Problem
Charter brokers and operators contend with fragmented aircraft sourcing, manual proposal creation, and outdated wire‑transfer payment flows, leading to low quote‑to‑booking conversion and compressed margins. Operators also lack real‑time market signals and pricing intelligence, making fleet utilization and empty‑leg revenue optimization difficult. Safety compliance verification is time‑consuming, requiring manual checks of certifications and ratings.
Solution
Goodwin delivers an API‑first SaaS platform that unifies sourcing, quoting, and payment workflows for private‑jet charter brokers and operators. An AI‑driven sourcing engine aggregates over 11,000 aircraft, applies safety filters (ARGUS/WYVERN) and presents the most relevant options in real time. Machine‑learning pricing models ingest market demand, historical quote data, and operator cost structures to generate margin‑optimized rates instantly. The system auto‑generates client‑ready proposals with branding controls, then routes payments through a 256‑bit encrypted, instant‑settlement gateway that replaces traditional wires. Integrated analytics dashboards provide operators with utilization, empty‑leg, and profitability insights, while brokers gain conversion‑focused metrics and alerts. Seamless REST and GraphQL APIs enable plug‑and‑play integration with existing scheduling, CRM, and accounting systems, preserving each partner’s tech stack.
Target Audience
Primary users are private‑jet charter brokers of all sizes (emerging, growth, enterprise) and charter operators ranging from single‑aircraft outfits to large fleets seeking to improve conversion, pricing efficiency, and operational visibility.
