OneRail Launches OmniStar AI Platform, Cutting Delivery Routing Time to 2.5 Minutes

Summary
OneRail said OmniStar can cut delivery-routing decisions to 2.5 minutes from 20 minutes, using Nvidia AI to choose the best carrier and delivery mode for each order.
The platform is aimed at retailers struggling with costly, fragmented last-mile operations as e-commerce demand rises, with OneRail arguing faster decisions can protect margins and scale delivery networks.
OneRail said its proprietary data from more than 12 million drivers and over 1,000 logistics partners trains the system, which has already been deployed with some customers.
A large tire distributor using OmniStar is on pace to save $40 million over three years, and OneRail expects the platform to surpass $6 billion in gross merchandise volume in the fourth quarter.
The launch extends OneRail's push to help smaller retailers compete with Amazon and Walmart on speed and efficiency, building on its earlier FedEx same-day delivery partnership.
