In this episode of Everything is Logistics, Blythe talks with Nick Boston, VP of Sales at GoodShip, about how shippers are using AI to better understand freight spend, carrier performance, and transportation procurement.

GoodShip helps shippers manage freight orchestration and procurement in one platform. Their AI assistant, Lainey, helps users ask questions about their transportation network, prepare for carrier meetings, plan scenarios, and surface insights without waiting on another spreadsheet pull.

They cover:

Why many large shippers still manage freight procurement with spreadsheets
How GoodShip brings transportation spend, service, contracts, and carrier data into one system
What Lainey does inside the GoodShip platform
How shippers use AI for insights, scenario planning, and meeting prep
Why carrier scorecards are still hard for many teams to manage
How brokers and carriers are starting to use GoodShip for RFP pricing
Why GoodShip includes unlimited use of Lainey in its annual subscription

This conversation is part of the CargoRex AI Use Cases in Logistics guide, featuring real examples of how logistics companies are using AI across freight, warehousing, procurement, visibility, and operations.
