Carrier Logistics, LSP44 announce partnership to automate LTL shipment identification

Carrier Logistics and LSP44 have partnered to develop an AI-powered API that can identify less-than-truckload shipments when a shipper or third-party logistics provider does not have the correct tracking number, targeting a source of manual work for carrier customer service teams.
