POD software for transporters: from driver photo to freight bill

LR Manager by AGI Technologies is POD software that collects proof of delivery as a photo from the driver’s phone and reads the unload date, packages received and remarks for you. It is built for transporters and brokers who cannot bill a party or settle a truck until the POD arrives.

The problem

What a late or lost POD costs

A POD is one sheet of paper that holds up two payments: yours from the party, and the truck’s from you. The amounts below are examples.

The original POD lost on the way back

Example: The driver loses the signed POD for a ₹54,000 load to Guwahati. The party will not pay until a copy is arranged, and that takes three weeks.

The driver photographs the signed POD at unloading and uploads it from the tracking link screen, so a copy is on file the same day.

A shortage written down but never deducted

Example: The consignee writes “3 bags short” on the POD. Nobody reads the remark, the owner is paid in full, and the party cuts ₹2,400 from your bill.

The AI reader picks up packages received and remarks like “2 bags short”, and the shortage deduction is worked out from your settings.

Late POD with no deduction applied

Example: Your terms say ₹250 a day for a late POD. One comes six days late, and the ₹1,500 deduction is forgotten at settlement.

Late-POD deductions are worked out from your settings without manual maths, and shown with the reason.

Nobody knows which PODs are pending

Example: At month-end, 18 PODs covering ₹4.2 lakh of freight are missing, and the munshi calls drivers one by one to find them.

The POD pending report lists every LR still waiting for its POD.

POD software questions

Does the driver need to install an e-POD app?

No. The driver opens a link sent on WhatsApp and uploads the POD photo from that screen. It works on hired market trucks, where you cannot ask a driver to install anything.

What does the AI read from the POD?

The unload date, the packages received and remarks written by the consignee, such as “2 bags short”. You check the result before it is saved.

Should I still collect the original POD?

Yes, if your parties ask for it. The photo means you can settle the truck and chase the party’s payment without waiting for the paper to travel back.

Is POD software useful if I only run my own trucks?

Yes. Own-truck trips still need a POD before you bill the party, and shortage remarks still need to be caught. The deduction side matters most for market trucks.

How does POD connect to the freight bill?

Once the POD is in, the LR can go on the party’s freight bill with their other delivered LRs, along with any charges marked “bill party”. The POD pending report shows which LRs are holding up a bill.
