From enquiry to on-contract quote in seconds.
Freightgate turns your applied contract rates into instant, accurate quotes — across ocean, air, land, and rail. Every price is drawn from the contract you actually agreed to, with surcharges and margin applied automatically, so what you quote is what you can deliver.
Quoting is slow, manual, and never quite consistent.
When every price is rebuilt by hand from scattered rate sheets, enquiries wait hours and the same lane comes back quoted three ways. Off-contract numbers creep in, margin gets guessed, and the answer depends on who happened to pick up the request.
Auto-quote from the rates you already apply automatically.
Freightgate builds every quote from your applied contract rates, adds surcharges and your margin rules, and returns a customer-ready price in seconds — on contract by default, the same way, every time.
From enquiry to priced offer, in four steps.
The same logic runs on every enquiry, automatically, so the quote you send is on contract and ready to win the booking.
Receive enquiry
Take in the lane, mode, and details by web form, email, EDI, or API, into one place to be priced.
Apply contract rates
The right contract rate, surcharges, and your margin rule are selected automatically against your policy.
Generate quote
An all-in, customer-ready price is built in seconds — on contract by default, the same way every time.
Send & track
Deliver the quote as a branded PDF, email, or portal offer, and follow it through to won or lost.
What quote automation does.
Instant multi-mode quotes
Price ocean, air, land, and rail from one engine. An enquiry becomes a complete, comparable quote in seconds, not a half-day of lookups.
Contract rates applied automatically
Every quote pulls from your applied contract rates, so the number you send is one you can honour — no off-contract pricing slipping out the door.
Margin & markup rules
Apply your markup logic by lane, mode, customer, or service level — so margin is built into every quote consistently, not added by guesswork.
Customer-ready output
Send the quote as a branded PDF, by email, or straight to a customer portal — the same priced offer, however your customer wants to receive it.
Quote templates & branding
Reusable templates carry your logo, terms, and layout, so every offer goes out looking like you, with nothing rebuilt by hand each time.
Win/loss tracking
See which quotes convert and which don't, by lane, customer, and margin, so pricing decisions are grounded in what actually wins.
Watch a quote build itself, line by line.
Freightgate starts from the applied contract base rate, layers in fuel and accessorials, applies your margin rule, and returns the all-in price — so the quote you send is already on contract and ready to win the booking.

Integrates, it doesn't replace.
Freightgate sits above the ERP, TMS, and systems you already run, and feeds quotes out to them through the channels your team already uses. Two decades of integrations mean most of your stack is already live on day one.
Live in weeks, not quarters.
Connect your enquiry channels and rate sources by EDI and API, or upload the Excel formats you already keep rates in. Delivery is collaborative from kickoff to go-live, so quoting is automated in weeks.

What buyers ask first.
How does Freightgate know which rate to quote?
Every quote is built from your applied contract rates, with surcharges and your margin rule applied automatically. The right rate for the lane and mode is selected against your policy, so the price is on contract by default.
How does an enquiry reach the quote engine?
Take in enquiries by web form, email, EDI, or API, into one place to be priced. Because Freightgate has two decades of integrations in the library, most of your channels and systems are already live, so connecting is a matter of weeks, not quarters.
Can we control margin and branding on quotes?
Yes. Apply your markup logic by lane, mode, customer, or service level, and send the result on reusable templates that carry your logo, terms, and layout, so margin is consistent and every offer looks like you.
Which modes can it quote?
Ocean, air, land, and rail, including multi-mode comparisons, all from one quote engine, so every enquiry is answered the same way no matter how the freight moves.
Where do the rates behind the quotes come from?
From Rate Management, where your contracts are applied automatically on every shipment. Quote Automation draws on those same applied rates, so the number you send and the rate you booked match.
