Who it's for · Broker ops, billing coordinators, and broker AP
For Freight Brokers
Broker desks live in email PDFs: carrier invoices, rate cons, PODs, and lumper receipts that never look the same twice. Jorora is the pre-pay gate for that packet — match the bill to the rate confirmation, hold unauthorized accessorials, and hand a defendable Approve / Needs Review / Reject before cash leaves.
Why
Why brokers run a pre-pay gate
Rate con is the contract
Spot FTL pay authority lives on the rate confirmation, not the carrier PDF total. Matching before remittance is how you keep margin.
Accessorials need a paper trail
Detention, lumper, layover, and liftgate only clear when the charge was authorized and the evidence exists. Rules — not a chat summary — make that hold stick.
Duplicates slip through busy queues
The same PRO or invoice file comes back unpaid. A hash + invoice/PRO gate stops the second pay without another 12 minutes in Excel.
No TMS rip-and-replace
Upload the packet or forward it from the inbox. You keep dispatching and paying in the systems you already use.
How to
How brokers validate an FTL packet
The workflow stays inside how the desk already works: PDFs in, a payment decision out.
Step 1
Collect the packet
Carrier invoice + rate confirmation. Add POD, BOL, or lumper when the line item needs proof.
Step 2
Upload or email-forward
Drop files in the app, or forward the thread to your organization intake address. Same rules, same credits.
Step 3
Review the decision
Deterministic pay rules return Approve, Needs Review, or Reject with reasons you can send to the carrier.
Step 4
Dispute or hand off to AP
Rejected lines get a dispute draft. Approved bills copy out as pay-ready fields or CSV — no retyping the PDF.
Workflow
Fits the broker inbox, not a six-month FAP RFP
Jorora sits before payment. It does not replace your TMS, factoring, or accounting stack. Brokers use it when the job is “do not pay this FTL bill until invoice, rate con, and evidence agree.” That is a different buyer motion than enterprise freight audit & payment outsourcing.
