Shippers and couriers run last-mile and courier coordination on broken tooling with no clean way to handle exceptions and proof of delivery

Operators describe last-mile and courier coordination as fundamentally broken, handling pickups, exceptions, failed deliveries, and proof of delivery across mismatched carrier systems and manual workarounds. The long-running HN thread literally titled a plea to fix shipping and couriers collected over a hundred comments of operators detailing the same fragmented exception-handling pain that still persists. A focused ops tool that centralizes courier exception handling, captures structured proof of delivery, and routes failed-delivery resolution gives small shippers and regional couriers the coordination layer the big carriers never built for them.

Gap Assessment

UnderservedExisting solutions leave gaps

Large carrier platforms handle their own networks; independent regional couriers and small shippers lack an affordable cross-carrier exception and proof-of-delivery coordination layer.
