Freight Automation Software for Complex Distribution Networks

Freight Automation for B2B Distribution

Automate transportation work across every location, carrier, and team.

Automate transportation work across every location, carrier, and team.

How Junction Helps

One operating layer. Every freight decision governed by your rules.

Junction connects your existing systems and automatically applies your cost rules, SLAs, and carrier requirements to every decision.

New Carrier Invoice Cost rules engine Match to shipment quote, accessorials and terms ! Overcharge detected Invalid accessorial ✓ Claim initiated Send to carrier

Margin Leakage

Protect gross margin on every shipment.

Customer pricing rules and carrier terms applied to every shipment in real time. Undercharges, billing errors, and unrecovered freight costs caught before they erode margin.

Customer Experience

Improve customer experience where freight usually breaks it.

Consistent execution across locations, warehouses, and customer accounts. Fewer missed promises, fewer status calls, faster answers, and more reliable deliveries.

Network Complexity

Control freight across branches, warehouses, and 3PLs.

HQ sets the rules, sees the exceptions, and governs the process. Each location gets the tools to quote, ship, capture costs, and execute correctly without adding headcount.

Frequently Asked Questions

What teams ask before they switch

What does Junction do?

Junction automates the freight work your team currently does by hand. It runs freight through automated workflows for tasks like track and trace, shipment updates, exception alerts, rate checks, invoice audit, and reporting. Your team stays in control through Junction's rating engine, carrier rules, approval workflows, and custom workflows built around your operation.

Who is Junction built for?

B2B manufacturers and distributors whose freight operation has outgrown manual work. We work with companies managing freight across multiple locations, warehouses, 3PLs, and carriers, where freight is a core part of daily operations, not an occasional task.

Is Junction a TMS?

No. A TMS is where transportation work gets recorded and managed. Junction goes further and actually executes freight work through agents, rules, and automation. It can run on top of your existing TMS to automate execution and manage exceptions, or replace the need for one entirely with rating, booking, tracking, invoice audit, and reporting built in.

Does Junction replace our ERP or transportation team?

No. Junction works alongside both. Connecting to your ERP lets Junction apply your freight rules directly inside your existing business systems. And instead of replacing your transportation team, it takes repeatable tasks off their plate so they can focus on exceptions, carrier relationships, and cost control.

What parts of freight management can Junction automate?

Most repeatable freight tasks, including: Rate checks and carrier selection Booking and dispatch Track and trace Shipment updates and notifications Exception alerts Invoice audit and claims Reporting and dashboards Carrier performance tracking OTIF penalties, chargebacks, and deductions Approval and escalation workflows Custom rules and workflows specific to your operation

How do carriers like working with Junction?

Carriers get faster, more accurate shipment and performance data, since Junction integrates with them directly wherever possible. That means fewer manual follow-ups and better visibility into performance for both sides.

Can Junction improve carrier selection, bidding, or network design?

Yes. During onboarding, we review your carrier mix, routing rules, lane performance, and cost trends, and can support a carrier RFP or routing guide redesign. The goal is to get your network right before Junction runs it at scale.

What is Shared Work with Junction?

Shared Work is part of our approach to advancing technology in distribution by building with operators, not pitching at them. It means we build with you. Shared Work is how we use our AI, automation, and distribution expertise to help teams turn practical operational problems into useful tools, better processes, and clearer paths forward.
