Logistics: parcels, rounds, freight, warehouses
The sheets listed here describe an use in transportation, freight, courier or tour preparation. A software that speaks of "message" within the meaning of chat, or a delivery quoted in passing, is not enough.
When the organisation is a logistician (Geodis, Chronopost, CMA CGM), internal use — including computer support — remains classified here, because it is the business.
This selection has 16 spotted cases. 16 concern an organisation in France or the French-speaking world. Proof levels: 13 « Testimony published by an identified source », 2 « Statement by the tool’s publisher » and 1 « Institutional source ». Most cited tools: Mistral (3), Gemini (2) and Forecast Models (Probayes) (1).
Recurring caveats
