Company profile

researched Aug 2026

Convey, Inc. built software for retailers and shippers focused on last-mile delivery visibility and "delivery experience management" across parcel and freight shipments. Its product line included Engage, described as software unifying customer experience, logistics and support functions so that shipment execution could be monitored and managed collaboratively, using real-time, context-rich shipment data and analytics. A second capability set, Predictive Insights, applied machine learning to shipment data to flag delivery problems before carriers reported them and to help shippers triangulate root causes of network transportation issues.

Convey's insights product covered defined exception categories including attempted deliveries, damages, incorrect addresses, shipments predicted to miss the estimated delivery date, and stalled shipments. Dashboards correlated exceptions with specific carriers and locations to surface leading indicators such as delayed carrier facilities, lost trucks and weather events, and included configurable alerts so shippers could notify customers of delays or open carrier cases.

The getconvey.com domain, including its former About page, now serves project44's supply chain "Decision Intelligence Platform" content, which spans intelligent transportation management, shipment and inventory visibility, yard management and e-commerce logistics, and cites network scale figures such as 282,000 connected carriers and more than 1.5 billion shipments annually.

Business model

Convey sold enterprise software to retailers and shippers, with lead-generation forms segmenting prospects by annual parcel shipping volume (bands from under 10,000 to over 100,000 shipments) and annual freight shipping volume (bands from under 1,000 to over 10,000), indicating volume-tiered enterprise sales to shipping organizations.

Latest developments

In March 2020, in response to the COVID-19 pandemic and its impact on supply chains, Convey made its predictive shipping insights product available to retailers free of charge. Company-branded web properties carry copyright notices for 2019 and 2020, and the primary getconvey.com domain now presents project44's platform.

Full profile — market position, technology, go-to-market

Market position

Convey positioned itself in the last-mile delivery visibility and delivery experience management segment of retail supply chain software, describing Engage as the first software to unify customer experience, logistics and support around delivery execution.

Technology

The platform combined real-time shipment data feeds with machine learning models that predicted delivery failures ahead of carrier reporting. According to company materials, the model detected shipments likely to miss their delivery date on average 19 hours before the carrier revised its estimated delivery date and 43 hours before weather-related delay exceptions were reported, flagging at-risk shipments with 96% precision across risk levels; AI-driven exception types were said to reveal issues affecting up to 17% of shipments.

Go-to-market

Marketing ran through gated content such as product overview videos and insights offers on info.getconvey.com, with contact forms capturing job title, company and shipping volumes to route prospects to sales.

Retailers and e-commerce shippers managing parcel and freight delivery networks, including their customer experience, logistics and support teams.
