AI for Logistics Companies

Quotes go cold, and invoices run late because reminders get written by hand. We build AI into the tools you already use and train your team to run it.

Less Time Chasing Quotes and Invoices

McCarthy's AI works with logistics firms of 10 to 500 people on the office work around every shipment. Each build runs in your own accounts through an AI agent we set up, and a person approves anything that goes out.

Three Jobs That Run on Chasing

  1. 01

    Quotes that go cold

    Shippers ask several companies for a rate. A quote that sits in a busy rep's inbox gets no follow-up, and the buyer moves on.

  2. 02

    Invoices that age

    Delivery paperwork and payment status live in different places. Late accounts get noticed after month-end, and someone writes each reminder by hand.

  3. 03

    Instructions buried in email

    Each customer has its own receiving hours and handling rules, and dispatchers and new hires dig through old email threads to find them.

Where AI Helps First

Quote follow-ups that go out on time

Every open quote gets a follow-up plan. The agent drafts the messages, your rep approves each one and it goes out on schedule, so fewer quotes go cold.

Invoice reminders before accounts age

Overdue invoices come out of your accounting system, and the agent drafts a polite reminder for each. Your accounts team approves them, and they go out before the account ages.

A company brain for customer instructions

Dispatchers ask for a customer's receiving hours or the claims procedure in plain language. The answer points to the email or document it came from.

The Monday report

Numbers from your accounting system and CRM arrive in one report each Monday with a short written summary, and late invoices are flagged.

Common Questions

Still deciding? On a free 30-minute call we'll tell you what fits.

  • Will this work with our dispatch and transport systems?

    First builds use tools you already have, such as your CRM and accounting software. In the audit we look at what your dispatch system can export or connect to, and any build that reads from it is scoped once the first one ships.

  • Can the agent contact customers on its own?

    Every message waits for a person's approval before it goes out. The agent drafts quote follow-ups and invoice reminders, and your rep or accounts clerk reviews and sends each one.

  • Can customer rates and shipment details go into AI?

    We start with the right AI plan and settings and only use data you approve. Rates and delivery details stay in your own accounts, and if you need private hosting, we'll say so.

AI productivity research: task gains most firms haven't turned into profit

Controlled trials show generative AI speeding up writing, coding, consulting and support work, with the biggest gains going to newer and less-skilled staff. Economy-wide savings are still small, and the firms reporting results are more likely to have redesigned the work around the tool.
