The Premium Last Free Day (LFD) Extraction Add-on uses OpenTrack AI Agents to automatically retrieve Last Free Day information that is traditionally difficult to obtain through automated tracking.
While OpenTrack already captures a large portion of LFD data through carrier integrations and shipment signals, some LFDs must still be retrieved manually from carrier portals or email communications. Premium LFD Extraction reduces this manual work by allowing AI agents to retrieve missing LFDs automatically.
With this add-on enabled, many customers increase their automated LFD coverage from roughly 65% to 85% or more, significantly reducing time spent chasing missing LFD information.
Why LFD Data Is Hard to Retrieve
Last Free Day information is one of the most operationally critical shipment data points, but it is also one of the most difficult to automate.
In many cases, teams must retrieve LFDs manually by:
Logging into carrier portals
Requesting information via email
Waiting for carrier responses
Searching through shipment documentation
This process is time-consuming and often interrupts operational workflows. Retrieving a single missing LFD can take several minutes and requires waiting for carrier systems or responses.
How Premium LFD Extraction Works
Premium LFD Extraction uses OpenTrack AI Agents to replicate the manual processes that operations teams currently perform to retrieve missing LFDs.
When an LFD is unavailable through standard automated tracking methods, AI agents can take additional steps to retrieve the information.
These actions may include:
Sending and responding to carrier emails
Accessing carrier webpages that traditional bots cannot retrieve data from
Interacting with systems that require manual data retrieval
Requesting information from customers or operational stakeholders when needed
By performing these tasks automatically, the system retrieves LFD information without requiring manual effort from operations teams.
Automation Coverage Improvements
Most customers currently receive LFD coverage through OpenTrack’s standard data sources for approximately 65% of shipments.
By enabling Premium LFD Extraction, automated coverage typically increases to around 85% or higher, significantly reducing the number of containers that require manual follow-up.
This allows teams to focus their attention only on true operational exceptions.
Benefits for Operations Teams
Premium LFD Extraction helps teams:
Reduce manual work retrieving Last Free Day information
Minimize time spent navigating carrier portals
Eliminate delays caused by waiting for carrier emails
Improve visibility into demurrage and detention deadlines
Focus attention on shipments that truly require intervention
By automating the most time-consuming parts of LFD retrieval, teams can monitor deadlines more efficiently and reduce operational friction.
