What it does
Uber Freight Insights AI is an analytics tool built into the Uber Freight platform. Shippers use it to ask questions about their freight network in plain English and get answers back right away. It builds KPI dashboards ranked by cost or service impact, so teams see what to fix first. The tool draws on more than 45 data sources and over 20 million delivered shipments, plus Uber Freight's own transportation management data, and runs on a logistics-focused AI model Uber Freight built itself, not a general chatbot. Uber Freight reports that Insights AI is used by about one in three Fortune 500 companies. Colgate-Palmolive, for example, built a dashboard around on-time performance and cost per mile.
Where it can help
This fits a shipper already using Uber Freight's transportation management tools or freight brokerage, and adds the most value when your team spends real time pulling reports from spreadsheets or several systems. A practical starting point is one dashboard, like carrier performance or cost per mile, for your top lanes. Uber Freight does not publish set prices for Insights AI, since it is usually bundled with a broader freight or TMS agreement, so treat any cost as part of that larger negotiation, not a stand-alone fee. The main risk is that answer quality depends on how much shipment data flows through Uber Freight in the first place; a company with a small or mostly manual freight operation may see less value from the AI layer.

Required controls
Security and safe use
Confirm encryption, how the vendor uses your data, customer data separation, how long data stays and how to delete it, activity records, sign-in and user setup, where data is handled, other companies that process data, past incidents, and what your team must manage.
Exit and rollback
Review before rollout: confirm how to export your data, revoke access, and return to your existing workflow. Assign an owner and test the rollback plan before expanding use.
Recommended next step
Do not approve a pilot yet. Verify the current product identity, package, availability, owner, pricing, and security evidence; then define one workflow, a baseline, and rollback criteria.
