> Cargobase is a global leader in spot-buy freight procurement, bringing industry best practices to enterprise logistics and procurement teams managing expedited, time-sensitive, irregular and project freight across all freight modes.
The platform leverages AI and intelligent automation to replace fragmented email and spreadsheet processes with a standardized, end-to-end workflow. From creating and sending freight RFQs and collecting and comparing quotes to approvals, carrier selection and booking, Cargobase automates repetitive tasks, significantly reducing manual work while helping teams lower freight costs and make faster, better-informed procurement decisions.
Every customer works with its own private, pre-determined pool of carriers and LSPs, vetted and onboarded to their requirements rather than sourced through an open marketplace. Teams can procure across air, ocean, road, parcel, rail and specialized services such as next-flight-out, on-board courier and charter. AI helps teams process information faster, identify opportunities and improve decision-making, while built-in approval workflows enforce procurement policies and strengthen compliance.
Once freight is awarded, real-time shipment tracking provides visibility throughout the shipment lifecycle. Automated freight invoice matching validates invoices against procurement and shipment records, while actionable analytics turn freight data into insights on spend, savings, carrier performance, lanes and procurement behavior.
Cargobase supports enterprise logistics teams across automotive, manufacturing, electronics, semiconductors, aerospace, energy, chemicals and consumer goods. Customers can deploy Cargobase quickly, gaining greater control, efficiency, visibility and measurable savings without the complexity of a major IT implementation.

the manage cost per user
> 
> • Reduce the time the approvals.
• The user can check the process about request approvals and sometimes the tracking.
•I think that CB need to improve other report where the information cross about the invoice for carrier, the QR that the user selected the QR that we not book and the first cost and final cost
