The "Fragmented Outreach" Problem
Manual lead sourcing for new freight lanes delays route acquisitions by weeks, amid volatile fuel costs and capacity constraints
Generic outreach emails overlook shipper-specific needs like palletized cargo handling or temperature-controlled shipments, failing to secure high-value contracts
Manual tracking of CDL-qualified driver recruitment outreach diverts time from operational planning, such as optimizing load factors and DOT compliance
Inconsistent follow-ups on e-commerce fulfillment prospects lead to lost revenue from missed same-day delivery volume surges
Overwhelmed dispatch teams juggle prospect data while managing fluctuating LTL shipment volumes and carrier rate negotiations
Missed integration opportunities with TMS vendors due to slow outreach, hindering real-time visibility in supply chain tracking

What Clients Say
"Before AIQ Labs, our sales team was buried in spreadsheets tracking potential e-commerce partners for last-mile integrations. Now, the AI handles the heavy lifting—pulling historical shipment data from EDI feeds and drafting personalized emails that actually get replies. We landed two major contracts in Q2 alone, adding 20% to our route capacity without hiring extra drivers, despite fuel price spikes."
Marcus Hale
Operations Director, SwiftRoute Deliveries (Regional Parcel Carrier)
"Implementing their custom outreach tool was a game-changer during the 2023 holiday peak, targeting big-box retailers struggling with last-mile delays and inventory overflow. It boosted our close rate from 15% to 45% in just two months, securing 30% more recurring volume for our urban fleet—it's like the AI anticipates our capacity bottlenecks better than we do."
Elena Vasquez
Sales Manager, UrbanFreight Logistics (Urban Delivery Specialist)
"We were skeptical about automating outreach amid FMCSA regulations and data privacy in logistics, but AIQ built something fully compliant and spot-on for our needs. It saved us about 18 hours a week on targeted pitches for CDL-A drivers with reefer experience, and we've expanded our fleet by 15 refrigerated trucks this year thanks to a 35% increase in qualified leads."
Derek Wong
VP of Growth, MetroHaul Services (Refrigerated Trucking Provider)

Why We're Different
What's Included
Common Questions
How does this automation handle the unique challenges of last-mile delivery sales?
Last-mile sales often involve pitching to e-commerce giants with tight SLAs and fluctuating volumes. Our custom AI analyzes public logistics data, like shipment patterns from sources such as Freightos, to craft pitches that address pain points—such as urban congestion delays or same-day fulfillment needs. We integrate with your TMS to ensure proposals match your actual capabilities, like EV fleet readiness. This results in more relevant outreach, boosting response rates by 3x compared to manual efforts. Unlike generic tools, it's built to scale with your operations, handling everything from small parcel bids to large retailer contracts without missing a beat.
What kind of time savings can we expect in our sales team?
For a typical last-mile company with 5-10 sales reps, manual prospecting—scouring directories for potential shippers and customizing pitches—consumes 15-25 hours weekly. Our AI automates 80% of this: sourcing leads, researching via APIs, and generating drafts in minutes. Clients report reclaiming 18 hours per week on average, per our post-implementation audits. This time shifts to high-value tasks like closing deals or optimizing routes. Industry benchmarks from the American Trucking Associations show similar automations yield a 35% efficiency gain, directly impacting your bottom line by accelerating revenue from new delivery zones.
Is the system customizable to our specific workflow?
Absolutely—it's not a plug-and-play template. We start by mapping your exact processes, such as how you qualify leads for grocery or retail deliveries versus B2B freight. The AI is coded to fit seamlessly, integrating with tools like your dispatch software or CRM (e.g., Salesforce or HubSpot). For instance, it can pull real-time data on your fleet's idle times to suggest outreach timing. This tailored approach ensures no disruption to your daily ops, and we iterate based on feedback. Over 90% of our logistics clients see full ROI within 90 days, with custom features like automated bid responses for RFPs.
How secure is the data used in outreach automation?
Security is paramount in logistics, where you're dealing with sensitive route and client info. We build with enterprise-grade encryption, compliant with GDPR, CCPA, and DOT regulations. Data stays within your controlled environment—no cloud dependencies unless you specify. Our systems use secure APIs for integrations, preventing breaches that could expose shipment details. We've audited similar setups for compliance in voice agents, ensuring all outreach avoids restricted info. Clients in regulated spaces, like those handling hazmat, appreciate our zero-incident track record, giving you peace of mind while scaling sales without risk.
What ROI can last-mile companies realistically achieve?
ROI varies, but our track record shows 4-6x returns in the first year for last-mile firms. Consider: if your team closes one extra $100K contract quarterly via better leads, that's $400K revenue uplift. Subtract our one-time build cost (typically $20K-$50K for SMBs) and ongoing tweaks, and you're netting substantial gains. We factor in savings like reduced tool subscriptions—often $10K+ annually—and time efficiencies equating to $30K in labor costs. A recent client, a regional delivery service, hit 5:1 ROI by month six, expanding routes by 25% through targeted e-commerce outreach. We provide custom calculators during consultation to project your specifics.
Can this integrate with our existing logistics software?
Yes, we specialize in deep integrations with popular TMS like Descartes or Oracle Transportation Management, plus CRMs and accounting tools. Our approach creates a 'single source of truth' by syncing prospect data with your operational metrics—e.g., linking a lead's volume needs to your available capacity. No more siloed systems causing errors in pitch accuracy. For last-mile specifics, we handle APIs for real-time updates on delivery windows or fuel surcharges. Post-integration, 95% of clients report zero workflow disruptions, and we offer 30 days of support to fine-tune. This unified setup eliminates the 'subscription chaos' plaguing most logistics ops.
