In this episode of Everything is Logistics, Blythe talks with Tapan Chadhar, CEO of Hey Bubba, about how voice AI is being built specifically for fleets, truckers, and carriers.
Hey Bubba acts as an AI brain for trucking companies. It sits on top of TMS, email, phone calls, telematics, load boards, and driver communication tools to help fleets book freight, negotiate loads, talk to brokers, update drivers, and manage daily operations.
They cover:
- Why Hey Bubba was built specifically for fleets and owner-operators
- How voice AI changes the way drivers interact with trucking technology
- Why email is still the operating system for many small carriers
- How Bubba can help search load boards, call brokers, and negotiate freight
- How driver workflows can move from screens and typing to voice conversations
- Why access to clean operational data matters for larger fleets
- How carriers should think about AI adoption without overcomplicating it
This conversation is part of the CargoRex AI Use Cases in Logistics guide, featuring real examples of how logistics companies are using AI across freight, warehousing, procurement, visibility, and operations.
