Workflow

One structured process for spot freight sourcing

Spoterix replaces scattered emails, spreadsheets, and manual follow ups with a clear procurement workflow.

1

Create spot request

Create structured spot requests from a guided form or uploaded shipping documents. Key shipment details are prepared in a format suppliers can quote against.

2

Invite suppliers

Send spot requests to approved forwarders, carriers, or partners, or extend reach with the Spoterix supplier database when broader market coverage is useful.

3

Choose private or public mode

Run a private tender with your approved supplier list or use public spot request mode with reverse auction dynamics to create a more competitive bidding environment.

4

Compare quotes

Compare price, routing, transit time, service level, and supplier data side by side. Quotes arrive in a structured format instead of scattered email attachments.

5

Award and manage

Award the best option and keep documents, decisions, supplier updates, and audit trails in one place through shipment handover.

New: Express booking

The second shipping path: book courier shipments directly

When the transport choice is already clear, you don't need a tender. Book express shipments directly via the carrier API, from shipping document to booked shipment in about 60 seconds, with no carrier portal and no duplicate data entry.

1

Upload shipping documents

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

2

Review and confirm

Check the extracted data on the approval screen and confirm. Data flows straight from your ERP documents into the booking, with no typos and no duplicate entry.

3

Compare live rates and book

Rate preview straight from the carrier at your own conditions. Compare service options, select, and book bindingly, including pickup at the push of a button or drop-off.

4

Receive label and tracking

The label, tracking number, and customs documents are returned automatically and stored in the digital shipment folder. The recipient automatically receives an email with a tracking link.

For suppliers

A clear spot request flow for forwarders, carriers, and partners

Suppliers receive structured requests, submit comparable quotes, and stay informed without long email threads.

1

Receive a spot request link

Get a structured invitation by email with a direct link to the spot request. No login is required for the first quote.

2

Review shipment details

See origin, destination, cargo, requirements, deadlines, and attached documents in one clear structured view.

3

Submit your quote

Enter pricing, transit time, routing, carrier details, and charge breakdown. Add supporting documents when needed.

4

Revise if needed

Update the quote anytime before the deadline. Every revision is tracked, so suppliers can adjust their offer transparently.

5

Get notified instantly

Receive an immediate notification when the quote is awarded or declined. No waiting and no guessing.
