OneRail launches AI platform with Nvidia for faster retail delivery decisions

Logistics company OneRail has launched OmniSTAR, an AI-driven delivery decisioning platform developed in collaboration with Nvidia. Powered by Nvidia's GPU-accelerated hardware and software, the platform reduces package routing decision times from 20 minutes to 2.5 minutes. This technology allows smaller retailers to optimize last-mile logistics, improve margins, and compete with giants like Amazon. Early deployments have already shown significant impact, including a projected $40 million in savings over three years for a major tire distributor.
