The Messy reality of rate shopping
Scattered carrier access
Users had to log into multiple carrier systems or request quotes via email, leading to wasted time and inconsistent workflows.
Lack of rate transparency
Comparing apples-to-apples was difficult. Different carriers returned rates in varying formats, and users lacked a unified view.
Inefficient decision-making
Users had to log into multiple carrier systems or request quotes via email, leading to wasted time and inconsistent workflows.

One Portal, Every Carrier
Users often described the quoting process as “copy-paste work.” And they usually took 15-30 minutes per shipment to gather rates across portals or emails. Also, there was a high risk of missing quotes due to fragmented workflows.
Single entry point
Users enter shipment details once, and the system automatically queries all connected carriers.
API integration
Carrier rates are pulled in real time, eliminating the need for manual logins. The redesigned API addition also reduced support tickets by 80%.
Streamlined request form
Simple, minimal fields tailored to LTL quoting so users can launch requests in seconds.
