# Augie now schedules freight appointments end-to-end

Feb 26, 2026

Appointment scheduling is one of the most time-consuming parts of load execution. Augie now takes a scheduling-ready load, fetches live-time facility capacity, finds the optimal pickup and delivery slots in your scheduling portal, books them, and syncs confirmation back to your TMS — all at the touch of a button.

### Why It Matters

- Give your reps hours back each week by eliminating manual portal work.
- Move loads faster and reduce coverage risk with quicker appointment confirmation.
- Cut errors from manual re-entry, time zone inaccuracies, and missed confirmations.

### How It Works

- Detects eligible loads and pulls required shipper, stop, and reference details from the TMS.
- Retrieves available appointment slots in your scheduling portal for pickup and delivery.
- Evaluates valid slot combinations against constraints like lead time, operating hours, and scheduling buffers.
- Books the selected appointments directly in your portal.
- Writes appointment times and confirmation codes back to your TMS.

### Availability

- In beta with select customers. Contact your Augment rep to learn more.
