QUOTING

Freight quoting software

The first forwarder to reply with a real price usually wins the load. Fretie's freight quoting software compresses the whole quote cycle — read the request, find the rate, add surcharges, apply margin, draft the reply — from hours of copy-paste into seconds.

Every quote is built from your own contracts and priced under your own margin rules, so speed never comes at the cost of accuracy or profit.

Three options on every quote

Autopilot prepares Best value, Fastest, and Alternative-carrier options for each request, so your reply reads like a considered recommendation rather than a single take-it-or-leave-it number. Saved routes make repeat lanes a one-click quote.

Margin guarded by default

Per-customer and per-lane markup rules apply automatically, along with additional charges — BAF, THC, DOC and more, as flat, per-container, per-kg, per-cbm, or percentage charges. A margin guard flags or holds any quote that would fall below your floor.

From quote to booking

Customers approve on a shareable quote link — no login needed. Accepted quotes become bookings, push to CargoWise or Magaya, and flow into shipment tracking, so the quote you sent is the record everything else reconciles against.

Frequently asked questions

+How fast can Fretie produce a quote?

For a request that matches your loaded rates, the agent typically has a priced draft reply ready in seconds — before your team has opened the email. Complex or unmatched requests are flagged for a human instead of being guessed at.

+Can I set different margins for different customers?

Yes. Margin rules are per-customer and per-lane, and surcharges can be flat, per-container, per-kg, per-cbm, or percentage-based. The agent applies them automatically on every quote.

+What happens if a quote would go out below my margin floor?

The approval gate holds it. You choose the policy — require approval never, only below the margin floor, or on every quote — and Fretie refuses to send an unapproved quote.

+How do customers accept a quote?

Every quote gets a shareable public link where the customer can review options and accept — no account required. Acceptance turns the quote into a booking and pushes it to your TMS.

+Does Fretie handle rail and road as well as ocean and air?

Yes — rail is a first-class mode alongside ocean, air, and road, with the same rate matching, surcharge, and margin logic.
