Forward a customer's quote request. About two minutes later you get the reply back, priced from your own rate sheet, with every line traced to the row it came from. Check it, send it from your own mailbox, move on.
Free. Forward to try@getlaneworks.com; no sign-up, no call.
Forward the customer's email, attachments and all. Packing lists and invoices in PDF, Excel, CSV or Word are read too.
The AI pulls out the lane, cargo, dimensions and Incoterm. Fixed rules then price it from your rate sheet: no AI-guessed prices.
With auto-reply on, a fully priced quote goes straight to your customer from your mailbox. Otherwise you get a ready-to-send reply, what we read from the email, and the price breakdown. If something's missing, the draft asks the customer for it.
Most small forwarders and customs brokers don't quote in a portal. Requests arrive by email, in every format, and someone on the team rebuilds each one in a spreadsheet. That's the step Laneworks takes over.
| Spreadsheet + template | TMS quoting module | Laneworks | |

| Setup | None | Configure rates and workflows in the system | Send your rate sheet; live the same day |
| Reading the customer's email | By hand | Usually by hand: re-key into a form | Automatic, including attachments |
| Time per quote | Often 10–20 minutes | Depends on re-keying | About 2 minutes to a draft |
| Changes to how you work | None | Team works in the system | None: forward and reply by email |

No. It works from email. It never connects to your mailbox, your TMS or CargoWise.
From your own rate sheet. The AI reads the email; pricing is done by fixed rules against your rates, and every line names the row it came from.
The draft says which one is missing instead of guessing, so nothing goes out on a made-up number.
Never. The draft goes to the people you nominate, and you send it from your own mailbox.
Your data is kept only while you're a customer and deleted within 30 days after you leave; your rates are used only for your quotes. The detail is on the data and security page.
