AI Invoicing for LTL Carriers

Your Customer Declared Class 70. Your Driver Measured Class 125. Now What?

LTL billing breaks because of reclassification. Your customer declares one freight class. Your inspection reveals another. The rate difference can be 40% or more, and the dispute eats hours of your billing team's time. Rigby automates tariff-based billing, reclass reconciliation, and consolidated shipment invoicing.

The Pain

LTL Billing Wasn't Built for Simple.
You Know That.

LTL rates depend on weight, class, distance, density, origin, destination, and a tariff structure that updates regularly. Every consolidated shipment combines multiple customers, multiple classes, and multiple rate calculations into one truck. Billing all of that accurately is the hardest invoicing problem in trucking.

Reclassification Disputes

Customer ships as Class 70. Your inspection says Class 125. The rate jumps 40%. The customer disputes. Your billing team pulls the BOL, the inspection report, and the tariff. Three hours later, one invoice is resolved.

Tariff Management is a Full-Time Job

Your tariff rates change quarterly. Customer-specific discounts layer on top. Minimum charges, deficit weight rules, and FAK (freight all kinds) agreements add complexity. Keeping it all current and applied correctly is where billing errors start.

Consolidated Shipment Billing

One truck carries freight for 8 customers. Each has different rates, different classes, and different accessorial agreements. Splitting the truck-level costs into 8 accurate customer invoices is where the math gets complicated.

Weight and Dimension Discrepancies

Declared weight vs actual weight. Declared dimensions vs actual dimensions. Cubic capacity calculations. Density-based pricing. Every discrepancy between what was declared and what was measured creates a billing adjustment.

Accessorial Stacking

Liftgate, residential delivery, inside delivery, limited access, sort and segregate, appointment scheduling. LTL accessorials stack fast, and each one has a different charge per customer per tariff.

Claims and Adjustments Backlog

Reclassification adjustments, weight corrections, and billing disputes pile up. Each one requires manual review, documentation, and a corrected invoice. The backlog grows faster than your team can clear it.

How Rigby Solves It

We Apply Your Tariffs, Handle Reclass, and Bill Every Customer. Automatically.

Tariff-Based Rate Engine

Rigby applies your tariff structure automatically: base rates, customer discounts, FAK agreements, minimum charges, and deficit weight rules. When tariffs update, the rate engine updates with them.

Automated Reclassification Handling

When inspection data doesn't match declared class, Rigby calculates the rate difference, generates the adjustment, and documents the basis. Your billing team approves the adjustment instead of researching it.

Per-Customer Consolidated Invoicing

Multi-stop, multi-customer loads get split into individual customer invoices with the correct rate, class, weight, and accessorials applied per shipment. One truck, 8 invoices, zero manual calculation.
