Freight Bill Audit Agent

Parse the contract, match the transaction, assemble the evidence pack.

Target outcome: 1 to 3% freight recovery

The business problem

Recover 3 to 5% of freight and logistics spend

Freight invoices arrive faster than finance can audit them. Overcharges from rate mismatches and escalation clauses sit until a periodic review, if one happens at all.

What we deploy

Freight Bill Audit Agent

Continuous audit of freight bills against contracted rates, escalation clauses, and lane history. Overcharge recovery without waiting for a periodic manual review.

How this agent runs

Every agent follows the same operating loop on your stack: audit the evidence, decide with confidence scores, execute with human approval, and record results back to your systems.

Audit

Full coverage on the transactions and documents you choose: contracts, invoices, dispatches, disputes.

Decide

Confidence-scored recommendations with counterfactuals, tax feasibility, and policy rules applied first.

Execute

Human-in-the-loop for consequential actions. Agents prepare; your team approves.

Record

Clean results posted back to your ERP, WMS, or operational systems with a full audit trail.

What we need from you

Data and systems

  • Dispatch and TMS exports (typically 6 to 24 months)
  • Carrier contracts, rate cards, and lane master data
  • ERP shipment, cost, and inventory feeds or scheduled CSV drops

Typical timeline

Guaranteed assessment in 8 to 12 weeks on your exports. Production rollout follows once the savings case clears your hurdle.

8 to 12 weeks on your exports and operational data. A defensible outcome number before you commit to rollout. We agree the baseline and success metric before deployment starts.

Key capabilities

Match every bill to contracted rates and lane history as invoices land

Flag escalation and accessorial overcharges with clause-level evidence

Package recovery packs finance can action without re-reading contracts

How we deploy it

8 to 12 weeks on your exports and operational data. A defensible outcome number before you commit to rollout. Same operating model on every agent: scope, deploy, measure, then scale or hand off.

Step 1

Scope

Agree one outcome, baseline KPI, and the exports or systems the agent will read.

Step 2

Deploy

Agent live on your ERP, WMS, or operational files within the engagement window.

Step 3

Measure

Track results against the baseline with named transactions and audit trails.

Step 4

Scale

Expand to adjacent modules or run independently. You own the code from day one.

Good fit if

  • Audit is sample-based or quarterly, not continuous
  • Carrier disputes drag because evidence is assembled manually
  • You suspect 1 to 3% recovery but cannot prove it shipment by shipment

Frequently asked questions

How is this different from a periodic freight audit?+

It runs continuously, matching every bill against contracted rates, escalation clauses, and lane history as invoices arrive, rather than waiting for a quarterly manual review.

What evidence does it produce for recovery?+

Each overcharge flag comes with contract clause, transaction match, and lane history assembled into an evidence pack your finance team can action without re-reading spreadsheets.

What systems does it connect to?+

Freight bills, carrier contracts, and TMS or ERP exports. No rip-and-replace of your existing logistics stack.

Can it dispute carriers on our behalf?+

It prepares recovery packs with clause-level evidence. Your finance or logistics team submits disputes; the agent does not auto-debit carriers without human approval.

How quickly do we see recoverable dollars?+

Most pilots flag overcharges within the first billing cycle once contracts and lane history are loaded. Full continuous audit follows after baseline validation.
