MySavant.ai unveils an AI-driven nearshore talent solution for logistics and supply chain professionals

Rethinking Nearshoring in Logistics: The MySavant.ai Approach

For a long time, nearshoring has been promoted to logistics companies as a straightforward solution: relocate operations closer to home, hire more staff, and reduce expenses. However, as the freight industry faces ongoing instability and tight profit margins, it’s becoming clear that simply increasing headcount doesn’t always lead to better results.

This realization is at the heart of MySavant.ai’s debut. Unlike traditional staffing or Business Process Outsourcing (BPO) firms, MySavant.ai is betting that the future of nearshore operations will be shaped by smart technology rather than just labor cost savings.

Challenging the Traditional Model

MySavant.ai was founded by logistics professionals with extensive backgrounds in nearshoring and BPO. They recognized a common issue: conventional nearshore strategies tend to scale in a linear fashion—more work means more employees, additional management layers, and increased complexity. This often leads to stagnant productivity, reduced transparency, and rising hidden costs.

“We’ve witnessed both the successes and failures of nearshoring,” explained Hunter Bell, founder and CEO of MySavant.ai. “Problems usually arise when growth relies solely on adding staff, without truly understanding how tasks are performed.”

This perspective is informed by years of experience. MySavant.ai builds on the operational foundation of Savant International, a global BPO and tech services provider led by industry veteran Juan Baena, which has managed large-scale nearshore operations for over eight years.

Integrating AI into Operations

What sets MySavant.ai apart is its use of artificial intelligence—not as an add-on, but as a core part of its operational system. Instead of relying on static staffing models, the company utilizes AI-powered teams focused on measurable results. AI is woven into daily processes across voice, digital, and back-office functions, automating repetitive tasks, helping prioritize work, and tracking performance and quality in real time.

The intention isn’t to replace human workers, but to eliminate obstacles that hinder their productivity.

Transforming Team Scalability

This new approach changes how nearshore teams expand. With AI constantly monitoring workflows, potential issues and inefficiencies are identified sooner. Teams can ramp up more quickly, individual productivity rises, and capacity planning becomes proactive, enabling growth without sacrificing control or consistency.

“AI provides real-time visibility into our operations, rather than delayed insights from reports,” said Mike Foy, president of MySavant.ai. “This empowers teams to work more efficiently and reliably, without increasing the management load for our clients.”

Beyond Efficiency: Addressing Workforce Challenges

The benefits extend past operational efficiency. By minimizing manual supervision and aligning workloads more accurately, this model also tackles persistent workforce issues like high turnover and inconsistent performance—problems that have long affected both domestic hiring and traditional BPO setups.

Initial outcomes indicate that this strategy appeals to businesses focused on cost control. According to MySavant.ai, clients typically experience shorter cycle times, higher throughput, and up to 25% lower operating costs compared to standard U.S. hiring or conventional outsourcing.

For routine processes, MySavant.ai also offers pricing based on outcomes, linking costs directly to completed work and service standards instead of the number of employees.

Rather than acting as a typical staffing agency, MySavant.ai positions itself as a strategic partner, sharing responsibility for results and embedding ongoing improvement into every client relationship.

“Nearshoring doesn’t fail because of people,” Bell noted. “It fails when growth is managed without insight.”
