00:00 In this week’s CCJ Tech Shorts, we’ll dive into AI for tolling, new cargo theft prevention technology, AI-powered yard operations and more.
00:21 Wabash has debuted a new solution that pairs a digitally connected cargo door and intelligent locking system with the TrailerHawk.AI technology platform to link physical access control with real-time visibility and actionable assurance events to help prevent cargo theft.
The solution aims to help shippers, carriers and 3PLs shift from passive monitoring to active assurance by providing verified access, exception alerts and an end-to-end record of custody. It provides multiple secure points of contact at the cargo door, enabling encrypted communication, in-transit monitoring and proactive intervention.
The solution is also designed to combat strategic or orchestrated cargo theft, where legitimate drivers are unknowingly used in fraud schemes due to broken information chains. By validating driver identity and carrier relationships and connecting those checks to physical access at the cargo door, customers can reduce uncertainty at handoffs and strengthen in-transit control.
01:19 Terminal Industries, an AI-native, computer vision–powered, full-stack yard platform, has rolled out a new AI blueprint for yard operations.
Terminal’s Yard Operating System continuously ingests real-time signals from cameras, sensors, telematics and enterprise platforms, translates those signals into operational context, applies reasoning and policy, and executes decisions through durable workflows across gates, yards and docks. This architecture allows Terminal to autonomously coordinate appointments, manage capacity, resolve exceptions, and orchestrate yard activity at operational speed without relying on manual intervention.
Terminal also released its new Appointment Module, designed to eliminate the manual chaos of phone calls, emails and spreadsheets that cripple logistics sites. The new module provides a 24/7 self-service portal that gives carriers and site managers the ability to coordinate in real-time.
02:14 AI-powered rate management and freight quoting platform Tabi Connect has launched its new AI Dynamic Business Rules Engine that enables freight brokers to build, manage and adjust complex pricing logic without code. This allows teams to respond instantly to market changes while maintaining full auditability and control.
The engine is powered by Tabi Connect’s embedded AI Assistant, which translates plain-English instructions into structured business logic.
It allows users to stack multiple parameters, including lane, customer, equipment type, accessorials, or market conditions, into flexible, non-destructive rules. Changes can be implemented across workflows without overwriting existing logic, reducing risk while increasing speed and consistency.
03:00 Weigh station bypass and toll payment platform PrePass has released a new machine-learning capability built into the PrePass INFORM Tolling analytics platform, a toll verification and cost optimization solution that helps fleets manage toll spend and validate charges.
The new AI Toll Insights feature aims to deliver richer, actionable intelligence to help carriers detect device mismatches, misuse and inefficiencies that can lead to unnecessary toll costs.
Using proprietary machine-learning models designed specifically for toll data, AI Toll Insights correlates vehicle movement, toll transactions, device details and agency pricing rules; detects patterns and anomalies that indicate mismatches or misuse; and turns raw data into recommendations that fleets can act on to control costs.
The feature shifts toll management from reactive to actionable, resulting in significant time savings, reduced manual review and administrative workload, lower overpayment, fewer disputes and less downstream administrative costs.
