Freightos eliminates modal divide by expanding from air to ocean freight pricing, rate management and quoting

  • Freightos has officially launched WebCargo Rate and Quote Ocean, a major expansion of its multimodal digital platform that brings ocean freight into the same streamlined environment as air.
  • The move enables freight forwarders to manage pricing, quoting, and booking across both modes on a single system — marking a significant step toward unifying global freight operations.

The days of freight forwarders juggling separate systems for air and ocean pricing, quoting, and booking are over. Freightos officially launched WebCargo Rate and Quote Ocean, bringing its proven digital pricing, quoting, and booking efficiency to ocean freight on one unified multimodal tool. This follows rollouts with leading design partners.

Freight forwarders can now manage rates, quote, and book freight on a single digital platform, with integrations to major ocean carriers. Freightos already processes an annualized run rate of over 1.6 million transactions and several times as many air cargo quotes. This landmark expansion of Freightos’ WebCargo solution creates an integrated experience spanning all transport modes, marking a major milestone in Freightos’ mission to unify global freight.

Already live with several ocean carriers and LCL consolidators, WebCargo Rate and Quote Ocean has processed thousands of ocean freight quotes during its beta phase. Early adopters reported quote times that were 75 percent faster, demonstrating the platform’s ability to deliver the same speed and simplicity that made WebCargo by Freightos the industry standard for air.

“Forwarders have long told us that ocean freight is the missing link in digital rate management,” said Zvi Schreiber, CEO of Freightos. “Our next generation Rate and Quote Ocean bridges the gap between dramatically different models of freight pricing. By bringing air and ocean together on one platform, we’re helping forwarders simplify operations, win more business, and deliver faster for their customers. Quick, accurate, consistent air and ocean quotes also help shippers navigate the current challenges facing global trade.”

With WebCargo Rate and Quote Ocean, forwarders can centralize all ocean rate management — from carrier rates and direct booking to local charges and trucking costs — in a single, connected system. The result is faster, more accurate quotes and a streamlined workflow that bridges what has long been the modal divide in logistics. The platform can also integrate with major TMS solutions.
