In the world of supply chain and logistics, time is more than money—it’s margin, compliance, customer satisfaction, and team morale. Yet too many transportation and accounts payable teams still spend the majority of their workweek buried in manual invoice audits, back-and-forth emails, and spreadsheet gymnastics just to stay afloat.

But what if that changed?

What if your team didn’t have to be stuck in reactive mode—and instead had the tools, visibility, and automation to become a strategic force inside your organization?

This isn’t a hypothetical. It’s what Loop makes possible.

The shift your team deserves

Supply chain professionals spend 80% of their time responding to problems—and only 20% planning ahead. Whether it’s firefighting delays, chasing invoices, or resolving errors, strategic work too often takes a backseat.That imbalance isn’t a reflection on the people—it’s a failure of the systems supporting them.

Manual invoice approvals. Paper-based audits. Inconsistent carrier documentation. Legacy tools not built for modern logistics.

Loop flips that script by introducing AI-powered automation into transportation spend management. With document understanding, GL coding, and audit workflows handled by AI, your team can move from data processing to high-value decision-making.

Operational wins feedback-loop

Here’s how Loop makes that transition happen:

Auto-audits

Every invoice, bill of lading, and carrier contract is automatically scanned, compared, validated, and linked to the other documents in that shipment—no manual line-item checks required.

Exception management

With variance thresholds set based on your preferences, you and your team only review what matters most. If desired, Loop can automate the entire exception management process for you.

Self-serve analytics

Loop transforms raw transportation data into clean, normalized insights your team can actually use. No SQL required—just answers when you need them.

Continuous compliance

Loop enforces freight audit policies and contract terms automatically—so you don’t have to chase down errors or worry about under/overpaying.

Don’t just take it from us

Before Loop, Great Dane’s accounts payable and traffic teams were stuck in the same manual loop that slows down countless supply chain operations. Invoices were printed, spot-checked, and approved by hand. There was no central view of how carriers were performing, or whether Great Dane was being billed accurately.

Once they implemented Loop, that all changed.

“Loop has turned my team from processors to analysts,” said Jeff Toman, Financial Executive at Great Dane.

Today, 95% of Great Dane’s invoices are approved with zero human touch, and invoice issues have dropped by more than half. The AP team spends less time chasing documents and more time driving margin improvements and better decisions.

And the best part? All of this happened without a huge overhaul—Loop was live with minimal lift from their teams.

What would your team do with their time back?

When repetitive tasks are automated, people don’t become less important—they become more impactful.

“With Loop, we are now able to have our invoices audited and approved automatically—no human touch, enabling us to reinvest in growth and innovation.” – Jane Carvalhante, Loadsmart

They can:

  • Identify recurring accessorials and fix operational issues
  • Analyze spend trends across carriers and lanes
  • Collaborate with procurement and logistics to optimize contracts
  • Deliver better service across finance, ops, and the C-suite

That’s the real power of Loop—not just cost savings, but team empowerment.
