Automated Shipment Verification

Prevent mis-shipments and wrong loads before trucks leave the dock

Industry studies show that nearly $40 billion in global losses occur each year stemming from incorrect loads, re-picks, chargebacks, expedited freight, and lost sales. Despite manual checks and scanning processes, 5-10% of loads contain errors: Wrong pallets loaded onto wrong trucks, Products left behind at the dock, Mixed loads that should go to different destinations, Temperature-sensitive goods sitting too long outside climate control.

Wiliot provides automated mis-shipment detection using battery-free IoT Pixels and minimal lowest cost infrastructure at dock doors.

The solution application automatically:

  • Identifies incorrect loads within minutes, enabling corrective action

  • Generates automated bill of lading - no manual scanning required

  • Identifies which pallets are staged at each dock door area

  • Tracks dwell time to prevent temperature excursions

  • Confirms successful load before truck departure.

Up to 90% reduction in mis-shipments - catching errors before trucks leave

$5M-$30M annual savings across enterprise operations (reduced labor, fewer chargebacks, less expedited shipping)

99%+ load accuracy - consistent verification across all dock doors

60-90 days to measurable value - rapid deployment and ROI

5-10x lower infrastructure cost vs. traditional RFID dock door systems
