Freight quote request email parsing

Freight quote request email parsing is the first half of the job: pulling the lane, cargo, weights, dimensions, Incoterm and delivery address out of a customer's email and its attachments. Laneworks does that, then finishes the job by pricing the request from your own rate sheet and writing the reply, in about two minutes.

Free trial: forward a request to try@getlaneworks.com and the draft comes back in about two minutes. No sign-up, no call.

What gets read

Origin and destination, down to the port, airport or delivery postcode.
Mode and equipment: FCL container sizes, LCL weight and volume, air pieces and dimensions.
Incoterm, cargo description, dangerous goods flags and ready date.
Attachments: packing lists and commercial invoices in PDF, Excel, CSV or Word. Scanned (image-only) PDFs are not read yet; the draft says so, so nothing is missed.

Anything the customer left out is listed in the draft as a question for them, and any assumption used to price it is stated, so nothing is quietly filled in.

Nothing is guessed

The AI only reads the request. Every price is set by fixed rules from your own rate sheet, every line names the row it came from, and anything that can't be priced (a lane or charge that isn't on your sheet, an expired rate, an unreadable attachment) is flagged for your team instead of filled in.

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 else comes with it

A one-page PDF quotation in your company's name on every priced reply.
Your website's quote form handled the same way.
A daily list of quotes nobody has heard back on, with the follow-up already written.
A weekly report: quotes priced, minutes to reply, after-hours requests, jobs won.
A free rate sheet health check: expired rates, missing container sizes, missing charges.

Questions

Is this just data extraction?

No. Extraction alone still leaves your team to price and write the quote. Laneworks reads the request, prices it from your rate sheet and writes the reply, with a PDF quotation.

Does it read attachments?

Yes: packing lists and invoices in PDF, Excel, CSV and Word. Scanned (image-only) PDFs are not read yet; any attachment that can't be read is flagged in the draft rather than ignored.

What if the email is messy?

Most are. Forwarded chains, signatures and replies in several languages are handled; when a detail is genuinely missing, the draft asks for it.

How do we test it?
