Transfix launched Smart Uploads and Routing Guide, which together, redefine the pricing and procurement experience for freight brokers.
Built into the Transfix Solutions Console, these AI-driven tools eliminate manual bottlenecks from RFP management and carrier booking, helping brokers price smarter, respond faster, and execute more reliably in a volatile market.
“Freight brokers have long been stuck between inconsistent RFP formats on one end and fragmented carrier networks on the other,” says Jonathan Salama, CEO and co-founder of Transfix. “With Smart Uploads and Routing Guide, we’re modernizing the entire pricing and procurement lifecycle, from ingestion to execution, by combining automation with actionable intelligence. This is a huge step toward building freight’s first quote management system.”
Key takeaways:
· Smart Uploads automatically converts shipper-submitted RFPs into a clean, structured format, regardless of the original spreadsheet layout. The AI identifies key fields, flags ambiguities, and preserves the original file for full traceability, saving brokers hours of formatting time and eliminating costly errors.
· A future release will introduce Smart Downloads, allowing users to export pricing responses in the shipper’s original format, ensuring a seamless, round-trip RFP process.
· Smart Uploads allows for instant AI mapping; error visibility; faster turnaround; and higher accuracy.
· Routing Guide enables brokers to lock in that pricing intelligence with consistent, high-performing carrier assignments. Using historical data, brokers can build high-quality networks, automate recurring freight, and reduce fraud by surfacing only vetted, trusted partners. Brokers can also set rate-optimizing margins and preferences by day or lane, ensuring reliable service with every booking.
· Key benefits of Routing Guide include stronger partnerships; faster execution; reduced fraud; and better KPIs.
