> PortPro launched AI Agents for the drayage industry. The agents are powered by artificial intelligence and can understand user intent, process data, and make decisions dynamically. Built directly into PortPro’s transportation management system, the AI agents are designed to help companies reduce repetitive work, and respond faster. > AI-powered mobile data capture technology provider Anyline debuted Barcode:AI for high-speed barcode scanning for industries such as retail, manufacturing, automotive, and pharmaceutical. Able to make 33 scans per second and process up to 25 codes simultaneously, Barcode:AI combines real- time augmented reality with AI for anomaly detection and automated data validation. > Export Genius, a global trade data platform, upgraded its dashboard to help exporters and importers make trade decisions. New features include global search, a unified view of the user’s subscribed countries; a market summary showing trade details alongside rising demand and active markets; and custom sorting, which lets users arrange trade data by HS code, country, date, importer, or supplier.

> South Carolina Ports completed a $55-million expansion at Inland Port Greer, strengthening its intermodal capabilities and connectivity from the Port of Charleston to inland markets. Upgrades include an expanded container yard to increase cargo capacity by 50%, 9,000 feet of additional rail to handle longer trains, an expanded chassis lot, and new terminal operations and maintenance buildings.

> Resilinc launched its Agentic AI platform, an autonomous intelligence solution designed to help global enterprises predict, mitigate, and respond to disruptions across complex supply chains. The platform includes disruption management agents (global disruption monitoring that provides real-time risk detection and contextualizes the impact), human rights and compliance agents (which track forced labor exposure), and tariffs and trade compliance agents (which scan supplier networks against tariff regulations, anti-dumping rules, and country-of-origin constraints).

> Carrier Transicold’s new Vector 8200, an all- electric, engineless refrigeration unit with single and multi-temperature capabilities, is designed for trailers used as stationary cold storage. The Vector 8200 uses electricity from the grid or other external power sources. Its TRU-Demand E-Drive energy management system monitors the power draw and adjusts to changes in a facility’s electrical supply.
