## AI built for speed, precision, automation, and scale

Transform your shipping operations with the only AI engine built for enterprise supply chains

## Shipping AI    fits your existing operations while unlocking new ways of working.

### COORDINATE

### Unify CX, Ops, and Finance

Shipium's intelligence layer sits across your existing systems to orchestrate workflows that deliver faster, on-time, and more profitably.

### OPTIMIZE

### Drive better outcomes with always-on intelligence

Supply chains offer endless opportunities for improvement. There’s usually a better delivery date to present, warehouse to ship from, or carrier to select. Shipium’s models optimize these critical decisions based on your business criteria, unique network properties, and real-world conditions.

### AUTONOMOUS

### Scale decision-making with fleets of AI agents

Go from optimization to true autonomy. Shipping AI agents monitor and manage your response to the stream of events — like labor disputes or major storms — that can arise on any given day. Agents also get smarter as they execute across your network and engage with operators, improving outcomes the more they’re used

### STREAMLINE

### Eliminate manual shipping operations tasks

Reclaim hours of manual tasks by automating the routine. Reach new levels of efficiency by eliminating time-consuming tasks like data entry, rate card management, invoice discrepancy analysis and more.

## The power of the platform

### DATA

### Differentiated data fuels informed intelligence

Shipium centralizes data across a single cloud platform, enabling you to power models using large datasets you wouldn’t otherwise have access to.

### MODEL

### AI models purpose-built for shipping

The platform houses a library of models that generate predictions using platform-wide data combined with the uniqueness of your network. The models learn your operations over time, continuously tailoring themselves to the constraints of your business.

### AI Workflows

### Improve human interaction and system decisions

Shipping AI is a mix of human-based experiences and system-to-system orchestration. The platform provides both, helping ensure better intelligence and operational efficiency.

## How Shipium's AI roadmap future-proofs your supply chain with a category-defining vision.

### Smarter at the core

Superior predictive accuracy driven by data and industry-leading ML.

### Go from static to dynamic operations

Predict anything, optimize everything

Incorporate differentiated data

### Smarter at the core

Too many shippers still rely on static data and inflexible configurations. This leaves them vulnerable to unexpected disruptions, missed opportunities, and subpar decision-making.

Shipium’s focus on real-time predictive accuracy enables you to design processes that account for what’s actually going on in the world. By using dynamic models that learn from each customer’s unique network and account for external events, you can go from understanding "what happened" to "what will happen."

### Go from static to dynamic operations

Rather than relying on static criteria, we use dynamic machine learning models that continuously adapt to what’s happening in your network. Models learn from every shipment, enabling us to continuously improve outcomes and expand to new use cases our customers are focused on.

### Predict anything, optimize everything

By modeling factors like real-world transit times and carrier capacity limits, we can predict the likely outcomes of process decisions and help you chart the best path forward.

### Incorporate differentiated data

Our models are trained using external, real-time data sources. We account for things like weather, traffic, and carrier events to augment your data and create a more accurate picture of what's happening.

### Humans + AI

Give your operators modern tools that offer unprecedented control.

### Work with a copilot

Get actionable recommendations

### Humans + AI

It's difficult to identify meaningful insights from massive datasets and even harder to confidently implement changes at the pace and scale required to create value.

That's why we're embedding AI as a co-pilot directly within our platform. Rather than getting bogged down in analysis, you get proactive, prescriptive recommendations that flag opportunities for savings and performance improvement that are impossible to discover manually.

### Work with a co-pilot

We’re building a configuration copilot that proactively suggests optimal settings as you build carrier selection rules. It learns from successful customers, transforming a complex, manual setup process into a simple validation step. This ensures you're always aligned with best practices and set up to achieve your desired outcomes.

### Get actionable recommendations

Our AI tools offer prescriptive insights that no single shipper could generate on their own. Our system analyzes your data to flag opportunities — from reducing late delivery rates to identifying cost-saving carrier options — moving you from passive analysis to active optimization.

### Efficiency across the board

AI practices that help you reap value from your technology investments, faster.

### Slash onboarding time

Streamline integration

Eliminate manual risk

### Efficiency across the board

One of the core benefits of AI is being able to accelerate tasks that are historically labor-intensive. This doesn’t just mean coordinating supply chain workflows — it also means simplifying technology management and helping to maximize the value of your investments faster.

At Shipium, we’re committed to using AI to make common tasks more efficient. This includes speeding up network configuration, simplifying integration, and eliminating the risks that result from manual processes.

### Slash onboarding time

We’re using AI to quickly complete necessary onboarding tasks, such as creating accurate configurations for new origins. What was once a multi-week, carrier-dependent process now becomes a day-one capability, getting you up and running faster than ever before.

### Streamline integration

Our team internally leverages an AI-powered mapping tool to automatically translate data from your host system into a format the Shipium API can consume. This drastically reduces complex data mapping and ensures faster, more scalable integrations with fewer errors.

### Eliminate manual risk

We deploy ML models to automate the validation of carrier rates and surcharges. This directly addresses a significant source of manual effort and financial risk, ensuring your pricing is always accurate and up to date without the need for constant human intervention.

### The agentic future

Specialized agents that handle the busywork while operators focus on high-value initiatives.

### Intuitively engage with agents

Identify and automate changes

### The agentic future

Today’s operators are stuck with technology that isn’t built for modern supply chains. Spending time analyzing why an order wasn’t shipped or manually adjusting to a carrier outage isn’t useful. From a business perspective, it’s a poor use of employees’ time.

That’s why we’re building AI agents to handle use cases that traditionally require manual intervention, but shouldn’t.

### Engage with agents

We’re working toward implementing a natural language interface that allows you to ask complex questions and get clear answers, fast. For example, rather than running a time-intensive manual report, you can simply ask an AI agent, "Simulate the cost impact of switching 20% of my volume from Carrier A to Carrier B."

### Identify and automate changes

Agents run autonomously in the background to identify and execute changes. With your pre-defined goals — like "minimize cost" or "maximize on-time delivery" — these agents will gradually shift from suggesting changes to autonomously implementing them, creating a truly self-optimizing system.

## Shipping just got smarter.   Our customers are proof.

Customers lean on our AI foundation to make their teams smarter and systems more resilient.

### Atomix turns shipping from complexity into benefits for its customers
