Xfrate TMS - Frequently Asked Questions

Xfrate TMS is a cloud-based Transport Management System designed for businesses (shippers) to manage mid-mile logistics efficiently. It centralizes the management of freight orders, reduces costs, streamlines communication with empaneled transporters, and uses Data and AI for improved logistics decisions.

Businesses / Shippers who work with more than one transporter, and have road shipments.
Businesses moving freight regularly (FTL/LTL) that want more control and cost savings.
Helpful for any business (manufacturer, importer, distributor, etc.) with more than 5 road shipments per month.

Xfrate TMS focuses on mid-mile logistics, also known as line-haul logistics. Mid-mile logistics refers to the transportation of goods between major hubs in the supply chain, that is, it’s the 'middle' stage between the origin point and the final delivery. Examples include:

Port to warehouse
Manufacturing plant to warehouse
Warehouse to distribution center or retail store
Not designed for last-mile deliveries (home deliveries to end customers)
Not designed for courier or small package movements

For transporters, Xfrate TMS is a free tool to interact with freight orders from multiple businesses. Instead of manual coordination via calls, emails, and WhatsApp, transporters can directly engage with businesses using a secure, digital platform. With Xfrate TMS, transporters can:

Receive and respond to FTL/LTL and repeat (lane-wise) freight orders in real time
Access all order details, documents, and updates in one place
Track and update shipment status easily, reducing miscommunication
Build long-term relationships with shippers by delivering consistently
Reduce dependency on intermediaries or brokers for getting business
Improve fleet utilization and minimize empty return trips

Xfrate TMS is built to utilise Data and AI at its core. The more a business uses it, the more efficiency it realises from the data generated. Our in-built advanced analytics and AI form the moat of the product. Your freight data stays completely private, visible only to your empaneled transporters. Unlike marketplace-style platforms, your sensitive freight information is never broadcast publicly. Unlike other TMS platforms, Xfrate allows you to manage FTL, LTL, and repeated orders in one place, something very few TMS systems can do.

How others work: Many TMS platforms simply take orders from shippers and broadcast them via APIs to a set of transporters. The shipper then receives quotes from multiple transporters via APIs. The problems with that approach:

In freight, it’s not just about the lowest quote; factors like trust, efficiency, and capability are critical
API-based quotes are not true competitive bidding as there’s no real price discovery
Logistics teams still end up shortlisting transporters manually, then running another round of comparisons and negotiations, adding unnecessary manual workflows

How Xfrate solves this:

True digital bidding with live bid dashboards and outcomes or fixed rate allocation
Price discovery built into the process, ensuring competitive, transparent rates
All workflows streamlined in one platform, eliminating multiple layers of manual back-and-forth
Data and AI at its core to optimize routes, load planning and aggregation

Yes. Xfrate TMS provides full order tracking using multiple methods, ensuring you always know the status of your shipments. Tracking features include:

App based GPS Tracking: Drivers can use Xfrate Driver app to allow location-enabled tracking. Xfrate can also connect with integrated telematics and can capture live vehicle location
Web based GPS Tracking: For smaller fleets or transporters without apps, GPS triangulation can be done via the web or mobile interface
Manual update: Transporters can directly update location and status changes (dispatched, in-transit, delivered) if they don’t have / allow any tracking
Proof of Delivery (POD) Upload: Digital PODs can be uploaded instantly to close the order and maintain records
Analytics & History: All freight tracking data are stored for performance analysis and historical reporting

No. Xfrate TMS lets you keep working with your existing transporter network. You simply bring them onto the platform for easier coordination.

Yes. Xfrate TMS is hosted on secure cloud infrastructure with encryption, regular backups, and strict access controls.

$499/month for the standard subscription
Optional custom modules are priced separately after scoping
No hidden fees. Pricing is fully transparent.

The standard version can be used immediately as it’s a SaaS + AI product. Businesses only need to empanel their existing transporters (invite them to create an account in Xfrate) and they can start right away. Since businesses will be empaneling transporters, they already work with, the process is super quick. If a business wants to integrate Xfrate TMS with other existing systems, then a custom project will be done after scope assessment and finalisation.
