The Industry’s Bottleneck
Freight moves rapidly, but operations lag due to manual workflows. Teams spend countless hours processing invoices, generating quotes, and entering order details. When demand surges, businesses face a dilemma: allow delays to accumulate or hire additional staff to manage the increased workload.
Hiring presents its own set of challenges. Approximately 70% of freight brokerages outsource operations to regions like Latin America and the Philippines. While this approach aims to reduce costs, it introduces complexities in finding reliable partners and managing remote teams. The process of establishing and overseeing offshore teams can be daunting, often leading to inefficiencies and communication barriers. Additionally, outsourcing doesn't always scale effectively with fluctuating demand, leaving companies struggling to maintain service levels.
Errors are inevitable in such a system. Misquoted orders, unpaid invoices, and shrinking margins become common issues. The primary challenge isn't the lack of freight but the inefficiencies embedded in traditional processes.
How AI Agents Are Changing the Game
AI agents eliminate the busy work that slows freight companies down. Instead of hiring more staff to process paperwork, AI can handle it instantly.
With AI, businesses can:
- Generate freight quotes in seconds
- Process invoices automatically
- Enter and verify orders with zero human effort
- Pull reports and insights without digging through spreadsheets
Automation like this doesn’t just speed up operations. It reduces errors, lowers costs, and frees up teams to focus on higher-value work.
No-Code AI That Anyone Can Use
Most AI solutions are built for developers. Mentium isn’t.
With Mentium, teams can automate freight workflows using plain English. No coding, no complex integrations. Just tell the AI what you need, and it gets it done.
- Need AI to handle invoicing? Describe the workflow
- Want to automate rate quoting? Give it a simple command
- Looking for instant reporting? AI pulls the data in seconds
This makes automation accessible for every freight company, not just enterprise players with big tech budgets.
AI That Works With Your Existing Systems
The biggest roadblock to AI adoption? Integration.
Most automation tools force businesses to switch platforms or rebuild processes from scratch. That’s a nonstarter for most freight companies.
Mentium is different. It works with the tools and systems you already use. No platform migrations. No IT headaches. Just seamless AI-driven automation that fits into your existing workflow.
What’s Next?
AI isn’t a future trend. It’s happening now. The companies that embrace automation today will be the ones leading the freight industry tomorrow.
Manual work is a bottleneck. AI is the solution. The only question is, who’s ready to move faster?
