This offering provides an advantage to the largest segment of the motor carrier market, carriers with 1-20 trucks, by giving them direct control of their insurance costs including the opportunity to save up to 30% each month with safe driving”, said Brion St Amour, COO, CarrierHQ. “This launch is particularly important to us as it brings our rapidly growing program to AscendTMS’s industry leading platform.”

Tim Higham, CEO of AscendTMS, said; “An overwhelming request we get again and again from our fleet users is the ability to quickly quote and bind competitively priced liability, physical damage and cargo insurance coverage. They want the ability to quote and bind quickly, while also getting credit for safe driving. Aon and CarrierHQ offers the only insurance program that offers fleets the ability to start saving up to 30% each month on their policy, as long as they are driving safely. AscendTMS is the only TMS software to offer this program.

Australian supermarket chain rolls out AI-powered grocery carts

Grocery shoppers in Australia will soon be able to zip in and out of the store in record time, bypassing the lines for cashiers or self-checkout kiosks altogether. They can just walk in, make their selections, and walk out with their bags in hand.

The secret to this express shopping experience is the “Caper Cart,” an AI (artificial intelligence)-powered smart trolley from San Francisco-based Instacart. In its first deployment in the Asia Pacific (APAC) region, the system is being tested by Coles Supermarkets, a food and beverage retailer with more than 1,800 grocery and liquor stores throughout the country.
