For forwarders running CargoWise

Every booking email becomes a shipment. Nobody keying.

We measure it on 500 of your own booking emails in 14 days, scored field by field, before you commit anything to the full build.

Fixed pilot fee. Miss the accuracy threshold we set together and you pay nothing. No licences, no multi-year commitment.

What keying bookings actually costs

The keying is the visible cost. The re-work is the expensive one.

Count one week of booking emails, then multiply by what a coordinator hour costs you. Most operations directors stop debating this at that point.

4–8 min

per booking to read the mail, open the attachments and key a shipment, before anyone chases a missing field.

1–3%

keying error rate on ports, container types and weights. Each one resurfaces as a customs query or an amended bill.

1 shift

of lag between a booking landing in the inbox and the shipment existing in the system. That gap is where your visibility problem starts.

1 person

who knows which shipper abbreviates which port, and takes that with them when they move on.

Do the math with your numbers

Three fields. This is what keying bookings costs you per year.

Per month€3,840
Per year€46,080
The pilot that ends it€4,000 once

Excludes customs queries, amended bills and the visibility gap while a booking waits in the inbox, so the real number sits higher.

The mechanism

How a booking email becomes a shipment without a coordinator retyping it

Not a mailbox rule with OCR bolted on. An extraction and validation layer trained on your senders and your trade lanes, writing shipments through the integration with a full audit trail.

Read the whole booking

The mail body, the packing list, the commercial invoice, the shipper's own spreadsheet. Fields are pulled from all of them and reconciled against each other, not lifted from whichever attachment came first.

Validate against your registry

Organisation codes, UN/LOCODE ports, container types and Incoterms are checked against your own master data before anything is written. An unrecognised shipper stops the booking; it never gets guessed.

Create and evidence

The shipment is created with every value linked back to the line of the document it came from, so a coordinator can audit any field in seconds instead of reopening the email chain.

What this looks like on a real booking email

A shipper's booking request on the left. What the layer extracts on the right. Illustrative example with fictional data.

The offer

The CargoWise Intake Pilot

One fixed fee. Fourteen days. Your real booking traffic. A number at the end that tells you, and us, whether the full build earns its cost.

Not a workshop. The pilot ends with your bookings written into a test environment and an accuracy number your operations lead can audit.

  • 500 of your real booking emails processedYour actual sender mix, including the shipper who sends a photographed fax. Especially that one.
  • Field-level accuracy reportPorts, equipment, weights and Incoterms scored separately, because they fail for different reasons and cost different amounts.
  • Exception analysis by senderWhich shippers generate the most manual handling, and what fixing each one is worth to you.
  • Working write path into a test environmentA test batch created end to end: proof the integration behaves against your registry, not against a vendor's demo data.
  • Fixed-price quote for the full buildScoped from what we measured, not from a discovery workshop. Valid 90 days.
  • ROI calculation on your own volumesYour booking count, your coordinator cost, your error rate. If it does not pay back, we put that in writing.
€4,000 fixed

Against a problem costing most clients €40,000–70,000 a year.
Credited in full against the build if you proceed within 90 days.

The Accuracy-or-Free Guarantee

Before we start, we agree the accuracy threshold that makes this worth deploying. Together, in the engagement letter. If the measured result on your documents comes in below it, the pilot is free. We can offer this because we scope honestly: if we don't think your document mix can hit the number, we decline the pilot and tell you why.

Pilots run one at a time per engineer, so they start in the order requests arrive. Current lead time: about two weeks

Fair questions

The things you should be skeptical about

We already have document capture and mailbox rules. Why isn't that enough?

For your top ten shippers who always send the same template, it probably is. Keep it. The cost we go after is the long tail: the agent who sends the booking in the mail body with no attachment, the shipper whose packing list is a photo, the customer who changed their spreadsheet columns last month. That tail is small in volume and large in handling time.

Can you actually write into CargoWise, or is this another read-only demo?

Writing is the part we prove first, which is why the pilot includes a real batch created end to end in a test environment rather than a video. If your specific configuration blocks it, you learn that in week one for a fixed fee, not in month four of a build.

What happens to a booking the system isn't sure about?

It stops and goes to your team with the conflict stated in words ("the Incoterm says Rotterdam but the delivery address is inland"). It does not create a half-right shipment that someone finds at the quay. The measure that matters is not just accuracy, it is whether the system reliably knows when it is unsure. The pilot reports that separately.

What if we'd rather buy something from the WiseTech ecosystem or an existing vendor?

Sometimes you should, and the pilot will tell you. If the analysis shows an available product covers your sender mix, the report says so and we part as friends. You will have paid a fixed fee for certainty either way. We only recommend a build where the measurements support one.

Where does our data go?

EU-region hosting, a GDPR-compliant processing agreement, and a contract with our Swiss entity in Zug. Nothing trains a public model. Your own compliance lead can review the setup before the pilot starts, and the pilot sample can be narrowed to a subset you are comfortable sharing.

Why should a company our size get your senior engineers?

Because we are structured for exactly this engagement size. The large consultancies staff €60k projects with juniors or decline them; we deliver them with the people you actually meet. That is the trade we have built the company on.
