Slow Response Times
Customers request a quote, but your team takes hours to calculate multi-modal tariffs and capacity manually.
Quoting Engines
Conversion
Automate complex global quoting.
We engineer custom quoting engines that factor in ocean/air rates, customs duties, fuel surcharges (BAF), and drayage to provide instant, accurate global freight quotes.
- Custom calculation engines factoring in FCL/LCL volume, hazardous classes, and peak season surcharges
- Live API integrations with your Freight Management System (like CargoWise) for instant booking
- Automated PDF quote generation for complex, multi-modal project cargo
Manual quoting destroys margin and speed.
Global freight moves fast. If a shipper has to email a packing list, wait for your team to check ocean carrier rates, calculate drayage, and then wait for an emailed spreadsheet quote, they will simply use a digital-first forwarder like Flexport instead. Manual quoting limits your volume.
Data Entry Errors
Staff manually type dimensions from an email into the FMS, resulting in incorrect billing or space mismatches.
Lost Time Zone Revenue
You lose bids on Asian imports because your quoting process requires a human awake in the US.
The deliverables
Automated global commerce.
We engineer quoting engines that handle the complex math of international logistics instantly.
Custom Quoting Frontends
Building bespoke React interfaces where shippers input dims, Incoterms, and ports to instantly see rates.
FMS API Middleware
Developing secure Node.js layers that translate quote requests between the modern frontend and legacy FMS databases.
Complex Tariff Logic
Ensuring that dimensional weight rules, specialized accessorials (chassis splits, pre-pulls), and customer-specific tariffs are calculated.
Dynamic PDF Generators
Engines that take the selected route and automatically generate a stunning, detailed PDF quote ready for the customer.
Featured Freight Platform
Digitizing the global supply chain.
See how we helped a global freight forwarder build a custom customer portal connected directly to CargoWise, drastically reducing 'Where is my container?' phone calls and automating their multi-modal quoting process.
Freight ForwardingCargoWise Integration
Project Overview
Complete visibility, zero phone calls.
We developed a secure portal where shippers can log in, view live AIS tracking of their ocean freight, submit customs documents, and pay invoices via Stripe—all syncing bidirectionally with the legacy freight management system.
Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about freight tech.
How do you integrate with CargoWise or other legacy forwarding systems?
We build secure API middleware to connect your headless frontend directly to complex Freight Management Systems (FMS). This allows us to pull live tracking data, shipment statuses, and invoices without exposing the core database.
Can you automate ocean and air quoting?
Yes. Global quoting is incredibly complex due to fluctuating bunker adjustments, peak season surcharges, and local drayage. We build custom calculation engines that pull these variables to generate instant, accurate web quotes for shippers.
Do you provide live map tracking for ocean freight?
Yes. We integrate with visibility providers like Project44, FourKites, or direct AIS data streams to plot containers on an interactive global map within the customer portal.
