Freight intelligence in broker AP usually means knowing whether a carrier bill should be paid before cash leaves: rate-con match, accessorial authorization, detention evidence, duplicate gates. It is narrower than BI on lane spend — and more urgent than post-pay recovery reports.
Pre-pay freight audit software is one freight intelligence layer: extract PDF packets, apply rules, return Approve / Needs Review / Reject with reasons. Detention Check adds point intelligence on POD timestamps. Together they connect document validation to payment control without replacing a TMS.
