    Does the AI notify me automatically when a package arrives?

    No. The AI only provides updates when you ask it to check the status or when you prompt it for a report.

  • 03

    Can it track packages from any carrier?

    Yes, it uses the Ship24 network to access data from a wide range of global carriers.

  • 04

    What happens if the tracking number is invalid?

    The agent will report that it cannot find any data for that specific number.

  • 05
