One load, every channel that touched it

A tender arrives by email, a pickup is confirmed on a call, the driver is texted, and the reply goes back on the original thread. All of it lands on the same load.

The channels freight already uses

Email, phone, SMS, and chat start the work and carry the reply. Nothing is a notification bolted on the side.

Email

Shared inboxes are watched. A tender, rate confirmation, or status question starts a job with the full thread attached.

Voice and SMS

Agents place and answer calls, and text when nobody picks up. Recording and transcript stay on the load.

Chat

The same agent, with the same load in front of it, in Teams, Slack, WhatsApp, or a web widget.

One trail on the load

Every message, call, transcript, and attachment is written to the load it belongs to — not left in someone's inbox.

Connecting a channel

The same path for a mailbox, a phone number, or a chat app.

01

Connect it

Authorize the inbox, number, or chat app. Each channel is scoped to your company and the team that owns it.

02

Say what starts a job

Sender, subject, number, or keyword decides which workflow handles the message and which agent picks it up.

03

Go live

Inbound starts the work. The reply leaves on the same thread, and the exchange is saved to the load.

What we connect

Whichever inbox, number, or chat app you already run. These are examples, not a certified partner list.

Email

Connected through the provider where one exists, and plain IMAP or SMTP where it does not — for example:

OutlookGmailShared inboxesIMAPSMTP
Voice and SMS

Your own numbers, with recording and transcript attached to the load.

Inbound and outbound callingSMSYour own numbersCall recordingLive transcription
Chat

The same agent and the same load, on whichever surface the person is already on — for example:

TeamsSlackWhatsAppWeb chat

What your team stops chasing

Most freight work arrives as a message from someone outside your systems.

Inboxes stop being queues

Tenders, check calls, and status questions are handled as they arrive, instead of waiting for someone to open the shared inbox.

Nights and weekends still get answered

After hours uses the same channels and the same rules, so a late tender does not sit until morning.

Handoffs keep the history

The next person on the load reads the calls, emails, and documents in one place, instead of reconstructing them.
