Problem

Is your freight procurement still painfully manual?

Most companies still manage freight RFQs through email, Excel files, and manual supplier follow ups.

RFQs are created manually
Quotes arrive in different formats
Comparisons happen in Excel or on scratch paper
Supplier follow ups consume valuable time
Procurement data gets lost in email threads
Structured audit trails are missing

The result: slow decisions, limited visibility, missing auditability, and unnecessary procurement workload.

Automation

AI powered spot freight procurement

Spoterix uses AI to reduce manual work across the freight sourcing process, from document reading and spot request creation to quote structuring and award preparation.

Award preparation

New

Book express directly: from shipping document to booked shipment in about 60 seconds

Alongside spot request procurement, Spoterix now offers a second shipping path: direct courier booking via the carrier API. For every shipment where the transport choice is already clear and it simply needs to go out fast, with no carrier portal and no duplicate data entry.

Upload documents, AI does the rest

Upload a commercial invoice, packing list, or delivery note. Spoterix AI extracts the consignee, packages, and customs data and suggests the right service level.

Explore product →

Live rates at your own conditions

Rate preview straight from the carrier through your own carrier contract. Compare service options and book bindingly. Spoterix is the control layer, not a middleman.

Explore product →

Label, tracking, and customs automatic

The label, tracking number, and customs documents land automatically in the digital shipment folder, in the same shipment list as your spot request shipments. The recipient gets an email with a tracking link.

Reverse auctions

Competitive freight bidding with procurement control

Create a competitive bidding environment for freight procurement while keeping control over suppliers, tender mode, deadlines, and award decisions.

Controlled tender windows

Set deadlines, participation rules, and response windows so suppliers compete inside your procurement process.

Explore product →

Better price discovery

Use public spot request mode and reverse auction dynamics when a lane or shipment benefits from wider supplier competition.

Final decision stays yours

Spoterix structures the competition and comparison, while your team controls the award decision and audit trail.
