Automated Uber Freight Exception Alerts

Every hour, WebRun opens Uber Freight, checks active loads for delays or exceptions, logs each flagged shipment to a Trello board with the carrier and load details, and pings your logistics team on WhatsApp so the right person can act fast.

In short

How do I get alerted when an Uber Freight shipment is delayed?

WebRun checks your Uber Freight loads every hour for delays and exceptions, logs each flagged shipment to a Trello board with the carrier and load details, and pings your logistics team on WhatsApp when a load needs urgent attention, so problem shipments get noticed before they become missed deliveries.

  • Delayed loads get flagged within the hour, not at day's end
  • Every exception is logged to a shared Trello board automatically
  • Only urgent loads interrupt the team on WhatsApp

Questions, answered

Will it contact the carrier directly?

No. WebRun only logs exceptions to Trello and pings your own team on WhatsApp. It never messages a carrier or customer on its own.

How does it decide what counts as urgent?

It reads the load's status and delay reason in Uber Freight, so only loads marked at risk or exception trigger a WhatsApp ping. Everything else is logged to Trello only.

What if a load's status changes back to on time?

It reads the live load status in Uber Freight each hour, so a load that recovers is updated on the Trello card automatically.

Put this on autopilot.
