"For readers who may be interested in how convoys are germane to machine learning and AI, I recommend reviewing Convoy.com and reading the following article by AWS, “Convoy Is Revolutionizing Trucking Through Machine Learning.” Best to get up to speed . . ."

"Leveraging AI to build out models to facilitate that relevance is something we put quite a bit of emphasis on.”

Convoy is disrupting the model by using artificial intelligence (AI) to automate it. “We’ve created a digital online marketplace through our mobile application where carriers and drivers can use it to directly find work,” says David Tsai, senior manager of marketplace and data platform engineering at Convoy.

Convoy’s approach uses machine learning, an AI technique, to provide better matches for shippers and truckers, allowing them to move freight more efficiently—and lowering costs for both parties—using Convoy’s matching system. Bigger shippers that have computerized systems in-house can also integrate Convoy’s online digital marketplace into their own.

Save Money...save the planet.

For the Planet
Shippers and carriers leverage our technology and data to help reduce empty miles and lower carbon emissions. Together we’re creating a more sustainable and responsible supply chain and saving the planet while we do it.

Convoy Team
Convoy is the nation's leading digital freight network. We move thousands of truckloads around the country each day through our optimized, connected network of carriers, saving money for shippers, increasing earnings for drivers, and eliminating carbon waste for our planet. We use technology and data to solve problems of waste and inefficiency in the $800B trucking industry, which generates over 87 million metric tons of wasted CO2 emissions from empty trucks. Fortune 500 shippers like Anheuser-Busch, P&G, Niagara, and Unilever trust Convoy to lower costs, increase logistics efficiency, and achieve environmental sustainability targets.

The insatiable appetite of the AI for more and more data will continue to infect this realm.
