📨 No More Quoting at 16:59: How AI Is Killing the Worst Parts of Your Day

If you work in transport or logistics, there’s a good chance you don’t care about “route optimization” or “demand forecasting.”
What you do care about is this:

Another customer just sent a vague booking request at 16:59, and now you’re stuck figuring out where it’s going, what service it needs, whether the weight is even included—and then scrambling to get a rate before cutoff.

This is the reality in most logistics offices:

A mess of emails
Copy-pasting into TMS systems
Manual quoting
Manual booking
Manual follow-ups
And chasing people for missing info

What if AI could actually do this part?

Not predict it. Not dashboard it.
But do it.

That’s exactly what a new wave of AI tools is starting to deliver—and @LogiFlow AI is one of the companies leading the charge.

❌ The Old Way: Logistics by Inbox & Gut Instinct

Let’s be real. Logistics teams don’t sit around running simulations or tweaking forecasting models. They’re:

Reading 100+ emails per day
Manually parsing half-complete requests
Logging into multiple systems
Copying shipment data from Outlook to TMS
Chasing down missing reference numbers, weights, or addresses
Rechecking price matrices
Sending offers manually
Booking manually
Sending BOLs manually
Following up manually
Repeating

It’s a miracle anything moves at all.

🤖 Enter: AI That Lives in Your Inbox

@LogiFlow AI is a new kind of AI agent that lives right where the action is: inside your email.

It reads logistics emails just like a real person—except it doesn’t get tired or distracted.

Here’s what it actually does:

Detects whether an email is a quote request, booking, or something else
Extracts key info (addresses, pallet counts, service type, etc.)
Notices if something’s missing and asks for it automatically
Connects to your TMS or pricing engine to fetch rates
Replies to the customer with a full quote
Once confirmed, creates the booking in your system
Sends confirmations and documents
All while keeping you in the loop

No dashboards. No new systems to log into.
Just an assistant that handles the boring stuff.

🧠 Smarter Than a Template, Faster Than You

What makes this different from old-school automation or rules-based email filters?

LogiFlow isn’t just parsing static templates—it understands what people mean.

So when someone writes:

"Can you pick up 2 pallets from us and get it to Bergen tomorrow?"

...it knows that:

“us” = the customer’s warehouse in Vestby (because it remembers that)
2 pallets probably means 80x120 cm
this is a quote request
and that it needs to pull prices from Opter or your TMS

It can even suggest the right service level based on delivery date and volume—no guesswork needed.

⚙️ What Gets Automated?

Here’s what LogiFlow.ai takes off your plate:

Task	Old Way	With LogiFlow
Read email	You	AI
Identify type	You guess	AI detects
Extract info	You copy-paste	AI extracts
Find missing data	You email back	AI asks automatically
Check pricing	You look it up	AI fetches it
Send quote	You write it	AI replies
Booking	You fill forms	AI books
Confirmation	You attach BOL	AI sends it

All of that happens in minutes instead of hours.
And you’re still in control—review if you want, or just let it run.

💸 What It Means in the Real World

Let’s say you're a freight forwarder or transport planner.

You handle ~50 requests a day
Each takes 6–8 minutes just to quote and book
That’s 5–6 hours of click-work daily

@LogiFlow AI can cut that by 70–90%

“We didn’t hire more people when volume went up. We just let the AI handle it,”
— One user

A logistics company with 10 users saved over 3,300 hours in a year and dramatically reduced errors and missed deadlines.

🧾 Bonus: Cleaner Data, Better Invoicing, Fewer Surprises

Because the AI ensures everything is complete and correct before a booking is made, there’s less drama later:

✅ No more mystery invoices with missing PO refs
✅ No more forgotten customs info
✅ No more calls from carriers wondering what they’re picking up

Since everything is structured, invoicing, cost control, and performance tracking become actually doable.

🧭 Should You Care?

If you're a warehouse coordinator, freight forwarder, transport planner, or ops manager—you know what chaos looks like.

And you also know that dashboards don’t fix it.
People do.
Or now… AI does.

LogiFlow.ai isn’t here to replace you.
It’s here to take the crap off your plate so you can focus on problems that actually matter:
Customer escalations, delays, exceptions, strategy.

🚀 TL;DR

This is the AI that does your logistics grunt work—directly in Outlook.

No new portals
No 3-month implementation
Just less admin, faster bookings, fewer mistakes

If you’ve ever groaned at an email that starts with:

"Hi, can you pick up two pallets for Hamburg?"

@LogiFlow AI might be exactly what you’ve been waiting for.
