Shipwell's solution combines transportation management, visibility, procurement and more in a comprehensive, easy-to-use platform. Backed by powerful data and analytics capabilities, Shipwell's most recent breakthrough is the industry's first integration of ChatGPT with a transportation management platform (TMS) platform. The integration enables users to automate the email freight quoting processes and provide real-time updates on shipment status to customers. The NLP technology also helps in providing instant and accurate responses to common customer issues, 24/7.
Another recent upgrade focuses on the automation of the procurement process. Aggregating internal and external market data from across the industry to set benchmarks, it supports a mix of reliable national, regional, and local carriers, as well as modes including FTL, LTL, parcel, and intermodal, automatically weighing factors like price and performance in order to uncover the best possible value.
The Shipwell TMS platform also provides the ability to quickly and easily optimize loads for maximum efficiency. Shipwell's Load Optimization feature helps shippers optimize order consolidation and route planning. Leveraging a proprietary algorithm, it assesses orders' details including size, weight, and delivery times in seconds to generate cost-efficient routes with options for customization. The optimized routing also reduces carbon emissions.
"By leveraging the power of AI, users of the Shipwell TMS can achieve faster decision-making and more efficient operations while improving the overall customer experience. Congratulations to Shipwell - our overall pick for 2023's 'Transport Management Company Of The Year,'" said Bryan Vaughn, Managing Director of SupplyTech Breakthrough Awards. "Shipwell's customers have been able to simplify on-demand activities while reaping the benefits of cost savings and service improvements. The potential for their technology to revolutionize the logistics industry is immense. Shipwell is truly leading the way in deploying such technologies."
The mission of the annual SupplyTech Breakthrough Awards program is to conduct the industry's most comprehensive analysis and evaluation of the top technology companies, solutions and products in the supply chain and logistics industry today. This year's program attracted more than 1,400 nominations from over 15 different countries throughout the world.
