Freight brokers
Freight broker software you own, from quote to covered load
Requests, quotes, tendering and the load board on one record, with margin visible from the quote to the invoice.
What you told us, and the screen that answers it
“Quotes go out and nobody remembers what we sent.”
Quote versions and pricing rules live in spreadsheets and inboxes.
Quote versions with a revision reason and a diff, built from your accessorials and margin rules, published to the customer portal.
See the module
“Covering a load takes ten calls.”
Carrier coverage is a phone tree with no record of who was asked.
Matching ranks carriers by lane history, equipment, score and compliance, and tendering runs single, broadcast or waterfall with timeouts.
See the module
“The margin is only real when the invoice goes out.”
Margin is tracked in a spreadsheet until accounting catches up.
Cost against revenue sits on the shipment and updates as legs are bought and billed, with the invoice raised from the proof of delivery.

How it works

Demo
We walk through the screens for your kind of operation, or you try the sandbox yourself.
- 02
Onboarding call
We go through your data and your workflows with you, suggest and listen, and agree what goes where and what needs to be added.
- 03
Build
We shape the platform around your operation and add the pieces you need. Most builds are handed over in 14 days; your timeline is confirmed in writing after the onboarding call.

Migration
We migrate you free with any Cargohold build: we move your data from your current system at no cost. If your current vendor makes exporting hard, we work with their support or build a workaround. Migration time is agreed at onboarding and comes on top of the build.

Questions
What happens to our carriers, lanes and quotes?
Free migration: we review your data with you, agree what moves where, and move it into your new system at no cost. Migration time is agreed at onboarding and comes on top of the build. If your current vendor makes exporting hard, we work with their support or build a workaround.
Who owns the system?
You do. The code and the data are yours, and the system runs on your own server, which we set up for you. There are no per-truck, per-dispatch or per-client fees.
