How to Use Intel

Intel gives real-time risk and event intelligence tied directly to your trips and lanes — so you see disruptions before they cost you time or money.

Written by James Novino

What Intel does

Intel continuously monitors for events that can impact your freight, including:

  • Cargo theft and hijackings

  • Severe weather (hurricanes, floods, winter storms, high winds)

  • Accidents and roadway incidents

  • Road, rail, and port closures or disruptions

  • Facility outages and hazmat incidents

When an event overlaps your active trips, Intel surfaces it automatically — no setup, no manual searching.

Where to find Intel

1. Asset Map

Risk events show as a live signal layer over your active trips on the Asset Map. Open a trip marker to see nearby alerts and how they relate to the route.

2. Trip sidebar — Risk Alerts tab

Open any trip and select the Risk Alerts tab to see events impacting that specific load — location, type, and relevant detail.

3. Ask AI (Insights)

Ask natural-language questions like:

  • "Show me my trips at risk"

  • "Are there any alerts on trip #12345?"

  • "What's happening near [lane/city]?"

Insights returns a prioritized list of affected trips with a summary and recommendation for each.

Availability

Intel is included free for all Insights customers. It's on by default — nothing to enable.

FAQ

Do I need to configure anything?
No. Intel runs automatically against your active trips.

Can I filter which alert types I see?
Filtering options are on the roadmap; not available at initial launch.

Where does the data come from?
Intel draws on a broad, continuously updated set of public risk and event signals — not carrier or load data you haven't shared with Alvys.

Does this replace my carrier's tracking/ELD data?
No — Intel is a risk-awareness layer on top of your existing tracking, not a replacement for it.
