nVision Recovers Money After It Leaves.Freehand Stops It Before It Does.
At hundreds of millions in freight spend, post-dispute recovery only recaptures a fraction of what pre-payment audit prevents. Freehand audits every invoice before payment, catching errors, duplicates, and uncontracted charges before a dollar leaves your account.

Outsourced audit meant limited visibility, slow cycles, and fully manual exceptions weeks chasing carriers over email. We needed same-day processing; we got weeks-long manual review.

Real outcomes from enterprises that have replaced BPO-led freight audit with Freehand's AI Teams.
Meet the Agents Working Your Freight Invoices 24/7
Freight payment spans GL coding, disbursement, accruals, and spend reporting, each step a manual handoff in traditional finance operations. Freehand deploys one AI Team with four specialized agents, each owning a distinct part of the payment lifecycle.
Invoice Audit Agent
Validates every invoice line against contracted rates across parcel, LTL, FTL, ocean, and air. Runs 3-way and 4-way matching. Flags discrepancies across 30+ error types in a single pass.
Dispute Management Agent
Files structured overcharge disputes directly with carriers for every confirmed discrepancy. Tracks resolution status, escalates aged disputes, and logs every carrier response against the original claim.
GL Coding Agent
Assigns cost centers, GL accounts, and business units using rules mapped to your chart of accounts. Complex cost splits across divisions, brands, and geographies handled at invoice time.
Spend Intelligence Agent
Classifies every audited invoice by mode, carrier, lane, cost center, and charge type. Delivers a finance-grade, queryable freight spend layer accessible at any point in the month.
Measurable Outcomes from Week One
Outcomes measured from live deployments across Fortune 500 freight audit and payment operations.
Every invoice line is audited against the contracted rate, parcel, LTL, FTL, ocean, and air, without a human reviewer in the loop.
Accessorial overcharges, fuel adjustment errors, and detention billing discrepancies are caught and disputed in the same audit cycle they occur.
GL coding and cost allocation run automatically at audit time. Finance closes the month on verified freight cost data, not estimates.
Dispute resolution runs without a human queue. The Dispute Management Agent files, tracks, and escalates. Carriers receive structured claims on a defined timeline.
Every recovered dollar is traceable invoice, contracted rate, billed amount, dispute outcome, and payment record in one place.
Freight spend data is classified by mode, carrier, lane, and cost center. Finance-grade and available at any point in the month.
