Every freight invoice has a hidden overcharge.
CostClaw finds it before you pay.
Three AI agents compare your quotes, audit 100% of your invoices, and file disputes automatically — recovering 3–5% of freight spend without changing a single thing about how your team already works.
Freight cost leakage hides in plain sight
A $10M/year importer running 30–40 ocean shipments a month across six forwarders loses money in three places — and has no time to catch any of them.
Comparison is manual and inaccurate
Six forwarders, six formats. Per-CBM tables, mixed currencies, inconsistent charge codes. Comparing three quotes for one shipment takes 2–3 hours of pure spreadsheet work.
Audits are incomplete by necessity
Coordinators spot-check 10–15% of invoices at best. The gap between quoted and billed amounts routinely goes unchecked simply because there's no time.
Legitimate overcharges go uncontested
Most forwarders give you a 30–60 day dispute window. Coordinators drowning in quote work rarely cross-reference invoices in time to use it.
Three agents. Zero workflow disruption.
CostClaw's agents work inside the tools your team already uses — inbox, shared folder, carrier portals. No ERP integration, no new software to learn.
Quotation Agent
Extracts every quote from email and shared folders, normalizes charge codes across forwarders, and recalculates true totals using your actual cargo specs — not their estimates.
- Side-by-side normalized comparison, ranked by real cost
- AI-drafted negotiation emails per charge code
- One-click forwarder selection
Invoice Audit Agent
Intercepts every invoice before payment, rebuilds the expected charge from the accepted quote, and produces a line-by-line audit in under 60 seconds.
- 100% audit coverage, not a 10% sample
- Auto-fills your existing shared Excel — no format change
- Approve or dispute with one click
Dispute Agent
Drafts the dispute email, attaches the evidence, tracks the forwarder's response, and escalates automatically if they go quiet.
- Cites the exact quote clause for every disputed charge
- Auto follow-up after 5 business days of silence
- Reconciles credits and closes the loop
Get quotes → Compare → Audit → Recover
One continuous loop, running quietly in the background of your existing inbox and shared drive.
