Automated Spot Rate FTL Freight Quoting
What if you could receive instant freight quotes for spot rate FTL shipments? You wouldn’t need an army of people to get quotes as you and watch spot rates tick up throughout the day as you wait for responses. What would you do with that extra time and the savings from getting quotes faster at lower prices?
An increasing number of shippers are moving away from manual load boards towards API quoting for spot rate full truckload (FTL) shipments – even those needing trucks for reefer, flatbed, high value/risk, and US-Mexico cross-border loads.
To meet this need, LiVe Logistics combines the industry’s most advanced technology and artificial intelligence (AI) with our proprietary pricing algorithm that we’ve developed to quote FTL shipments. We’ve integrated this automated quoting system into multiple transportation management systems (TMS) for several shippers and can now integrate it into any automated rating system that you use.
Automated quoting for spot freight is yet another example of how we leverage best-of-breed technology to provide you with the most accurate, relevant price in real-time. LiVe’s automated quoting even helped one large food CPG redeploy their entire transportation department into other departments.
How Automated Quoting Works
Simply send us your spot bids and you’ll get quotes in seconds. These quotes are formulated using a combination of machine learning pricing algorithms combined with market data from DAT and our own pricing – the human element. We can also adhere to any pricing specific pricing or special rules with custom overrides that are establish when we enter you in our system. Your quote will show up directly in whichever TMS you use either through a direct integration or API.
Using LiVe’s automated spot quoting also helps ensure you get the best price. Getting quotes to you faster allows you to make decisions faster – the longer you wait, the higher the rates even from the morning of any given day to the afternoon.
