Logistics & supply chain use case
Exception management
The operating problem, the system we deploy, and the one metric it should move. Scoped as a specification, not a slogan.
The operating problem
Watching every lane by hand is impossible, so delays and short shipments surface late, after the recovery options have shrunk.
What we deploy
An exception assistant that watches shipment and inventory signals, flags loads gone off plan, and proposes a recovery action with drafted notifications.
- Watches shipment and inventory signals
- Flags loads that have gone off plan
- Proposes a recovery action and drafts notifications
Where it goes nextExtend to root-cause clustering that shows which lanes and carriers drive repeat exceptions.
Your data remains under your control.

Carrier coordination
Each shipment is a long carrier email thread, and coordinators chase confirmations all day while the status they quote is already stale.
A coordination assistant that reads carrier emails and shipment records, keeps a current status per load, and drafts the booking and update messages.
Dock scheduling
Dock appointments live on a whiteboard, so trucks bunch up and doors sit idle while the WMS data that would smooth the yard goes unused.
A scheduling assistant that reads inbound and outbound plans and door availability and proposes appointment slots that smooth the yard.
How every use case is scoped
The same four questions, every time
Every use case is scoped around the operating problem, the system, the metric, and the time to value. Nothing ships without a number to move and a source it can cite. The first step is the deployment review, where we map the business process to your systems and agree the metric before building.
