EBE Technologies expands AI and automation across trucking operations

TL;DR: EBE Technologies is expanding AI and automation across trucking operations, helping carriers reduce manual work, improve fleet safety, streamline driver recruiting and gain greater freight visibility. With proven results including a 97% reduction in manual keystrokes, more than 300% average customer ROI and shipment evidence validation in under 60 seconds, EBE is delivering measurable operational improvements. Its solutions integrate with existing transportation systems, allowing carriers to increase efficiency and scale operations without replacing their current technology investments. 

What’s new at EBE

A lot has been happening behind the scenes at EBE Technologies, and we’re excited to share some of our latest developments. 

Over the past several months, we’ve continued expanding the use of AI and automation across trucking operations, with measurable results. These advancements are helping carriers reduce manual keystrokes by up to 97%, validate shipment evidence in under 60 seconds, and give safety and recruiting teams faster access to critical information through AI-powered assistants. 

Our latest developments span BeyondAI™, Adaptive Capture™, freight visibility, CORE Fleet Safety, and our Applicant Tracking System (ATS). While each addresses a different operational challenge, they share a common goal: reducing manual work, improving efficiency, and providing greater visibility across transportation operations. 

A key part of this approach is working with the systems carriers already rely on. Through integrations with transportation management systems (TMS), electronic logging devices (ELD), and telematics platforms, EBE helps organizations expand automation and maximize the value of their existing technology investments. 

Here’s a closer look at what EBE has been up to

Adaptive Capture™ uses AI to validate shipment evidence before departure 

Adaptive Capture™ uses AI to evaluate driver-captured photographs and documents against shipment-specific requirements, helping carriers verify that critical work has been completed correctly before drivers leave the pickup or delivery location. 

Rather than treating images as isolated files, Adaptive Capture™ evaluates evidence in the context of the shipment, considering commodity, equipment, customer instructions and operational requirements. The solution can validate:

  • Cargo condition and load securement 
  • Tarping and trailer seals 
  • Equipment condition and inspections 
  • Proof of delivery (POD) 
  • Other customer-specific requirements
Adaptive Capture three-step process: capture, AI validation and deliver

Drivers receive confirmation in under 60 seconds, allowing them to correct missing or incomplete evidence while still onsite. Validated, time-stamped images are automatically connected to the shipment, creating a verifiable operational record that supports claims prevention, compliance, customer service and freight invoicing while reducing manual evidence review by more than 90%. 

Already deployed in live transportation operations, including Hogan Transportation, Adaptive Capture™ extends AI beyond document recognition into physical shipment execution. By validating evidence before departure, carriers can address potential issues before they result in freight claims, service failures or invoicing delays. 

BeyondAI™ uses AI to automate freight invoicing and transportation workflows

BeyondAI™ is EBE’s AI-powered Digital Workforce for automating repetitive transportation processes, including data capture, validation, freight invoicing and exception handling. It combines Intelligent OCR Capture, Advanced AI and work-by-exception processing to automate tasks across fuel, LTL, final mile and standard transportation operations, including collecting information, validating transactions, entering data and managing exceptions.  

Rather than requiring employees to manually process every transaction, BeyondAI™ can process information, apply business rules and direct exceptions to employees for review. BeyondAI™ has reduced manual keystrokes by as much as 97% and manual data entry by 95%, with EBE reporting average customer ROI exceeding 300%.  

BeyondAI™ also supports existing imaging environments, allowing transportation companies to use EBE’s imaging system or continue with platforms they already use. This allows carriers to incorporate BeyondAI™ into their existing environment without changing how imaging is managed.  

EBE’s BeyondAI™ is actively expanding its web portal capabilities that support automated processes and give users additional ways to interact with information and transactions. Freight invoicing is one example, where processes that previously required four hours or more can now be completed in about a minute.

Real-time freight tracking improves shipment visibility and customer service

EBE’s freight visibility solutions help carriers improve customer service, reduce administrative work and maintain greater control over shipment activity. By connecting tracking information, delivery documentation and operational workflows, carriers can give shippers greater visibility while reducing routine status inquiries. 

Through EBE’s freight visibility portal, shippers can access near real-time shipment locations, delivery status, estimated arrival times and supporting documentation. Interactive maps provide a visual view of shipment progress, while advanced tracking capabilities allow users to locate freight using BOL numbers, purchase orders, pickup dates and other shipment identifiers. Online quote requests and shipment submissions further simplify customer interactions. 

For carriers, dispatch and customer service dashboards consolidate shipment activity, driver assignments, delivery status and documents in one environment. Teams can identify delays, monitor deliveries and retrieve invoices or proof of delivery without searching across multiple systems. 

SHIPS freight tracking dashboard with shipment map

EBE’s SHIPS Outsourced Freight Tracking extends visibility to independent contractors and outsourced capacity. Integrated with the carrier’s TMS, the solution supports near real-time tracking, electronic proof-of-delivery capture and automated document distribution. Its Invoice Assistant simplifies contractor billing by prepopulating shipment details and allowing drivers to submit invoices with supporting documents. 

Together, these capabilities help carriers reduce manual work, improve service responsiveness and manage growing shipment volumes without adding unnecessary administrative demands. 

CORE Fleet Safety uses AI to improve fleet safety and DOT compliance

EBE’s CORE Safety AI assistant helps transportation safety and compliance teams find answers within the safety, compliance and transportation data already contained in their systems.

Instead of searching through multiple records to understand why something failed or requires attention, users can ask the assistant a question and receive a response based on the available data.

A safety manager could ask:

  • Why did a driver fail an MVR review?
  • Is a required DOT document missing?
  • What caused a compliance item to require attention?
  • Which drivers have the lowest safety scores?

The AI assistant can analyze information within CORE Fleet Safety and connected systems, including telematics, video safety and compliance data, to provide relevant responses. This gives safety teams a more efficient way to understand issues, identify trends and determine where additional attention may be needed without manually reviewing individual records across multiple platforms.

AI-enabled Applicant Tracking helps carriers improve driver recruiting

EBE’s ATS AI assistant helps recruiting teams work with applicant information and recruiting activity more efficiently within their applicant tracking system. The AI assistant for ATS is already developed and in production, with organizations operating fleets ranging from 150 to 5,700 using the capability.

Recruiters can ask questions about applicants and recruiting activity and receive responses based on the information available in ATS. The system can also help identify hot leads versus cold leads, giving recruiting teams a clearer way to prioritize follow-up based on the information already captured in the applicant tracking process.

The AI operates within EBE’s ATS and does not participate in applicant lead sharing. Its role is to help organizations work with the recruiting information already contained within their systems and prioritize recruiting activity more efficiently.

Continued development across EBE’s transportation solutions

EBE’s continued development reflects its focus on addressing practical challenges across financial operations, safety and compliance, recruiting, shipment execution and freight visibility.

Transportation companies are under constant pressure to do more with the people and systems they already have. That’s what makes these developments so important.

We’re applying AI and automation to real operational challenges, whether that’s reducing hours of manual processing, helping drivers prevent costly mistakes, or giving teams immediate access to the information they need.

The value is in how those capabilities improve daily tasks and deliver measurable results for EBE’s customers.
