Freight Audit Is Broken: Real-Time AI Fixes It

Freight audit is broken when you’re finding billing mistakes a month later. This is how real-time AI freight audit catches shipment cost errors as they happen. Shipium’s Jason Murray and Penny Allen break down Always on Audit, why monthly invoice reviews miss the real problem, and how continuous auditing ties the shipment record to the invoice, disputes and credits in real time. Strong discussion on digital twins, messy carrier data, AI agents and the gap between what a shipment should cost and what shows up on the bill. #FreightAudit #SupplyChainTech #ParcelShipping Shipium has launched Always On Audit, an AI-driven freight audit product designed to replace the traditional monthly batch review of carrier invoices with continuous, real-time auditing at the shipment level.

Truckload Volumes Drop 15% — But Spot Rates Stay Hot

Truckload volumes dropped 15% after Labor Day, but spot rates are still elevated and tender rejections haven’t cracked. That’s the freight market story right now. In this SONAR update, we break down the post-holiday volume pullback, why reefer is still tighter than van, what rising diesel means for rates, and why intermodal contract pricing is starting to move. If you need the fast read on truckload, reefer, rail and ocean, this is it. Truckload volumes fell nearly 15% on Wednesday, September 9, as the freight market pulled back from a pre-Labor Day surge, according to FreightWaves’ Sonar Truckload Volume Index (STVI).

Amazon Cargo Jet Crash: What Went Wrong in MiamiTrade & Logistics

Amazon Cargo Jet Crash: What Went Wrong in Miami

Amazon freighter crash details are getting clearer: the NTSB says the jet touched down about 1,000 feet long and may have gone to full thrust before leaving the runway in Miami. FreightWaves’ Eric Kulisch breaks down what investigators know so far about the Amazon-contracted 767, the missing braking/safety systems, runway impacts at MIA, and why this load may have been more than just Amazon parcels. Watch for the latest on the Miami cargo plane crash, the NTSB timeline, and what it means for air cargo operators. A Boeing 767 freighter operated by 21 Air — a small North Carolina-based contractor flying for Amazon — overran the runway at Miami International Airport on Sunday afternoon after arriving from San Juan, Puerto Rico on its third flight of the day. The crash killed five of seven people riding in an Econoline van used by an aircraft cleaning contractor, and left wreckage strewn across a road and into a grassy field beyond the airport perimeter.
