Private beta. Onboarding 10 brands in Q2 2026.

Your Logistics Inbox, On Autopilot.

Cargoto is an AI ops assistant that reads every supplier and 3PL email, drafts replies in your voice, tracks every PO and ASN, and keeps your shipments moving. So your team can stop living in Gmail and start scaling the brand.

Built for ops teams at fast-growing DTC, CPG, and e-commerce brands.
The reality

Your ops team spends half their day in email. The other half cleaning up what email missed.

Suppliers in Shenzhen, freight forwarders in Long Beach, 3PLs in Memphis, FBA support in Seattle. Every thread is mission-critical and almost none of it scales. This is where Cargoto lives.

A real example

What your ops manager handles by Friday, Cargoto handles in eight seconds.

An email lands at 4:32 PM from your apparel supplier in Suzhou. Two POs touched, two exceptions buried in a paragraph of broken English. Here is what Cargoto does with it before you finish your coffee.

Drafted reply (in Sam's voice)

Hi Lily, thanks for the heads-up.

PO-2847: confirmed, May 25 ETA noted. Please ping me if the Shenzhen congestion clears earlier or the vessel reroutes.

PO-2851: approved for partial shipment of 2,800 units. Please send the updated commercial invoice reflecting the 2,800 qty and ship the 200-unit balance with the June batch. We'll track the balance as PO-2851-B.

FBA label: opened the v2 label, looks correct. Approved, please apply to all cartons in this lot.

Thanks, Sam

Cargoto will not send without your approval.

How Cargoto works

Three steps. Then your inbox is quiet for the first time in years.

No data migration, no rebuilding your stack. Cargoto plugs into the inbox you already use, learns your business from past threads, and starts working alongside your ops manager from day one.

STEP 01

Connect Gmail or Outlook

OAuth in under two minutes. Cargoto reads the last 12 months of supplier and 3PL threads to learn your SKUs, suppliers, lanes, FCs, payment terms, and writing style.

No new login for your suppliers. No CSV uploads. No "let us schedule an implementation call." It just works on the email you already have.
STEP 02

Reads every thread, in any language

Cargoto extracts POs, ASNs, ETAs, tracking numbers, exceptions, and attachments. Mandarin, Spanish, Vietnamese, Hindi, Turkish. Parsed into clean structured data your team can actually query.

Built on multi-agent extraction with grounded retrieval over your supplier history, so the same SKU mentioned three different ways still ties back to the right PO.
STEP 03

Drafts, routes, and acts

Cargoto writes replies in your voice, files attachments to the right folders, pushes ASNs to your 3PL, and flags exceptions in Slack. Run on full autopilot or keep a human in the loop. Your call, every thread.

SOPs you define are enforced as guardrails. Cargoto will never send a reply that violates them, and every action is logged with full provenance.
The boring 80%

Cargoto handles the work that doesn't scale.

Not strategy. Not negotiation. The endless coordination that drains your best people. A few of the things Cargoto is already doing for design partners in private beta.

01
Chasing the ASN from a supplier who keeps "forgetting" until it's too late for the 3PL receiving window. Cargoto follows up daily at the right local time, in their language.
02
Translating a Mandarin packing list and reconciling it against the PO. If 200 units are missing, Cargoto flags it before the container leaves origin.
03
Forwarding the BOL to your 3PL the second the carrier emails it. Cargoto recognizes the doc type, attaches the right metadata, files a copy in Drive.
04
Splitting a partial shipment into a new PO and looping in finance for the revised commercial invoice. The kind of thing that used to need four emails and a screenshot.
05
Catching that a supplier shipped 9,800 of 10,000 units and reconciling the variance against your inbound forecast. Before ASN ever hits the FC.
06
Re-routing inventory between FCs when one runs low on a hot SKU and another is sitting on overflow. Cargoto drafts the 3PL transfer request and waits for your green light.
07
Answering "where's PO-2847 right now?" in Slack with the actual answer. Container, vessel, ETA, last carrier ping, who's holding it up. In one line.
08
Catching that the supplier quoted the wrong HTS code in their pro forma invoice. Saves you a customs hold and a $4k duty correction six weeks later.
What's in the product

A working ops assistant, not a chat bot.

Cargoto isn't a sidebar that summarizes threads. It's an agent with tools, memory, and your business context. Here's what comes in the box.

Inbox autopilot

Reads, classifies, and drafts every supplier and 3PL email. Sends on your approval or per your SOP rules.

PO and ASN tracker

Every order auto-extracted into a structured record. Quantity, ETA, container, lane, status. Live dashboard.

Exception alerts

Delays, shortages, damages, FC errors. Cargoto flags them in Slack the moment it sees them in the thread.

Multilingual

Mandarin, Spanish, Vietnamese, Hindi, Turkish, Portuguese, Polish. Talks to suppliers in their language.

Document handling

PIs, CIs, packing lists, BOLs, COOs. Cargoto classifies, validates, files to Drive or Dropbox, and tags by PO.

3PL coordination

Pushes ASNs to ShipBob, ShipMonk, FBA, Stord. Tracks receiving dock dates and resolves discrepancies.

SOP enforcement

Define rules once ("never confirm a new ETA without checking lead time" etc.). Cargoto enforces them on every reply.

Full audit log

Every email read, action taken, draft proposed, approval given. Exportable. Built for compliance from day one.

Integrations

Plays well with the stack you already pay for.

Cargoto connects to the tools your ops team already lives in. No rip-and-replace, no new dashboards to babysit.

Why we're building Cargoto

"We watched a 9-figure DTC brand miss a Q4 restock because one supplier reply got buried under 80 other threads. Their ops manager had been with them five years. She just couldn't be in two places at once. Cargoto is the thing she actually needed. Not another dashboard, not another Slack bot. An agent that does the work."

The Cargoto team
Building Cargoto from San Francisco and Ho Chi Minh City
Trust and security

Your data is the entire product. We treat it like it.

Cargoto is built on a single-tenant architecture from day one, with isolated agent runtimes per customer. Your supplier history, SOPs, and pricing never touch another tenant's context. We make this a structural property of the system, not a policy promise.

  • End-to-end encryption at rest and in transit

    AES-256 at rest, TLS 1.3 in transit. Customer-managed KMS keys available on enterprise plans.

  • SOC 2 Type II (in progress)

    Currently in observation window. GDPR-ready. HIPAA on the enterprise roadmap.

  • We don't train on your data

    Your emails, suppliers, SOPs, and threads are never used to train shared models. Ever. No fine print.

  • Self-hosted deployments available

    For enterprise customers, Cargoto deploys in your VPC on AWS, GCP, or Azure. Your inbox keys, your perimeter.

Cargoto is taking 10 brands in the Q2 2026 beta.

If your ops team is drowning in supplier and 3PL email, we'd like to hear from you. Tell us where to reach you and we'll respond within 48 hours.

No spam. We'll reply personally. If you're not a fit, we'll tell you that too.
Common questions

Frequently asked.

Will Cargoto send emails to my suppliers without me approving them?

Not by default. Cargoto runs in "draft mode" out of the box. Every reply waits for a human approve-and-send. As you build trust, you can promote specific thread types to autopilot ("acknowledge ASN receipts automatically", "confirm carrier pickups under $500 freight automatically"). The threshold is always your call, per supplier and per scenario.

How does Cargoto learn my SOPs and writing style?

Two ways. First, Cargoto reads the last 12 months of your supplier and 3PL threads on connect and builds a profile of your tone, your SKU naming conventions, your standard terms, and your patterns. Second, you can write SOPs in plain English ("never agree to a price increase over 4%", "always CC finance on commercial invoices over $20k") and Cargoto enforces them as guardrails on every action.

What if my suppliers email in Mandarin, Spanish, or other languages?

That's the point. Cargoto is multilingual end-to-end. It reads inbound threads in the source language, extracts structured data, and either drafts replies in the same language or in English, your choice per supplier. We currently support Mandarin, Cantonese, Spanish, Vietnamese, Hindi, Turkish, Portuguese, and Polish. More languages quarterly.

Does Cargoto integrate with my 3PL or fulfillment center?

We have direct API integrations with ShipBob, ShipMonk, ShipStation, Stord, and Amazon FBA. For 3PLs without an API (which is most of them, frankly), Cargoto coordinates the way humans do: email and shared portals. Either way, your team gets one place to see ASN status, dock dates, receiving discrepancies, and exception alerts.

Is my data used to train AI models?

No. Your email content, supplier relationships, SOPs, pricing, and order history are never used to train shared or third-party models. We use frontier model APIs for the heavy lifting, with strict no-training agreements in place. Your data stays your data. This is contractual and structural, not a politeness.

What does Cargoto cost?

Pricing during private beta is based on volume of threads handled per month and number of supplier and 3PL relationships connected. Most design partners land between $499/mo and $2,500/mo. Enterprise plans with VPC deployment and custom integrations are quoted separately. We'd rather you talk to us than guess from a pricing page.

What's on the roadmap after email?

Three things, in this order:

  • Voice mode. Cargoto handles supplier phone calls in their language, with full transcript and action capture.
  • Inbound forecasting. Cargoto learns your replenishment cycle and suggests reorder points before you ask.
  • Multi-warehouse routing. Cargoto recommends which SKU goes to which FC based on demand patterns and lane economics.
