Automated C.H. Robinson Shipment Delay Alerts

Every morning, WebRun opens C.H. Robinson, checks every in-transit shipment's current ETA against its originally scheduled delivery date, saves the full delay exception report to Google Drive, and texts you on Twilio for any shipment delayed more than a day so you can get ahead of a customer's call instead of reacting to it.

In short

How do I get alerted when a C.H. Robinson shipment falls behind schedule?

WebRun checks C.H. Robinson every morning for every in-transit shipment's current ETA against its original schedule, saves the full delay exception report to Google Drive, and texts you on Twilio for any shipment now delayed more than a day. That gets a delay in front of you before a customer calls asking where their freight is.

  • Delayed shipments are flagged before the customer asks
  • A full exception report is archived automatically every day
  • Critically late loads trigger a same day text

Built for logistics coordinators · supply chain managers · freight brokers · shipping operations teams

Questions, answered

Will it reroute the load or contact the carrier for me?

No. WebRun only reads shipment status from C.H. Robinson and reports delays. Rerouting a load or contacting the carrier stays a decision your team makes.

Does it notify my customer about the delay?

No. It only alerts you internally by text and saved report. Whether and how to tell the customer stays your call.

What counts as critically delayed?

Any shipment now running more than a day behind its originally scheduled delivery date. Smaller slips still show up in the saved report without triggering a text.

Put this on autopilot.
