Apr 15, 2025

New technology for the logistics sector saves freight forwarders time and costs

DataMondial, proudly announces the launch of its latest innovative service: an AI-powered robotization system for processing ocean freight rates. This new service is designed to help logistics providers manage their ocean freight rates and prepare proposals faster, more efficiently, and with greater accuracy.

With the introduction of this AI-driven service, DataMondial is taking a significant step in expanding its services and supporting the digital transformation of the logistics industry. The new method transforms what is currently a time-consuming process—handling rate sheets from shipping lines—into an efficient, digital, and error-free workflow. Manual entry is reduced to an absolute minimum.

No more frustrations

Burt Propsma, founder and owner of DataMondial, explains:
"Freight forwarders and other logistics professionals who work daily with complex rate sheets from various carriers know the frustration—long processing times due to manual handling and the risk of errors. We’ve developed an AI-powered solution to improve this, allowing logistics companies to spend more time serving their customers. Our new service drastically shortens the turnaround time for customer proposals. We’re very proud of our team that developed this AI-powered system.”

Any data that cannot be processed by the AI system is handled by DataMondial’s dedicated ocean freight rates team, enabling the company to offer a 100% processing guarantee to its customers. Propsma adds: “This is a perfect example of how technology and human expertise work together to fully relieve our clients of this burden.”

Key benefits

This new technology offers a range of benefits for logistics providers, including:

  • Faster processing times: AI robots can process rates in seconds, significantly reducing turnaround time.
  • Increased accuracy: advanced algorithms allow AI to process data with unmatched precision.
  • Scalability: the service is flexible and can be easily scaled to meet the growing demands of businesses.

The future of logistics services

According to Propsma, this launch marks a turning point in the speed and the way logistics companies can create and send quotes: “With our innovation, freight forwarders, shipping lines, (3PL) carriers, and warehouses can respond to requests instantly by incorporating the latest rates into their proposal at lightning speed.”

Propsma concludes: “It’s not just about saving time—it’s about increasing the speed and accuracy of logistics operations in a highly competitive market. And this AI-powered solution is just the beginning of what DataMondial has in store for the sector!”

With this launch, DataMondial underscores its ambition to support logistics providers and shipping lines in simplifying and modernizing their processes.
