AI freight quoting for freight forwarders
From the client's RFQ email to a finished, branded quote, priced from the forwarder's own rates.
A freight forwarder's day is quote requests: emails with a lane, a few pallets or a container, sometimes half the details missing. Pricing each one means pulling the right carrier sheet, the right port charges, converting currencies, applying margin and typing it all into a document — and the client who answers first usually wins the job.
It turns that request into a quote. The AI reads the email; the pricing engine does the maths from the forwarder's own rate sheets — never a guess. Anything the request doesn't say is flagged for the operator instead of assumed.
The result is an editable draft, a carrier comparison for the lane, and a branded PDF quote carrying the forwarder's terms, ready to send — usually in minutes rather than hours.
