Project Description

Unified Parcel Tracking is a logistics solution designed to streamline shipment tracking across multiple global carriers like DHL, UPS, and USPS. The platform consolidates tracking codes into a single interface, integrates AI for real-time support, and automates communication through WhatsApp and voice channels. 

Scope Of Work

The client approached Oodles to build a unified tracking platform that could handle diverse logistics operations. The goals included integrating global carrier APIs, developing a smart tracking bot with voice and chat capabilities, providing automated shipping quotes with VAT/tax support, and creating an alert system for passive customers. Additionally, the system required full-stack development, containerization, deployment on cloud infrastructure, and seamless WhatsApp integration.

Our Solution

To achieve these goals, Oodles delivered a scalable, AI-enabled logistics platform with the following key features:

  • Modular Backend and API Security:
    Built a microservice-based Python backend with Django, REST Framework, and secure bearer token authentication.
  • Universal Tracking Engine:
    Integrated APIs from major shipping carriers and developed logic to convert tracking codes into localized formats for seamless status updates.
  • AI and Voice Bot Integration:
    Developed an AI-powered bot for package tracking queries, enhanced with Text-to-Speech for telephone support.
  • Shipping Quote Calculator:
    Created a tool that estimates international shipping costs, including tax and VAT, with real-time data from external databases.
  • WhatsApp and Alert System:
    Integrated WhatsApp API to offer auto-responses and implemented an alert system that proactively informs passive users about package updates.
