AI Workshop for Logistics and Supply Chain, One Day Onsite
Freight documents and customs papers get checked and transferred by hand. Customers keep asking for status instead of being informed automatically. Exceptions in the delivery process run on phone calls instead of a system. Route planning relies on outdated spreadsheets. An AI workshop, one day onsite, builds the automation for exactly these tasks live with your team. By evening there is a prototype that reads freight papers or informs customers proactively about delays, not a certificate. Need more afterward, you scale straight up into the multi-day Corporathon hackathon, plus the documented competence record under EU AI Act Article 4, mandatory since 2 February 2025.
- Real prototypes instead of slides
- Facilitated by AI practitioners
- Ready to run within a week
- Documented handoff included

What participants publicly say about the hackathon
Summarised takeaways from approved LinkedIn posts by teams that built with us.
From “I should really learn AI” to a shipped product, with zero coding experience.
No months of prep needed: a team, a bit of chaos, and it turned into a working product.

After day one, people who had never opened a terminal were building in Claude Code.

The biggest effect wasn’t the tooling, it was the mindset shift: “I can build this myself.”

AI workshop for logistics teams, one day onsite on freight documents and tracking. The entry point before the Corporathon hackathon.

Where logistics teams lose time
Freight documents and customs papers get checked and transferred by hand. Customers keep asking for status instead of being informed automatically. Exceptions in the delivery process run on phone calls instead of a system. Route planning relies on outdated spreadsheets.

What the team builds
Challenges from dispatch, customs and customer service. A document extractor with Claude Code that reads freight papers and customs documents and structures fields. A tracking update bot with n8n that informs customers automatically on status changes. An exception assistant that detects delivery delays and suggests alternatives. A dispatch support tool that derives route suggestions from current data, plus a KPI reporting autopilot with Gamma for punctuality and utilization.
03
One week to your Corporathon
Want more after the workshop day? You move straight into the multi-day Corporathon hackathon. Here is how that path runs. 1. Intro call, we understand network, systems and pain. 2. Tools and challenges call, we pick the automations with the biggest lever. 3. Finalizing data and access, TMS, WMS, tracking data. 4. Preparation, we set up environment and sample data. 5. Hackathon days, tool workshop in the morning, sprint on the prototype, pitches at the end.

Classic training vs. Corporathon
A training tells dispatch teams about AI. A Corporathon delivers the bot that informs customers about the next delay before they call. That is why team usage stays high.
Output, not slides
A Corporathon is not a seminar. It is a facilitated sprint where teams rebuild real work with AI.

Does this work with our TMS or WMS? Yes. We connect to common transport and warehouse management systems via n8n and APIs. We clarify access and data formats upfront so the prototype works with your real shipment data. Do our freight and customer data stay secure? We work in your environment with your accounts. Sensitive freight and customer data stays with you. The hackathon also delivers the …
All three work. On site creates the strongest momentum, remote is leaner logistically, hybrid is the usual compromise for distributed sites.
You get a documented handoff: prototypes, setup, open items and a recommendation on which results deserve to go to production.
We define target metrics before the sprint — hours saved, cycle time, quality or revenue contribution — and review them in the closing session.
Slots are usually available within two to four weeks. With a clearly scoped use case it can be sooner.
Usually not for smaller formats. As soon as production systems are connected, we bring IT and security in early.
