Cosito replaces paper receiving inspection forms in produce distribution and cold storage with voice logging — workers speak inspection results at the dock, and the data is structured and available to QA managers in real time.
Produce receiving moves fast. Your inspection data should keep up.
A truck pulls into the dock. The receiver has minutes — not hours — to inspect the load, document condition, flag rejections, and move on to the next one. In most distribution centers, that inspection gets recorded on a paper form, or not at all. By the time it reaches a spreadsheet, the truck is gone and the produce is already in the cooler.
Cold storage makes it worse. Workers wearing insulated gloves in a 34-degree environment aren't pulling out a tablet to complete a form. They're moving fast, handling product, and doing the job. The data capture step is the one that gets skipped.
The cost of incomplete receiving data
Rejections that aren't documented
When a receiver flags a quality issue verbally but doesn't log it formally, there's no record. No chargeback. No supplier accountability. No pattern data for the QA team.
Inspections completed after the fact
End-of-shift catch-up entry is the norm in most DCs. The worker tries to remember what 12 loads looked like six hours ago. The data is incomplete by definition.
No real-time visibility for QA managers
Quality issues that surface in the field don't reach a supervisor until someone walks back to report them — or until end-of-shift review. By then, the decision window is closed.
How Cosito works at the dock and in cold storage
Worker speaks the inspection result
Standing at the dock or in the cooler, the receiver says what they see — condition, temperature, count, any issues. No form to hold, no screen to tap, no gloves to remove.
Cosito logs it as a structured record
The voice entry is transcribed, matched to the correct inspection workflow, and stored as a timestamped record attributed to the receiver — instantly.
QA managers see it before the truck leaves
Inspection results appear in the Cosito dashboard in real time. Supervisors can flag issues, approve rejections, or escalate before the load is put away.
What produce distribution teams log with Cosito
Works in the conditions your workers actually face
Cosito is designed for the physical realities of distribution work — cold environments, insulated gloves, constant movement, shared devices that never seem to be nearby when you need them. Workers speak into any smartphone. No dedicated hardware. No login friction. No reason to skip the log.
