Boon
The AI Workforce for Freight & Fleet Ops

What is Boon?

Boon offers an AI workforce designed to enhance freight and fleet operations by automating time-consuming and repetitive tasks. Its core strength lies in AI agents that are purpose-built to handle specific jobs, effectively reducing the manual workload on teams. Boon intelligently connects with existing operational systems, such as Transportation Management Systems (TMS), Electronic Logging Devices (ELDs), payroll, and fuel programs, without necessitating a complete overhaul of current infrastructure. This approach ensures a swift deployment and minimal disruption to ongoing operations.

By automating high-friction tasks like load booking, driver updates, log auditing, and payroll calculations, Boon helps to minimize errors and operational delays. This allows teams to redirect their focus towards critical activities like managing freight and revenue generation, rather than getting bogged down by administrative processes. Furthermore, Boon captures vital information from diverse communication channels like emails, texts, and calls, transforming previously scattered 'tribal knowledge' into a centralized, accessible operational intelligence base. This fosters better-informed decision-making and accelerates the onboarding process for new employees.

Features

  • AI Agent Automation: Specialized AI agents automate repetitive tasks such as booking loads, updating drivers, auditing HoS logs, and processing payroll.
  • Seamless System Integration: Connects with existing TMS (e.g., McLeod, Axon), ELDs (e.g., Samsara, Motive), payroll (e.g., Paycom), and fuel programs (e.g., Comdata) without system replacement.
  • No Retraining Required: Enables teams to continue using their familiar tools and workflows, minimizing operational disruption.
  • Multi-Channel Operation: Agents interface through voice, email, and portals, ensuring functionality even when direct API access is unavailable.
  • Operational Intelligence Platform: Captures and centralizes critical information from emails, texts, and calls to create a shareable knowledge base.
  • Purpose-Built Agents: Each AI agent is specifically trained for a particular job, ensuring high accuracy and rapid time-to-value.
