated shipment creation ensures carriers receive confirmed load details earlier. More planning time means better preparation, fewer missed pickups, and smoother deliveries. Improved OTIF through increased lead time Faster shipment processing minimizes last-minute changes. More lead time helps carriers stay on schedule, improving reliability and ensuring on-time deliveries for your customers. Better carrier selection and pricing Less time spent on manual tasks allows teams to focus on securing better carrier options. Earlier tenders give more flexibility to find competitive rates and match the best carriers to each load. By automating shipment creation through AI, shippers gain earlier carrier assignments and a wider planning window—giving both teams and carriers more time to prepare, secure better rates, and ensure pickups happen on time. This added lead time translates into stronger carrier availability, more reliable pickups, and smoother cross-border execution on every shipment.
