AI Freight Quotation Engine
Instant quotes. Protected margins. Happy clients.
An AI-powered freight quotation engine that generates accurate quotes in seconds from your rate cards. Enforces minimum margin rules, routes high-value quotes to founders for WhatsApp approval, and sends professional branded PDFs to clients automatically.
The Problem: Quoting Takes Hours and Silently Kills Margins
In Indian logistics, the difference between winning and losing a client often comes down to quote speed. Most companies take 30 minutes to 2 hours to generate a freight quotation manually looking up rate cards, calculating surcharges, applying discounts, and formatting the document. In the rush to respond fast, sales teams under-cut margins without realizing it. There is no approval workflow, no margin tracking, and no way to know which quotes convert and which do not.
Manual quotation takes 30 minutes to 2 hours per enquiry clients go to faster competitors while you are still calculating
Rate card look-up is error-prone wrong lane rate, forgotten surcharge, outdated seasonal pricing applied
No margin protection sales teams under-cut to win deals, sometimes quoting below cost on complex multi-stop routes
No approval workflow junior salespeople can quote Rs.50 lakh annual contracts without any oversight
Quote documents are manually created in Word inconsistent branding, missing terms, and unprofessional presentation
No quote-to-conversion analytics you cannot tell which pricing strategies win deals and which lose them
Who This Is Built For
This is for logistics companies receiving 10 or more quotation requests daily, especially those where the founder or senior management needs to approve high-value quotes. If margin leakage from under-cutting is silently eating your profits, this engine stops it.
