AI operations for freight brokerages & 3PLs
For owner-operated brokerages doing roughly $1M-$20M in revenue, we design and build the back-office workflows that quietly eat your team's day.
Done-for-you engagements, $5k-$25k depending on scope. AI drafts are reviewed by your people before anything goes out.
Where the hours go
Brokerage work is email-heavy and exception-heavy. Most of the drag sits in four places. We look at all four in the audit, then build the one or two that fit your operation.
Sample walkthrough
This shows workflow 1 from the list above, step by step, so you can see where the AI stops and your rep takes over. Every name, lane and detail below is made up for illustration.

Try it. This is a demo with no real data. Nothing is sent anywhere.
In a real engagement we build this against your own redacted samples, your TMS fields and your approval rules, then test it in review mode before it touches live mail.
How an engagement works
Fixed scope, written down before building starts. Timeline depends on scope and on how quickly we get sample emails, exports and access.
| Scope | Band | What moves the price |
|---|---|---|
| One focused workflow | about $5k-$10k | Number of document or email types, how clean your data is, and the approval rules. |
| Two or three connected workflows | about $10k-$18k | How the workflows share data and the tools involved. |
| Full four-workflow system | about $18k-$25k | Stack complexity, volume, exceptions and training needs. |
Bands show how scope drives price. Your quote depends on your stack, volume and process. We don't promise savings or a specific payback period.
Which workflow first?
Pick the answer closest to your week. Your result carries into the form below so the scoping call starts in the right place. It's a conversation starter, not a diagnosis.
FAQ
Only what the scoped workflow needs: typically a shared mailbox or a set of sample emails, TMS exports or reports, and sometimes read access to accounting data. We prefer exports and limited-permission accounts to full admin logins, and we agree on this in writing during the audit. Accounts stay yours, and access can be revoked at handoff or any time before.
If you'd rather start with redacted samples, we can do the audit that way.
Yes. AI drafts are reviewed by people. Quote replies, carrier approvals and invoices go through an approval step by default, as in the mock walkthrough above. If you later want certain low-risk messages to send automatically, such as a routine status update, that's a rule you set explicitly and can turn off.
AI can misread a document or an email. That is why anything unclear is flagged for a person.
Yes. You decide which workflows get built, what needs approval, and what stays manual. Each workflow comes with plain-language documentation and a way to pause it. You aren't locked into ongoing work, and you can extend scope later or run it yourselves.
We work with email, TMS exports and reports, Google Workspace or Microsoft 365, and QuickBooks. Exactly how each connects is scoped per your stack. We don't claim a pre-built integration for every TMS. During the audit we confirm what's feasible with yours (API, export, email or a manual step) before you commit.
No. It sits around your TMS and inbox to cut retyping, chasing and matching. Your team keeps the judgment calls and the relationships.
No. Results depend on your volume, data quality and how your team uses the workflows. We measure your current process in the audit so you can judge the likely value yourself. We don't offer guarantees or share made-up ROI figures.
Next step
The short form takes about two minutes. It tells us your size, your TMS and your biggest bottleneck, so a 20-minute scoping call is useful rather than generic.
