Problem
Freight forwarders often struggle with inefficient rate management and quote generation processes, leading to errors, missed opportunities, and slow response times. Pricing teams spend excessive time retrieving freight rates, while sales teams face delays in accessing accurate pricing information. This can result in misallocated resources, damaged customer trust, and reduced margins.
Solution
Cacta provides an AI-powered platform designed to automate and streamline rate management and quote generation for freight forwarders. The platform connects to email inboxes and shipping lines, using AI to transform rate documents into a searchable database. Cacta monitors incoming RFQs in real-time, extracts critical details, identifies optimal quote options, and drafts email replies. This enables precise quote generation with accurate surcharge calculations, allowing freight forwarders to respond to quote requests faster and more efficiently.
