Quoting is where CargoCloud starts, not where it stops. The platform executes the whole shipment lifecycle: booking, trip building, dispatch, in-transit tracking, documents, and invoicing.

Booking and orders

An accepted quote books into an order with a register-based financial architecture underneath — costs, revenue, and settlements are tracked per order, with role-based redaction so each party sees what they should.

Trips and consolidation

Trips carry one order or many, with sequenced multi-stop support and per-stop mileage.
The Consolidation Planner finds candidate orders that can share a truck and assembles multi-stop options, backed by Google’s Route Optimization API with cost allocated across the partial loads on the trip.

Dispatch and drivers

Dispatch reaches carriers and drivers over email and SMS — SMS runs on an approved A2P messaging campaign, verified live in production.
Drivers work from a secure, tokenized portal link: GPS location pings, freight photos, document capture, two-way messaging with dispatch, itemized expense submission with receipts, and per-driver pay statements.

Tracking

Computed ETAs with on-time, late, and no-data flags; order-level flags for missing documents, detention, and holdovers; and driver events that move shipment status automatically. A tracking agent escalates trouble on a graduated ladder.

Documents and verification

BOLs, rate confirmations, manifests, invoices, and driver settlements are generated server-side as PDFs — and delivery paperwork (PODs and BOLs) is verified by an AI model before invoicing relies on it.

Invoicing

Draft invoices are created automatically on delivery, with a register-based generation path, carrier and driver settlement documents, and an autonomous invoicing agent that sends ready invoices and escalates blocked ones.
