# Your Pricing Department, in One System

Pricing & Quoting

Quote requests by email, rates in spreadsheets, and one person who knows how it all fits. We turn that into one system your whole pricing team works in.

- **One inbox** sorted by AI, read on a click
- **One rate book** carrier, ocean and trucking rates
- **One click** to approve and send a quote

## Built for Teams Who Price Every Day

In most forwarders and distributors, pricing runs on email, spreadsheets and memory. It works until volume grows, a key person is on holiday, or two people quote the same customer differently.

We start by sitting with your pricers, then build the system around the way they already work, so it feels familiar on day one.

- **Requests Read for You**: AI sorts the shared inbox, and on a click reads a request into the quote form: ports, cargo and dates. When something is missing, it flags it instead of guessing.
- **Every Rate in One Place**: Contracted carrier, ocean, trucking and rail rates in one searchable book, not twenty files.
- **Approvals Built In**: Margins, sign-offs and handovers follow your rules, and every quote leaves a trail.

## Is Pricing the Bottleneck?

- **Quote requests get lost in the inbox**: Requests arrive by email in every format. Someone copies the details into a sheet by hand, and a few slip through every week. *We find out when the customer asks where their quote is.*
- **Only one or two people know the rates**: The latest carrier rates live in personal files. When those people are busy or away, pricing slows down or stops. *Our pricing knowledge goes home every evening.*
- **Every quote looks a little different**: Margins, surcharges and wording change with whoever prepared the quote. Managers cannot see what was offered, to whom, or why. *We cannot tell which quotes we win, or why we lose the rest.*

## From Inbox to Quote in One System

Every request follows the same path, and your team steps in only where judgement matters.

1. **Email arrives**: A quote request lands in the shared inbox you already use.
2. **AI reads the request**: On a click, ports, cargo and dates are pulled out and checked.
3. **Rates matched**: Contracted carrier and trucking rates are looked up.
4. **Quote drafted**: The pricer reviews a ready quote, not a blank sheet.
5. **Approved**: The right person signs off in one click.
6. **Sent to customer**: A clean quote goes out and the deal is tracked.

- **Pipeline and Win Rates**: Managers see open quotes, wins and losses by customer, lane and pricer.
- **Quotes in Your Format**: Quotes go out as clean documents in your layout, ready to send.
- **No New Habits for Customers**: Customers keep emailing the address they know; the system reads from it.

## Map, Design, Build, Grow

The same four steps in every engagement, worded for this work.

1. **Map**: We sit with your pricers and trace every request, rate file and approval as it happens today.
2. **Design**: We agree the ideal quoting flow on a canvas: who does what, which rules apply, where AI helps.
3. **Build**: We build your pricing system in stages, connected to your inbox and rate files, live in months, not years. You own the code.
4. **Grow**: Every quarter we review the results with you and add the next piece: new lanes, rate sources or reports.
