Short answer

How can I use my AI to place delivery orders?

Tell your agent where the package is going and what needs to be moved. It will check the shipping costs and then place the order for you. You get a direct line to logistics through your chat window.

The outcomes

What your agent handles

Your agent takes over the manual work of checking rates and submitting requests.

COSTING

Instant rate checks

The agent calculates shipping fees based on your specific delivery details. You see the cost before anything is finalized.

EXECUTION

Order placement

Once you approve the price, the agent submits the delivery request. The order goes live in the Dada Now system immediately.

LOGISTICS

Delivery coordination

Your agent acts as the middleman between your instructions and the courier. It handles the data entry for the shipment.

HUMAN

Final approval

The agent won't spend your money without permission. You stay in control of the final decision to book a delivery.

FAQ

How the delivery task behaves

  • 01

    Can the AI place an order without me seeing the price?

    No. The agent uses the fee tool to show you the cost first.

    No. The AI executes the order through the connected account, but you manage your payment methods in Dada Now.

  • 03

    No. This specific connector only supports creating new orders. You must handle modifications directly in the Dada Now interface.
