How AI is used

Cedarai is a suite of transportation management tools for the rail and logistics sector. The platform is designed to support rail operations by using AI and real time data to track palletized and bulk freight.

The software supports various users, including railroads, intermodal operators, transloaders, and industrial parks. It offers specialized modules for revenue management, inventory, and field-level mobile solutions for yard workers.

Capabilities include supporting inbound traffic workflows, managing electronic data interchange (EDI) with connecting railroads, and utilizing existing yard cameras to detect equipment movement. This may help operations managers maintain a single source of truth for car locations and billing.

Buyers should confirm which specific module—such as ARMS for inventory or RADS for camera tracking—aligns with their infrastructure, as the system is modular.
