BeyondTrucks launched BeyondTrucks RateAgents, what is dubbed as a first-of-its-kind coding agent for addressing rate complexity, giving carriers the ability to describe their rate logic in plain language and watch it come to life as working software – instantly.
“Traditional TMS providers have spent decades building out rating functionality,” says Hans Galland, CEO of BeyondTrucks. “And yet, many carriers have no choice but to rely on spreadsheets, expensive custom code, or even stand-alone rating engines to manage their rate tables. Today, BeyondTrucks changes that with the industry’s first rating agent powered by generative AI.”
Key takeaways:
· Using large language model (LLM) technology, the BeyondTrucks RateAgents allows carriers to describe their rate formulas in plain language, exactly as they or their shipper would define them, and automatically translates that description into working code within the BeyondTrucks platform. Users can then test the output before deploying the code into their rate tables.
· BeyondTrucks is rolling out RateAgents for fuel surcharges (FSC), which are calculated differently by virtually every fleet customer in the industry. Now, non-technical users are empowered with capabilities once reserved for trained software engineers.
“Our users are carriers whose operations are deeply embedded in their customers' supply chains and often have complex rating functions linked to the unique set of activities they perform," adds Galland. "This new offering is part of a broader shift in how BeyondTrucks is approaching platform flexibility, moving technical capability closer to the operational teams who understand the business.
