Description
Polt.ai is an innovative transportation management system (TMS) designed specifically for freight brokers and third-party logistics providers (3PLs). It transforms shipment data into actionable loads, ensuring a seamless flow from the initial quote to the final invoice. By interpreting rate confirmations and tender emails, Polt efficiently constructs loads, oversees communication with carriers, tracks shipments while providing updates to customers, gathers proof of delivery, and creates invoices. The system includes carrier vetting to verify partners before shipments are dispatched and offers comprehensive reporting on margins categorized by lane, customer, representative, and carrier in a centralized dashboard. By automating routine operational tasks, Polt allows your team to focus on strategic decision-making. Furthermore, it integrates seamlessly with Truckstop for load postings and features an open API for additional flexibility. Pricing plans are based on monthly shipment volume rather than user count, enabling brokerages to expand their teams without incurring higher software costs per user. This adaptability makes Polt a valuable asset for growing logistics operations.
