How to automate vehicle indent requests with your AI

Connect Pando to your AI client once. After that, you just tell your agent what you need moved, and it handles the Pando entries for you.

Short answer

How can I automate vehicle indents using AI?

Your AI uses Pando tools to find your specific locations and available vehicles, then submits the request directly. You skip the TMS interface entirely by just describing the shipment in chat.

The outcomes

Where your requests land

The AI handles the data entry and lookup tasks.

AUTOMATION

Direct request submission

The AI uses the create_indent tool to push your transport needs into Pando. You get a confirmed request without clicking through menus.

ACCURACY

Verified data lookup

Your agent pulls real-time data from your registered locations and vehicle lists. This ensures the indent matches your actual fleet and site setup.

EFFICIENCY

Zero manual navigation

You stop jumping between spreadsheets and TMS screens. The AI does the heavy lifting of matching locations to vehicles.

CONTROL

Human oversight

The AI prepares the data, but you decide when to trigger the final submission. You stay in the loop for every request sent.

The workflow

What your AI does when a request arrives.

The AI acts as the bridge between your chat interface and the Pando TMS.

  1. Identify the site

    The agent looks up your specific pickup or delivery points to ensure the address is correct.

    list_locations

  2. Check availability

    It scans your registered fleet to find the right type of vehicle for the job.

    list_vehicles

  3. Submit the indent

    Once the details are set, the agent pushes the transport request into the system.

    create_indent

  4. Confirm details

    The agent reports back that the request was successful or flags any missing info.

    create_indent

FAQ

How the Pando connector behaves

  • 01

    Can the AI delete existing indents in Pando?

    No. The current tools only allow for listing data and creating new indents.

  • 02

    Does the AI automatically send requests without my permission?

    No. You control the conversation, and the AI only executes the create_indent tool when you instruct it to do so.

  • 03

    Can I use this to update an indent I already made?

    No. The tools are limited to creating new requests and retrieving existing location or vehicle data.

  • 04

    How does the AI know which vehicles to use?

    It uses the list_vehicles tool to see what is available in your Pando account before suggesting a request.

  • 05

    Can the AI change my location settings?

    No. The AI can only read your locations using list_locations; it cannot add or edit them.
