Know about late shipments before your customers call.

Shipment tracking & customer exception agent

Coordinators check carrier portals all day and answer the same status questions. An agent monitors shipment updates, identifies missing or delayed milestones, gathers shipment details, and drafts customer notifications.

The business challenge

Logistics teams manually track deliveries across multiple carriers and systems, investigate exceptions, and respond to customer status requests.

  • Logging into multiple carrier portals
  • Delays discovered when the customer complains
  • Repetitive status emails
  • No single view of exceptions
