ShipperGuide TMS

ShipperGuide is an AI-native transportation management system (TMS) built on the Loadsmart Platform. It plans, procures, executes, tracks, and settles freight across a shipper's entire transportation network, with AI agents running the repetitive operational work — tendering, tracking, document collection, auditing, and scheduling — so teams shift from operating the system to supervising it. It is developed by Loadsmart and is designed for organizations that manage recurring freight volume and require structured transportation workflows without the complexity of legacy enterprise systems.
