Instant quotes. Win more deals.
The first good quote usually wins the job. Your agent sends it while the customer is still deciding.
- Request sits in the inbox
- Quote goes out Hours
- Deal lost. The load went to the first fair rate.
- Picked up the moment it lands
- Drawn, priced, approved, sent minutes
- First in the inbox. Deal won.
Quoting for freight brokers & 3pls is messy
- Minutes matter. First fair rate gets the load
- Inbox flood. Hundreds of spot requests a day
- Guessed rates. Too low loses money, too high loses the load
- Missed details. Hazmat, team, appointment
An agent that handles the messy parts your way.

Conceptual walkthrough with sample data and a fictional company, not a recording of a customer's run. Screens of third-party software are recreated for illustration; product names belong to their owners.
How many hours can you get back?
Your volume, your times, your labor cost. Estimates, not results.
Rate requests × (minutes today − minutes with the agent) ÷ 60 × hourly cost
These are example assumptions, not results. Example for a mid-size brokerage desk: minutes cover reading the request, checking rates, pricing, replying and logging. Use your own numbers.
Questions owners ask us
Can it quote from any email format?
Yes. It reads free-text emails, tables, spreadsheets and portal notices the way a rep does. If a detail it needs is missing, it asks the shipper in the same thread.
Where do the rates come from?
From the rate tools you already subscribe to, under your login, and your own lane history in your TMS. Your margin rules decide the final number.
Will it quote on its own?
Only inside the limits you set: lanes, equipment, customers and dollar ranges. Everything else goes to a rep with the numbers attached.
Does it work in McLeod or Aljex?
It works the screens your reps use. We have no partnership with those vendors and confirm the exact steps on your version before a pilot.
