AtomsAI / Dispatch and delivery agent

Every delivery confirmed. Delivered the first time.

Confirms delivery windows, answers “where's my order?”, warns customers about delays and rebooks missed drops. Fewer wasted trips, fewer calls, and dispatchers free to run the day.

Built for retailers with their own fleet, last-mile carriers and freight teams.

Why it matters

Every delivery depends on the customer being ready when the truck arrives.
Most customers only hear from you when something has already gone wrong.
So drivers wait at empty doors, and dispatchers spend the day on the phone.

No one home

A missed delivery means a second trip, a second driver and an unhappy customer.

“Where's my order?”

Customers call to ask, and dispatchers stop running the day to answer.

Delays found out too late

Customers learn a delivery is late when it doesn't arrive.

A failed delivery is paid for twice. One message the day before saves most.

Same deliveries. Fewer trips wasted. What 1,000 home deliveries look like, without and with a dispatch and delivery agent
Without an agent
1,000 deliveries booked
80 failed on the first attempt
300 “where's my order?” calls

What it does

Everything a great dispatch desk does. For every stop, all day.

Confirms every delivery window.

Asks every customer the day before, moves the slot if needed, and notes access or a safe place.

Example · the day before, every customer asked
S. Lee · sofa Moved to 2pm–4pm
R. Patel · bed frame Confirmed 10am–12pm
J. Kim · table Leave with the neighbour at no. 14

Answers “where's my order?”

Live from the route, on any channel.

Where's my fridge?
Your driver is 3 stops away. Expect them in about 25 minutes.
Live from the driver's route

Warns before it's late.

Spots a delay on the route and tells every affected customer, with a new time or a new day.

Example · 11:05am, route 4
Truck 4 delayed Road closure, about 40 minutes late
6 customers told New time sent before they noticed
1 rebooked Couldn't wait, moved to Thursday

Checks in with drivers.

Quick status calls, so ETAs stay right.

Check call · driver, route 12
Hi Marco, how's the Lee delivery going?
Unloading now. Leaving in 20.
ETA updated for the next 4 stops

Rebooks missed deliveries.

Calls straight away and puts the new slot on a route.

12:10pm No one home at J. Kim's
12:14pm Called, new slot picked
Thursday 2pm–4pm, added to route 9

Handles problems at the door.

Damage, wrong item or no access, sent to dispatch with what's needed to fix it.
