The Agentic TMS for Freight Forwarders & Customs Brokers

See it in action

Inside the platform.

Seven specialist agents, each owning one step from inbound email to closed file, with every action logged and ready for your review.

Win the business before your competitor replies

Reads the RFQ, checks your rate tables and margin targets, and sends back a number you can stand behind.

No more chasing carriers for a cut-off

Vessel, voyage, and every cut-off get confirmed over EDI the moment the booking goes out.

Compliance paperwork stops being a bottleneck

VGM, export declaration, SI, B/L, and ISF get filed at origin while drayage is already moving.

Know about the delay before your customer does

Demurrage and rollover risk are scored continuously from live EDI milestones, not a weekly check-in.

Your broker reviews, not re-keys

Invoice and packing list data is extracted and pre-built into the entry, so the broker is checking work instead of doing it.

Proof of delivery, without the follow-up call

Rail, drayage, and final mile are tracked automatically through unload and POD capture.

Close the job with your margin intact

Invoices are three-way matched and reconciled automatically, so nothing slips through before the customer’s billed.

Why Deep Cognition

Freight forwarding runs on people and paperwork. Volumes rise, margins tighten, and skilled staff are hard to find. Too much of the day goes to manual data entry, chasing documents, and firefighting. We automate that work so your team can focus on customers.

Manual data entry

Hours typing the same details from invoices, bills of lading, and packing lists.

Scattered work

Shipments coordinated across email, spreadsheets, and portals with no single thread.

Unforgiving compliance

Customs and trade rules are complex and costly to get wrong.

Problems found late

Delays and exceptions surface after they’ve already cost time and money.

What we automate

Across your core freight-forwarding workflows.

From the first quote to the final invoice, the AI handles the repetitive work and hands your team the exceptions.

Why It Matters

Legacy TMS vs. Spreadsheets + Email vs. Agentic TMS

	Legacy TMS	Spreadsheets + Email	Agentic TMS
Shipment record	One system, slow to adapt	Fragmented across files and inboxes	One system, one record
New work types	Custom configuration	A new tab or template	Modular, extends per role
Repetitive work	Manual, human-driven	Manual, human-driven	AI agents, supervised
Exceptions	Reactive, found late	Missed until someone checks	Flagged proactively, routed to the right role
Human control	Full, but slow	Full, but inconsistent	Full — agent autonomy set per task

Launch Article

Introducing Agentic TMS: The Agentic TMS

Ask a forwarder what’s wrong with their tech stack and you’ll hear “too many tools.” That’s not where the day gets lost — it’s lost in the inbox and the spreadsheet, where people do the coordinating that software never did. The launch article covers the thinking behind Agentic TMS: why the human shouldn’t be the integration layer, how an AI team takes over the grunt work while every consequential decision routes to a person, and what that means for audit trails, autonomy controls, and scaling branch to branch.

Less Time Chasing Paper. More Time Making the Decisions That Move Freight.

Agentic TMS gives freight forwarders and customs brokers one place to see, manage, and act on every shipment — with an AI team doing the grunt work so your people can focus on the decisions that actually need them.
