How it works
- Forward the customer's quote request to your Laneworks address, attachments and all.
- We read it: lane, cargo, weights and dimensions, Incoterm and delivery address are pulled out of the email and any packing list.
- We price it by fixed rules against your own rate sheet. The AI never sets a price, and every line names the rate-sheet row it came from.
- Sent for you, or checked by you. With auto-reply on, fully priced quotes go straight to your customer from your own mailbox, usually within two minutes, 24/7. Anything unusual comes to your team as a draft.
What it costs and what you get
- Free check: forward real requests to try@getlaneworks.com and judge the drafts.
- Starter: A$1,500 a month for up to 150 quote requests.
- Growth and Operations: A$3,500 (500 requests) and A$7,500 (1,500 requests); pay a year upfront and get 12 months for the price of 10.
- Unlimited users, all prices ex GST, cancel with 7 days' notice; one-off A$2,500 setup, waived on annual plans.
Compare that with the cost of one more person on the quote desk, or with the time quotes take today. Most small forwarders spend 10 to 20 minutes on a complete quote.
Questions
Are there setup fees?
No. Send your rate sheet and you're live the same day.
Is it cheaper than hiring?
For most small forwarders, yes: a flat monthly fee is far less than a quoting coordinator's salary, and it doesn't take leave.
Can we start small?
Yes. Start with one quoting mailbox and add more only if you need them.
