Built for freight forwarders & NVOCCs

Freight forwarding software that does the typing — you do the approving

Open a shipment and it already knows what’s missing, what just arrived, and what to send next. Quotes, documents, warehouse and invoices on one record — and nothing goes out until you press Send.

The platform, one job at a time

Built for the volume of a growing forwarding desk

Each picture below shows one job Linbis does for operations, finance and management. They are simplified drawings of real Linbis screens.

Volume

500 orders become houses in one action

Import up to 500 shipping orders from a spreadsheet and convert them all into house shipments under one master in a single action, one house per order.

  • The conversion commits in batches of 50 orders, each in its own database transaction.
  • Nineteen fields carry from the master to every house.

Masters

Change the master once; every house follows

Change the carrier, vessel, voyage, flight, ETD or ETA on the master and the change is written onto every house underneath it.

  • The master's pieces, weight and volume are re-totalled from its houses.

Money

Every line in its currency. Profit in yours.

Income and expense sit on the same charge line, each in its own currency, with the profit stored on the line in your company currency.

  • A 91-account freight chart of accounts is set up when the workspace is created.
  • Keep the books in Linbis, in QuickBooks Online, or both.

Control

Who sees what, role by role

One switch per role or person hides costs, buy rates and margin on screen and on documents; the sell side stays visible.

  • Every role is set on a permission grid your own admins manage.

Containers

Every container on the clock

Four container clocks: carrier demurrage, carrier detention, terminal storage and chassis per-diem, each with its own free time and daily rate.

English · Español

Every user works in English or Spanish

Each person picks a language from the top bar, and the whole app follows: the same shipment, the same data, every label in their language.

  • Every plan includes the full app in English and Spanish.

One record · not five systems

Logistics software is judged by what lives on one record

Logistics software is the whole operation on one system — the cargo, the floor it sits on, the money it earns, the paper it needs, and the customer asking where it is. The test is not how long the module list is. It is how much of that sits on one record, and how much you re-key into a second system before you go home.

Linbis keeps it on the record. One shipment record carries air, ocean, ground and multimodal, import through cross-trade, on stage flows your own admins design. The warehouse receipt and the release that touch its cargo are records in the same workspace, and the scan gun on the floor keeps working when the signal drops. And one AI layer reads across all of it: inbound email sorted into 24 classifications, and 35 action categories you set to one of four autonomy levels — nothing acts on its own until you raise one.

Usually a separate systemOn the Linbis record
The warehouse floorA WMS with its own item master. Receipts, releases, zones and locations sit beside the shipment. The scan app keeps taking scans with no signal and replays them in order, 50 per request — and a scan that already landed does not land twice.
The booksAn accounting package, reconciled at month-end. A 91-account freight chart of accounts is seeded when the workspace is created, and the ledger refuses to post an entry whose debits and credits do not match. Receivables and payables both live here — storage days and per-piece handling bill out of on-hand inventory straight onto an AR invoice.
Profit per fileA spreadsheet, built after the fact. Income and expense sit on the same charge row, each in its own currency, with the profit and the profit percentage stored on that row. Shipment P&L breaks the file down by charge line.
Each transport modeOne system, or one module, per mode. Air, ocean, ground and multimodal are one field on one shipment record — the same screen and the same charge rows, whichever it is. Your own admins design the stage flow per mode and per operation: import, export, domestic, cross-trade.
The paperworkA document tool holding its own templates. More than 90 document templates ship in the library, over 75 of them rendering live from the record. Forms Studio is a separate browser designer — start from one of 22 ready-made templates or a blank page, and bind up to 288 fields on a shipment document.
The customer askingEmail, or a portal bolted on the side. Eighteen branded portal screens, scoped to the parties on the file — shipments, documents, the cargo you are holding for them, delivery scheduling, approvals — and a comment marked internal is never read out to them.

Every row above is a screen you can open in the product. The receipt that put the cargo on the floor is the receipt the pickup order names, and the row your customer opens in the portal.

Before you ask for a demo

Straight answers about freight forwarding software

What is freight forwarding software?

Software that runs a forwarder’s whole operation — quotes, shipments, master and house consolidations, warehouse, documents and invoicing on one record. Linbis adds an AI copilot that reads what arrives, proposes the next action, and never writes to your operating data without a person approving it.

We’re on another system today. How hard is the switch?

Linbis ships with bulk importers for shipments, accounts, orders and warehouse receipts, so your operating history comes across in files rather than by re-keying. Start the trial with one live shipment alongside your current system — nothing forces a cutover on day one.

What does it cost — and can I see a price without a sales call?

Plans are published on the pricing page — no demo call required to see a number. The trial is free and doesn’t ask for a card.

Will the AI ever email my customer without me?

No. @Linbis drafts the answer and the customer email, cites its sources, and stops at a send gate — nothing goes out until a human presses Send and confirms.

What does the AI see — and what can it touch?

It reads the records and email already in your Linbis workspace to classify, extract, draft and propose. It cannot send email or change your operating data on its own — every write ends in a card a person approves or rejects.

Are the documents just templates I’ll be fixing by hand?

No. The 46 ocean documents — 34 more for air — are live views of the shipment record. The bill of lading takes its letterhead from settings, the vessel and voyage from the leg, the measurements from the commodity lines and the totals from the charges. Change any input and the document changes.

Can it tell me landed cost before I quote?

Per line. Each commodity line is estimated on its own HS code — in the example on this page, three ceramic codes at 4.50%, 9.80% and 20.80% came to $2,185.68 of duty on $20,640 of goods — with the CIF basis, disbursement fees and billing treatment stated explicitly.

Can it build my house bills under a master, or is that one at a time?

Five houses under one master, each with its own house bill, created in one grouping action, with field changes on the master propagating down to the house legs.

How do I choose freight forwarding software?

Test five things on a live shipment. Are the documents live views of the record, or templates you fix by hand? Is landed cost estimated per line, with the basis stated, or a blended guess? Does the AI draft and cite its sources while a person keeps the Send button? Is pricing published, or hidden behind a sales call? Can you trial it without a card, beside your current system? Linbis is built to pass exactly these tests — this page shows each one on real screens.

Start with one shipment

Free trial, no card. Run one live shipment beside your current system — or book a demo and we’ll run your own lane.
