The data integration platform is designed to help companies tie together mission critical processes — from load tender to invoice. The tool is focused on functionality, easily partnering with EDI, API and file-based integrations. 

This blend of integrations in the same platform proves especially powerful in omnichannel use cases, according to Cleo Principal Solutions Architect Jacob Olson. The platform also allows all partner connections to be configured and controlled in a self-service manner.

Designed to facilitate a host of processes through a single platform, Cleo is dedicated to simplifying the future of integration.

OneRail

Bill Catania founded OneRail in response to a frustrating experience in which a home improvement store was unable to provide him same-day delivery for a refrigerator. This event convinced him that the final-mile delivery sector was broken and needed to be fixed.

OneRail is a delivery solution that connects shippers to couriers seamlessly, providing multimodal delivery and shipment management across all final-mile shipping modes. The delivery orchestration platform reduces fulfillment operation costs by 70% and increases in delivery speed by 35%.

Over 120 couriers make up its North American network of 4.5 million drivers, placing OneRail in virtually every market coast to coast.

Catania promotes the OneRail platform as a shipper-centric solution. The platform allows shippers to set up and configure their own branded messages to send to customers while a delivery is in transit. Shippers can also create a landing page where recipients can schedule, reschedule, cancel or track a delivery as well as rate their experience with the courier.

“Your business has the ability to completely control the customer experience,” Catania said. “The service is branded to the shipper; You own it. OneRail’s name isn’t mentioned anywhere.” 

This is achieved through OneRail’s connection of disparate courier networks, which allows even customers complete visibility of the delivery process from warehouse to doorstep. 

Exceptions such as late deliveries can also be effectively managed on OneRail’s platform. Its logistics management team monitors deliveries in real time and alerts customers and couriers when exceptions are detected.
