AI Agent for Transportation Orders with GPT-4o & OpenRoute API

This n8n workflow is designed for small transportation companies managing delivery requests via email. It uses two AI Agent nodes powered by GPT-4o to parse unstructured email content into structured data like pickup/delivery addresses and contacts. Addresses are geocoded to GPS coordinates, then queried against OpenRouteService API using the truck (driving-hgv) profile to retrieve accurate driving distance in km and estimated time in minutes.

The workflow enriches orders with real-time route data, stores everything in a Google Sheet for easy tracking, and automatically sends a professional confirmation email to customers. This eliminates manual data entry, reduces errors, and provides quick quotes on travel time and distance, optimizing operations for carriers.

Benefits include cost savings from automation, minimized environmental impact through efficient routing, and scalability for handling high email volumes. Ideal use cases: freight brokers, local delivery services, or logistics firms starting with AI-driven order management. Created by supply chain expert Samir Saci.
