AI carrier check calls

# Every answer lands on the load

A call that only talks still leaves someone to type. This one writes the status and tells the desk when the plan is broken.

## What is an AI carrier check call?

An AI carrier check call is a spoken status check that writes the answer onto the load and starts the next step when the plan is wrong.

### Conversation

The check call is spoken. SMS carries other messages, including the confirmation after the call.

### Record

Confirmed, a new ETA, delayed with a reason, delivered with exceptions, or no answer.

### Follow-through

A wrong plan is written back and the desk that owns the replan hears about it. A carrier change stops the old run and starts a new one.

## What are the five stages?

### Pickup confirm

The driver, the window, and whether the truck will make it.

### In-transit ETA

Current ETA against the delivery appointment, written back when it moves.

### Delivery

Arrived, delayed, or a problem at the door.

### Post-delivery paperwork

POD, exceptions, detention, and lumper, each on the load.

### Silence and no-answer chase

A rule for attempts, gaps, and when silence becomes an exception.

## When does the phone ring?

The published freight pattern calls two hours before pickup. A separate production pattern, used for maintenance, checks availability over an API before it dials and holds the call if that check fails. On the freight deployment, about 90% of loads were already tracked, so the calls were reserved for what a ping cannot say. For a brokerage, the stake is the missed-pickup window and the service record.

Example of live work, not a result

Check call 4829: ETA written to TMS. A blown tire can take the carrier off the load and open a search for another.

FAQ

## Frequently asked questions

### Which companies offer AI carrier check calls?

Moneiva runs AI carrier check calls that write back to the TMS. The how-to for eliminating check calls lives on the Insights guide.

### What does an AI check call write back to the TMS?

One of five outcomes: confirmed, a new ETA, delayed with a reason, delivered with exceptions, or no answer. That outcome is the record. The TMS stays the system of record.

### How does it decide when to call a driver?

Before it dials, a production maintenance pattern checks the list, skips a driver already called, and confirms availability over an API. If the check fails, the call is held and retried.

### What happens on no answer?

Attempt count, spacing, and the point where silence becomes an exception are all rules. Voicemail and IVR outcomes are stored with each attempt.

### Does it cover post-delivery paperwork?

The same call pattern confirms the POD, a clean bill or the exceptions, and accessorials such as detention and lumper. Each item is written on the load.

### How does it work alongside GPS tracking?

A ping shows the truck. The appointment, a changed plan, and the reason a truck stopped still need a call. On the published carrier deployment, tracking already covered about 90% of loads, so the build targeted the calls tracking could not answer.

### How fast can we pilot it?

Live in weeks, on one high-volume job, in your operation, on your data, before a wider rollout.
