For the last 20 years, enterprise shippers adopted systems of records (TMS/YMS/WMS) and then had to allocate a large team of specialists to "operate the software", clicking through buttons and workflows the whole day. This is finally changing. Logistics Operators can now manage a team of Agents and not worry about clicking through WMS, TMSs and YMS screens - which will remain useful systems of records but ultimately will see the UI relegated to agentic interface. That will speed up execution dramatically, eliminate errors and free up time for Operators to work on higher value initiatives and strategic work. -- Talk to us to build your first AI Agent - the pilot cost is on us. #freight #loadsmart #logistics

Gartner expects 40%+ of agentic AI projects to be canceled by 2027. At 1871’s Supply Chain Innovation Summit, I talked about why, and what we do differently at Loadsmart: 1) Ownership. Projects driven by the operators who feel the pain beat projects run by a central AI committees or IT team. Don't let these two be the bottleneck. 2) Scope. Big visions lead to complex architectures, which take years, which leads to cancellation. That’s the legacy playbook applied to a new technology. 3) Speed. Narrow use case, limited agent autonomy, in production in 60 days. Each deployment builds expertise and trust, and the next one ships faster. Momentum compounds. Transformation decks don’t. Let us know if you want an agent live in your logistics operation in 60 days.

This is a great one-pager summary of Loadsmart and our 3-layers of revenue: Layer 1: freight services - we move freight on behalf of the largest shippers in the world and know all operational difficulties - and service level requirements - associated with that. Layer 2: software - we provide a modern unified TMS-YMS/Dock Scheduling solution that covers end-to-end transportation needs: dock>yard>gate>planning> optimization>execution>settlement - the whole journey in one system of records. Layer 3: AI Orchestration - a platform to create and manage AI agents that execute high volume/ repetitive tasks on top of your WMS-TMS-YMS systems - no need to replace them. #logistics #freight #loadsmart #ai

Every shipment has a paper trail, and most of it still arrives by email waiting to be filed. Loadsmart AI acts on it at the inbox: documents matched to shipments, missing milestones filled, missing charges queued for review. hubs.li/Q04Dv7jJ0

📞 Most transportation teams still run on calls, emails, and a few people who handle every exception. At Sightline 2027, Derek Taliaferro and Michael Evans talked about how to decide what AI should own and what your team keeps. hubs.li/Q04DsWwK0  #Sightline2027 #Loadsmart

Most TMS RFPs score screens and workflows. Within one to two years, AI agents will make more than half the clicks inside a TMS. Buy the system of record and the orchestration layer as one decision. Felipe Capella on what to score instead: hubs.li/Q04DbMdd0

🚚 Your dock, gate, and yard already generate the data your team needs.  At Sightline 2027, Aaron Thomas (Director of Engineering, Dock and Yard) and Nate Allan (VP of Enterprise and Partnerships) showed how Opendock is putting AI to work. hubs.li/Q04CsHW30

Freight data quality is set at the gate, by the form a driver is handed. The Loadsmart platform now matches the check-in form to the load type, so every field in every report traces back to the load it came from.

What does AI look like in freight for Enterprise Shippers? At Loadsmart Sightline, one answer: document collection. Our blog shows how an AI agent takes chasing and filing freight docs off your team's plate. Session video inside, no forms. hubs.li/Q04yCbt30
