FreightPOP is building artificial intelligence (AI) directly into its enterprise-grade Transportation Management System (TMS) to deliver both real-time "copilot" assistance and background "agentic" automation. These new capabilities will help shipping teams work faster, more accurately, and with less manual effort, without replacing staff. CEO Kurt Johnson emphasizes that, like FreightPOP's own team, customers' logistics teams can use AI to operate at a level far beyond what would be possible without it. The AI features will roll out in phases, with early access available later this year.
LAKE FOREST, Calif., Sept. 18, 2025 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- FreightPOP, a leading provider of transportation management solutions, announced today that it is transforming into FreightPOP AI — the first AI TMS. By embedding artificial intelligence into the foundation of its platform, FreightPOP AI introduces powerful automation and decision-support capabilities that will redefine how shipping operations are managed.
The upcoming release introduces two complementary capabilities:
- Copilot-Style Assistance – Real-time recommendations, insights, and proactive guidance that help users make faster, smarter shipping decisions.
- Agentic Automation – Intelligent, behind-the-scenes execution of tasks and workflow optimization with minimal manual intervention.
FreightPOP AI is designed to accelerate adoption and impact across enterprises. Intuitive workflows feel natural from day one, allowing teams to achieve measurable value quickly — with ROI already validated across FreightPOP's customer base.
"These AI advancements aren't about replacing logistics teams," said Kurt Johnson, CEO of FreightPOP. "They're about supercharging our customers' teams with the ability to accomplish more, with greater accuracy and speed, and far less manual effort. It's so intuitive that it doesn't feel like learning new software; it feels like common sense."
With AI built into its foundation, FreightPOP AI acts as both an active advisor and an autonomous operations engine. The result is faster processes, greater shipment accuracy, and operational intelligence that adapts to each customer's business. Customers experience reduced costs, eliminated errors, and accelerated ROI without the heavy training requirements typical of enterprise technology.
For organizations moving product at scale, FreightPOP AI ensures shipments move faster, with fewer errors, and with greater warehouse efficiency. By simplifying execution and optimizing critical workflows — from order fulfillment to carrier management — it empowers enterprises to ship with confidence and precision.
In support of these AI-first initiatives, FreightPOP is also excited to announce the appointment of Kevin Page as Chief Technology Officer. Kevin is a seasoned technology leader with more than 20 years of experience driving innovation at large B2B software companies including Insurity, Solera/DealerSocket, and Allegion.
He has a proven track record of scaling global technology organizations, establishing offshore development centers, and aligning product strategy with measurable business outcomes. By joining FreightPOP at this pivotal time, Kevin will guide the company's technology vision, accelerate development of AI-first capabilities, and ensure FreightPOP continues to deliver transformative value to mid-market and enterprise shippers.
The AI capabilities are currently in development and will roll out to customers in phases, with early access programs planned for later this year.
