Hey there,

Welcome to the fifth LOST FR8 weekly recap. We added another customer! Also our Discord has been popping lately, all are welcome to come and join the fun!

Let's get started.


⏪ Last Week ⏪

Old Goals

- 1 new customer

✅ Got it

- Capacity email pushed to prod

✅ Done

- Update Guide to reflect Email instructions

✅ All set.

Takeaways

  • People like email

    Both our customers and their brokers mentioned they still want to receive capacity via email. Prior to launching and receiving actual customer feedback, I assumed customers/brokers would prefer not using email. We quickly realized that wasn't the case.

  • Give carriers control

    We kicked around a couple ways of implementing capacity emails, including giving brokers the ability to subscribe to capacity changes, but ultimately decided placing the functionality entirely in the hands of carriers. They add emails to a list and can toggle which emails they want to send a capacity list to.

Feedback/Fixes

  • Sort order for dates

Our customers mentioned they'd prefer the capacity table be default sorted from present -> future. We've made that change on both the dashboard and profile.
