The challenge
Where the work was getting stuck.
Mentfield, a UK international freight forwarder with specialisations in perishables, pharmaceuticals, time-critical, and project cargo, managed a client base that included major global brands requiring exacting documentation standards. Missing or incomplete shipment data — incorrect commodity codes, missing certificates of origin, incomplete temperature requirements for pharma shipments — regularly caused delays at customs clearance and created costly hold situations for time-sensitive cargo. The manual process of chasing missing data from clients and correcting submissions consumed significant team capacity.
The solution
One intelligence layer across the workflow.
Stargo Stardox Agentic AI was deployed as a data intelligence layer across Mentfield's shipment intake and documentation workflow. The Stardox Agentic AI analyses incoming shipment instructions against expected data completeness requirements — by commodity type, origin-destination pair, and regulatory regime — and proactively identifies missing or inconsistent fields before documentation is submitted. Clients receive structured, specific requests for missing data via the portal rather than generic follow-up emails. For pharmaceutical cargo, temperature profiles and regulatory certificates are validated automatically against IATA and WHO standards.
"Missing data used to be our silent cost — delays, storage charges, frustrated clients. Stargo catches the gaps before they become problems. Our pharma and perishable clients noticed immediately."
