After your carriers are mapped in your account you are able to send emails out to your in network carriers with load information. This feature is called our Booking Assistant.
Would you like to upgrade your plan and automate your carrier engagement with a click of a button? Learn what the Booking Assistant Addon can do for you through our Digital Freight Matching integrations.

How does it work?
Once load information is submitted, C4's algorithm will do the following:
1. Send offers to carriers within your network that match on the lane
2. Receive counteroffers on your loads and monitor email activity through the Loads tab
3. All carroer replies will be sent to user emails to manage the flow of offers coming in
What is the benefit?
Our customers report the following:
1. A 15-20% increase in carrier engagement
2. Less time spent covering loads
3. Increase in carrier reutilization and less transactional booking
4. More pre-booked freight at a better margin
What could you do with more time and more carrier engagement on your loads?
