Core Intelligence: Now book a delivery by email or text

With Curri's Core Intelligence, distributors can book a same-day delivery by emailing quotes@curri.com or texting 1-805-977-8903. Send your pickup location, drop-off address, and what needs to move. Curri sends back a full quote with pricing and a delivery window. Approve it, and the job is in motion. Branch managers can request a delivery from the counter, the warehouse floor, or mid-call with a contractor, wherever the moment demands it.

Why branch managers need a faster booking path

When a contractor says they need something today, the clock starts immediately. The delivery has to be confirmed before the customer moves on to another option. Every step between that conversation and a booked delivery (opening a browser, finding a login, navigating a portal) burns time that a busy branch manager simply does not have.

Most delivery management platforms were built for dispatchers at a desk. That works well in that context. But delivery decisions at distributor branches often happen fast, in the middle of something else. The person making the call might be at the counter with a line of customers, or on the floor coordinating a pickup, or already on their phone. The booking process needs to work where they are.

How Curri's Core Intelligence works for email and text messaging

Curri's Core Intelligence now includes email and text as a booking channel. The complete flow takes three steps:

• Email quotes@curri.com or text 1-805-977-8903 with your delivery details: pickup location, drop-off address, and what needs to move.
• Curri responds with a full quote that includes pricing, vehicle type, and an estimated delivery window.
• You approve the quote. The delivery is booked, a driver is assigned, and the job is in motion.

No account dashboard to navigate. No form to fill out. The request goes in like a normal message and comes back as a confirmed delivery.

Multi-stop deliveries (MSD) work the same way. Send the stops, and Curri handles the routing on the back end, returning a single quote for the full run.

The quote, preview, and approve flow keeps branches in control

Distributors need to know exactly what they're committing to before a delivery goes out. Curri's response includes pricing, vehicle type, and an estimated window before anything is confirmed. If the quote works for the job, approve it and it moves. If something needs to change, decline and adjust.

This means no invoice surprises. For high-volume days when multiple requests go out in quick succession, each one generates its own quote and confirmation thread in the same inbox. No context-switching between platforms. No separate logins for each job.

When this booking channel matters most

The email and text channel is available any time, but it earns the most when speed is what matters:

• A contractor requests same-day delivery after your usual cutoff
• Your dispatch team is handling a surge and someone else needs to book a hotshot fast
• A branch manager is on the floor and cannot step away to a computer
• You need to confirm pricing on a multi-stop delivery before committing the job

HVAC, plumbing, and building materials branches that run lean teams feel this most directly. Less time on booking logistics means more time with customers and more deliveries confirmed per day.
