The Cargo.one platform is now offering AI-powered quoting and rate management capabilities to help forwarders win more business.
AI automates extraction of shipment details and rate collection, eliminating manual data entry and quote preparation time, with a unified queue feature enabling team collaboration on quotations. Cargo.one now brings all rates, including ad hoc, together into a single workspace, allowing end-to-end quoting for every opportunity.
According to the platform, forwarders using the new capabilities report improved efficiency and faster quote turnaround times, leading to increased conversion rates.
The freight forwarding industry has long struggled with fragmented workflows that force teams to chase rates across different tools, and manually copy data. This slows down quoting processes and prevents teams from focusing on more worthwhile activities like building customer relationships and handling complex shipments or large tenders.
The latest product release addresses these challenges with three AI-powered automation to accelerate quoting, enhanced rate management system with all rate types needed for complete door-to-door pricing in one place, and integrated workflows that enable freight forwarders to work on opportunities and quotations from one central queue.
Freight forwarders receive hundreds of quote requests daily, with teams spending hours manually processing requests and logging data. Cargo.one uses AI to extract shipment details from incoming emails and collect relevant rates from its AI-native database.
Alongside the platform’s live and static rates, forwarders can now manually request rates from airline sales teams directly on the platform, while leveraging their own consol and gateway rates. Comprehensive rate coverage enables forwarders to compare all rate options, while ensuring full control over rate access by teams.
Freight forwarders using cargo.one can prioritize opportunities and quotes in a central queue, access every rate needed, and sync quotes directly to their system.
