Purpose-built to transform logistics operations, its new ‘Logistics Services as Software’ model enables manufacturers, distributors, and retailers to replace manual, error-prone tasks with intelligent automation to unlock unprecedented efficiency and cost savings by replacing the need for hiring additional staff or more software with AI agents. Pi redefines both logistics and talent strategies, accelerating the shift toward a world where Human Intelligence and Artificial Intelligence work together to drive complex business processes. Pando’s AI Agents act as a team of smart analysts, empowering logistics managers to delegate important yet repetitive decisions to these agents, who execute them with unmatched accuracy.
Pando’s AI Teams are already deployed at some of the world’s largest brands. Seamlessly integrated with business systems, third-party tools, and market data Pando creates an enterprise-specific supply chain knowledge graph. This dynamic, real-time representation of the logistics network continuously trains enterprise-specific Logistics Language Models® (LLMs) that not only understand multi-modal global logistics but precisely understand the context of individual businesses and their networks. This allows Pando’s AI Teams to execute repetitive tasks and decisions in freight and transportation management with high precision.
With more data and continuous learning, AI Teams take on increasingly complex and high-value logistics decisions. For example, Pando’s AI Teams now procure freight across multiple modes and geographies, ensuring optimal pricing and carrier selection for both spot and long-term contracts autonomously. It determines the best modal mix, optimizes carrier allocations, bundles lanes, negotiates rates, and finalizes contracts, all while ensuring alignment with broader service level expectations. AI Teams can also audit, validate invoices, execute claims processes, and pay freight invoices across all modes, services, and currencies, identifying discrepancies and even resolving disputes by collaborating directly with carriers to resolve invoice disputes.
“Logistics teams are burdened with too many ‘keep-the-lights-on’ tasks—chasing carriers, negotiating spot rates, validating invoices—leaving little room for strategic initiatives. With Pando, we are bringing the power of AI to logistics decision-making, freeing teams to focus on what truly matters. This isn’t about automation for automation’s sake; it’s about super-powering logistics to be true revenue partners to the business,” said Nitin Jayakrishnan, CEO of Pando.
