The Pain

Your TMS Tracks Loads.
It Doesn't Track Money.

Every 3PL runs into the same wall. Your TMS handles dispatch and routing, but when it comes to reconciling what carriers actually charged against what your contracts say, your team is back in spreadsheets.

Multi-Carrier Rate Chaos

Every carrier has a different rate structure, different accessorial codes, and a different invoice format. Your team manually compares each one against contracts that live in a shared drive nobody updated.

Accessorial Black Hole

Detention, fuel surcharges, liftgate fees, reclassification charges. They show up on carrier invoices weeks after delivery. Half of them are wrong. Your team doesn't have time to catch them all.

Cross-Border Complexity

US-Mexico and US-Canada freight adds customs brokerage, currency conversion, ACI/ACE compliance documentation, and CTPAT requirements. Every cross-border shipment multiplies invoicing complexity by 3x.

POD Matching is Manual Labor

Proof of delivery documents arrive as scans, photos, email attachments, and portal downloads. Matching PODs to invoices and flagging discrepancies is where your billing team spends most of their week.

One Person Knows the System

Your billing process runs on tribal knowledge. One bookkeeper or controller who knows which carriers need manual overrides, which accounts get special rates, and where the exceptions live. When they're out, billing stops.

Shipment-to-Invoice Takes Weeks

From delivery confirmation to invoice sent, the average 3PL takes 7-14 days. Every day of delay is a day of float you're financing and a day closer to a dispute.

How Rigby Solves It

We Learn Your Carrier Contracts.
Then We Automate Them.

Ingest and Match

Rigby's AI agent reads incoming carrier invoices in any format (EDI, PDF, email, CSV), extracts line items, and matches them against your contracted rates automatically.

Flag and Resolve

Discrepancies, duplicate charges, and unbilled accessorials get flagged in real time. Your team reviews exceptions instead of processing every invoice manually.

Compound and Scale

Every resolved invoice makes the system smarter. Carrier-specific patterns, seasonal rate adjustments, and exception rules compound over time. The 50th invoice is faster than the 5th.

Proof of Work

Live Deployment in Cross-Border 3PL

Rigby is currently deployed with a 300+ truck, 9-terminal 3PL operating US-Mexico cross-border freight routes across Salt Lake City, Dallas, Phoenix, Laredo, and San Diego. Phase 2 delivery in progress.
