Freight quoting in Gmail and Google Workspace

Freight quoting in Gmail is the simplest Laneworks setup: forward a quote request from Gmail and the priced reply, written from your own rate sheet, comes back in about two minutes. With auto-reply switched on, fully priced quotes go straight to the customer from your own Google Workspace address, nights and weekends included.

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.

Setting it up in Google Workspace

Forwarding: forward by hand, or add a Gmail filter that forwards requests from your quotes@ address. Gmail asks you to confirm the forwarding address once.
Auto-reply: your Workspace admin authorises Laneworks to send from the quoting mailbox only (one entry under domain-wide delegation, send permission only). Replies then come from your own address, threaded under the customer's email.
Drafts first: until you're comfortable, every reply comes to your team as a draft to check and send.

What else comes with it

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

Questions

Can Laneworks read our whole mailbox?

No. It only sees the emails you forward to it. For auto-reply it gets send permission on the quoting mailbox, nothing else.

Does it work with Gmail on a personal account?

Forwarding works from any Gmail account. Auto-reply from your own address needs Google Workspace.

How do we test it?
