Pain Points (Public)

Refrigerated freight brokerages lose substantial dispatcher time manually managing back-and-forth Outlook appointment emails with warehouses, repeatedly transcribing dock times and load references into specialized platforms like Tai TMS while risking scheduling conflicts.

Suggested Approach (Public)

Implement an automated workflow connecting Microsoft 365 and Tai TMS via Zapier and LLM email parsing, automatically extracting appointment proposals and populating dispatch schedules while preserving human approval steps for final routing control.

Development brief PRO

Worth building?
Needs validation first
How to position

What to build first
  1. Build a Microsoft Graph / Outlook email webhook listener to ingest incoming appointment emails and parse warehouse load IDs, dock numbers, and requested delivery times.
