Building a Virtual Logistics Network: How the Alice IOT Platform Works
At Alice IOT, we’ve reimagined parcel transit by creating a platform that doesn’t own planes, trucks, or warehouses but still delivers unparalleled efficiency. How? By leveraging data and creating a virtual network of the best-in-class transit partners.
A Transit Party Agnostic Platform
The Alice IOT platform is what we call “transit party agnostic.” This means that, unlike traditional logistics systems tied to specific carriers or transport methods, our platform is flexible. We don’t own any physical assets. Instead, we carry the data that guides a parcel’s journey from start to finish.
This data-centric approach allows us to build a virtual network of transit parties - a dynamic collection of partners who excel at different stages of the logistics process. From collection vehicles and handling nodes to export brokers, airlines, and final-mile delivery vehicles, we create an interconnected web of reliable service providers.
“What we carry is the data that manages the transit of a parcel from beginning to end.”
How It Works
Our platform integrates a wide range of logistics partners, allowing parcels to move seamlessly through the most efficient routes. Here’s how it works:
Data Ingestion: We collect data about each parcel - size, origin, destination, transit speed requirements, and more.
Partner Selection: The platform dynamically chooses the most suitable transit parties for each leg of the journey, whether it’s collection, export, transit, or delivery.
Real-Time Routing: Based on real-time conditions and capacity, the platform selects the optimal route.
Seamless Handoffs: With full visibility down the transit chain, we ensure that each handoff between partners is smooth and transparent.
How Does This Benefit Your Business?
Enhance Efficiency: Our platform picks the best route, reducing transit time and cost.
Increase Flexibility: Use any carrier or partner—no need to commit to a single provider.
Gain Visibility: Monitor your parcels in real-time at every stage.
Boost Reliability: Count on the best-in-class partners for each step of the journey.
By combining data-driven decision-making with a flexible network of transit experts, Alice IOT streamlines the entire parcel journey.
