    Product Info

    What is Vector?

    Vector is a connected logistics platform that automates the capture, validation, and delivery of transportation documents, streamlines workflows and yard management, and improves end-to-end visibility and coordination. It eliminates manual paperwork, enhances communication between carriers, shippers, and drivers, accelerating settlements.

    Designed for enterprise transportation ecosystems, Vector integrates with major TMS and WMS platforms, telematics providers, and driver mobile applications, enabling improved visibility and smoother operations across the entire network.

    How does document capture work?

    Drivers use the Vector mobile app to scan or upload documents. Optical Character Recognition (OCR) and AI-based classification process the images instantly. The system indexes metadata, validates completeness, and sends structured data to the connected systems.

    How does workflow automation work?

    Vector automates back-office workflows by linking captured documents with load IDs, shipment references, or driver profiles. Once validated, data flows automatically to billing, payroll, and analytics systems via APIs or secure file transfers.

    What integrations does Vector support?

    Vector integrates with leading transportation and telematics systems, including:

    • BlueYonder
    • WiseTech (E2Open)
    • Eleos
    • Geotab
    • ISAAC
    • Infios (Körber)
    • Infios
    • Redprairie
    • Legacy Redprairie
    • Made4net

    • Motive
    • Oracle
    • PeopleNet
    • Platform Science
    • Samsara
    • SAP
    • Transflo
    • Uber Freight
    • Custom enterprise APIs

    Is Vector cloud-based?

    Yes. Vector is a fully cloud-hosted SaaS application with optional hybrid deployment for enterprise customers requiring on-premise integration or data residency control.

    Can Vector work offline?

    Yes. The Vector mobile app allows drivers to capture documents and data offline. Files are automatically synced when connectivity is restored.

    Is there a free trial?

    Vector does not offer a free trial, but we do occasionally offer paid pilots to carriers.

    How much does it cost?

    Pricing is subscription-based, scaled by feature set, integration level, and number of active drivers.

    Features Overview

    Facilities

    eBOL

    Electronic Bill of Lading (eBOL) digitizes the traditional paper bill of lading. Facilities can generate, receive, and manage BOLs digitally, reducing manual data entry, improving accuracy, and accelerating handoffs between shippers, carriers, and consignees.

    Digital Check-In

    Digital Check-In replaces clipboards and long gate queues with a mobile-first, self-service check-in experience. Drivers can check in, submit required information and documents from their device. Guards or clerks are able to send yard / dock assignments and instructions via Vector direct to the driver device. Vector also has kiosk options that allow check in, check out, or ad hock printing.

    Yard Management

    Yard Management provides real-time visibility into trailers, doors, and yard assets. Facilities can track trailer locations, statuses, and movements, coordinate loading/unloading, and reduce dwell time and yard congestion.

    Appointment Scheduling

    Appointment Scheduling centralizes inbound and outbound appointment requests. Shippers, carriers, and brokers can schedule, modify, and confirm time slots, helping facilities smooth volume peaks, reduce bottlenecks, and improve on-time performance.

    Carrier

    Document Capture

    Document Capture enables drivers and carrier staff to capture, upload, and submit load documents (e.g., BOL, POD, lumper receipts) in real time. Images and files are associated with the correct load, shipment, or order for faster billing and settlement.

    Imaging (OCR + AI)

    Imaging leverages Optical Character Recognition (OCR) and AI to extract structured data from documents. The system auto-classifies document types, reads key fields (e.g., PRO numbers, BOL numbers, dates, totals), and reduces manual keying in back-office workflows.

    Rendition Billing

    Rendition Billing assembles the correct document package needed for invoicing, attaches supporting documents to bills, and pushes ready-to-bill loads into the customer’s financial or TMS/ERP systems. This helps carriers accelerate cash flow and reduce billing exceptions.

    Carrier Connect + Program

    Carrier Connect + Program standardizes how carriers connect into shipper and 3PL workflows. It provides a unified way for carriers to exchange documents, status updates, and compliance information, improving collaboration and reducing onboarding and integration friction.
