On this page

Freight forwarders, customs agents, and logistics service providers operate in a sector with high regulatory pressure, time-critical processes, and international dependencies. AI agents automate the shipment management, customs compliance, and client portal flows.

Shipment Management and Track-and-Trace

An AI agent manages the shipment flow: shipments are automatically created based on the shipper's order. Statuses are automatically updated based on information from carriers, shipping lines, and airlines. Clients are automatically informed on status changes.

  • Shipment: automatically created per order
  • Status: automatically updated from carrier feeds
  • Alert: automatically on delay or exception
  • Client portal: automatically updated in real-time

Customs Declaration and Tariff Management

Customs declaration and tariff management are operationally critical for customs agents. An AI agent manages the declaration flow: customs declarations are automatically prepared based on shipment documentation. HS codes are automatically validated.

  • Declaration: automatically prepared per shipment
  • HS code: automatically validated
  • Tariff: automatically calculated per destination country
  • Sanctions screening: automatically per party

Client Portal and Reporting

Client portal and reporting are essential for logistics service providers for client retention and transparency. An AI agent manages the portal component: clients have 24/7 real-time insight into their shipments, documents, and invoices.

Your Company OS implements AI agents for freight forwarders (air, sea, road, rail), customs agents, logistics service providers (3PL, 4PL), warehousing companies, importers/exporters with own logistics, and combined supply chain service providers that want to automate their shipment management, customs compliance, and client portal.
