nowlun_get_tracking_update
ChatGPTReturns the latest status for a shipment previously started with nowlun_track_shipment. The card refreshes itself while the carrier is still working, so call this only if the user asks again later.
Overview
Nowlun turns a Bill of Lading into a live shipment view. Upload the document, or just paste a BL, booking, or container number, and get the current status back in the chat. Beyond tracking identifiers, it reads the full contents of the BL — shipper and consignee, notify party, cargo description, container numbers and sizes, ports of loading and discharge, vessel and voyage, and commercial terms. So instead of retyping details from a PDF into a portal, you can ask questions about the document directly. Once the shipment is identified, you get: Current status and last known milestone Vessel, voyage, and carrier details ETD and ETA, with schedule changes when the carrier updates them Container-level breakdown for multi-container shipments An interactive map showing the route and where the vessel is now Useful for freight forwarders, importers and exporters, and anyone who handles shipping documents and wants an answer without logging into three carrier websites. Nowlun is a digital freight forwarding platform covering sea freight, air cargo, customs clearance, and inland trucking. No account is required to track a shipment.
Tools
nowlun_identify_tracking_number
ChatGPTSays what kind of tracking number this is before anything is looked up. Creates nothing and contacts no carrier.
nowlun_lane_summary
ChatGPTShows a card for an ocean lane with a link to Nowlun's rates for it. Ports may be names or UN/LOCODEs. Call this when the user asks what a lane costs or wants to price a route. Do NOT call it after a tracking lookup: the tracking card already carries the rates panel for its own lane. It returns no prices itself; the card links to the search.
nowlun_track_shipment
ChatGPTAsks the carrier for this shipment's status. Nowlun records the lookup internally to run the carrier query; no account is created, and no customer data is read or changed. Carriers usually take minutes, so the first answer is normally that tracking has started.
