Descartes Rolls Out OpsForce AI Agents on Global Logistics Network, Citing Rapid Driver Uptake and Automation Gains

Descartes positions its GLN data as the foundation for customers’ expanding supply chain AI strategies.

Overview

  • Descartes introduced MacroPoint OpsForce, a suite of agentic AI tools embedded in its Global Logistics Network to automate freight visibility and exception workflows.
  • Company-reported results say 720,000-plus AI-driven outreaches connected more than 435,000 additional drivers to the network in a matter of months.
  • Reported customer outcomes include elimination of manual check calls in some cases, a 30% average rise in no-touch tracking, 1.5x team productivity gains, and 15% faster proof‑of‑delivery settlement.
  • The AI agents activate as needed to onboard drivers to the mobile app, restore stalled tracking, verify arrival and departure when geofence data is unclear, and collect missing delivery documents.
  • Descartes says the GLN links hundreds of thousands of carriers and millions of drivers for real-time visibility, with executives framing the agent-plus-network approach as improving accuracy and order-to-cash speed.
