Lanes

Stop re-tendering the same lane every week

Each lane keeps its contract rate, routing guide and history. Repeat loads go to your first-choice carrier at the agreed rate and move down the guide only if it declines

Live in days, not months.

Lanes interface

Lanes keeps your contracted lanes with their rates and carriers in one place. A repeat load skips the full tender cycle and goes straight to the carrier you agreed it with

Features

Contract loads stay at the contract rate

When the first-choice carrier rejects a contract load, the team books it on spot at a higher price, and the customer still pays the contract rate. With Lanes, rejections move down your routing guide before a load ever reaches open bidding

Your routing guide in every lane

Set the first, second and third choice carrier for each lane with their contract rates

Rejections move down the guide

If the first choice declines, the load goes to the next carrier at its contract rate, and only then to open bidding in Freight Procurement

Lane history at hand

See every past load, rate and carrier on a lane before you book the next one

Contracts in one place

See every lane with its route, contract rate and carriers on one screen

FAQ

Common Questions

Everything you need to know about deploying AI Digital Workers into freight operations — from how they work to how fast you can go live.‍

What is lane management in freight?

Lane management keeps contracted routes, rates and assigned carriers for repeat shipments. Cargofy Lanes stores each lane with its contract rate and priority carriers and offers repeat loads to those carriers first

What happens if the priority carrier declines?

The load goes to the next priority carrier on your list at its contract rate. Only after all priority carriers decline does it go to open bidding in Freight Procurement, with the same shipment details.

Do repeat loads go through a full tender?

No. A load on a known lane goes to priority carriers at the contract rate first and opens to bidding only if they decline
