- Independent freight forwarders in Australia and New Zealand
- Worth noticing
- It routes requests through an email rule and prices drafts from a forwarder-supplied tariff; missing details become questions, not guesses.
Field notes
Requests are routed by an Outlook or Gmail rule to a dedicated address; the page says this requires no password or mailbox access. Operators supply a rate-sheet template covering FCL, LCL, air, local charges, and delivery zones, then review and send the returned drafts. The page says missing shipment details become follow-up questions rather than estimates. Its savings calculator assumes two minutes to check each draft, so the displayed annual savings are estimates, not measured outcomes.
