AGENT 1 OF 6 · QUOTATION

From RFQ to accepted quote — without your team typing one.

The Quotation Agent reads incoming RFQs in any format, drafts the quote with margin protection and risk flags, manages negotiation, and confirms acceptance. Your team reviews. The customer never sees a different interface.

WHAT IT DOES

Six capabilities. All of them concrete.

No 'AI for quoting' vagueness. Here's exactly what the Quotation Agent handles — and what stays with your team.

Reads RFQs in any format

"Express courier delivery to UAE for 25 kg medical sample from Pune, by Friday." A photo of a packing list. An email thread with five back-and-forths. The agent extracts the brief — regardless of how it arrived.

Four languages out of the box

English · Arabic · Hindi · Mandarin. Mixed-language threads parsed correctly — the kind mid-market forwarders see every day. Customizable for more.

Looks up rates against your full pricing context

Your rate cards. Live carrier rates. This customer's last shipment on the lane. Comparable quotes from the past 90 days. All weighted into the margin calculation.

Drafts the quote with margin + risk flags

Calculates planned cost vs proposed price. Surfaces 'this customer typically pushes back 8–12%'. Flags currency exposure on multi-leg routes. The draft lands on your task screen.

Manages negotiation rounds

Customer comes back with a counter? The agent reads it, weighs it against your customer history, prepares the revision. You approve or refine — you don't start from scratch.

Confirms acceptance, hands off cleanly

When the customer accepts, the agent flips status, archives the thread on the Job Order, and hands off to the Booking Agent. Acceptance Confirmation is locked to Supervised by default — never auto.

HOW IT WORKS

Four steps. One human gate.

The agent handles three out of four. Your team owns the judgement call in the middle.

INBOUND

RFQ arrives

WhatsApp message, email, a forwarded thread — the customer's existing channel. No portal. No new login.

AGENT

Reads & prepares

Parses the brief. Looks up rates. Calculates margin. Drafts the reply. Flags risks. Median: 21 seconds.

HUMAN GATE

Your team reviews

Task lands on the screen with everything pre-prepared. One click: Approve · Refine · Reject.

OUTBOUND

Reply on the same thread

Customer sees a reply on the same WhatsApp or email they started — not a vendor portal notification.

AUTONOMY DEFAULT

Acceptance Confirmation is locked to Supervised by default.The agent will never confirm a deal on its own. Other steps (drafting, negotiation prep) you can dial up to Auto when you're ready.

SEE IT RUN · QUOTE PREP BUCKET

Your team starts the day looking at one bucket.

Every pending quote — across every customer, every lane, every carrier — sits in one colour-coded queue. Pre-prepared by the agent. Sorted by SLA.

NEXT IN THE FAMILY

When the customer says yes, the Booking Agent takes it from here.

All six agents work as one team — handing off cleanly, sharing customer context, never asking the customer for the same thing twice.

READY WHEN YOU ARE

Quoting is the first place most pilots start.

Customer comparison shopping happens at minute zero. If the agent handles your quote queue, response time collapses — and win rate follows.
