How the plug-in works for Logistics & Delivery
Shippers want a rate before they commit a load, and small shippers rarely have an account manager to ask. A plug-in with your rate rules gives an estimate by distance or weight and sends a pickup request to dispatch.
The customer describes the job, the plug-in works out an estimate from your published prices, and once they agree it sends your team the request with the estimate and a reference. General questions about services, coverage, cut-off times and quote requests are answered from your business profile.
Your team confirms every quote itself. The plug-in never takes payment and only shares what you have published.
The Logistics & Delivery plug-in is available to businesses in any country. Free setup of your business profile in ChatGPT is for US businesses for now; outside the US, choose a plug-in plan and we confirm your setup with you. Plug-in plans are $24.99 a month or $199 a year, paid through Stripe.
Where it pays off
An estimate and a Monday pickup request.
