RFQ co-pilotFor ocean freight forwarders

Ship the shipper's ocean RFQ in hours, not weeks — and never send a broken one.

Arfiko fills the shipper's own Excel template with your rates. Then it checks every cell before you send.

Your prices, your rules. We make sure nothing gets lost.

Illustrative example · invented data

The problem

Annual ocean RFQs are won or lost in the file.

01

200+ lanes, their Excel

Every shipper sends its own template, port names and volume format.

02

Days of retyping

Your rates are copied by hand, lane by lane, under a deadline.

03

One cell costs the lane

A blank THC or a rate in the wrong currency, and the lane goes elsewhere.

The solution

Read. Price. Check.

The numbers stay yours. We handle the file around them.

01

We read the tender

Their template, their port names, their messy volumes.

FAQ

Questions.

What happens to our files and rates?

Used only for your job, deleted afterwards. Never shared. NDA on request.

Do you replace our pricing team?

No. You set the prices. We place them and flag what's off. You decide what's sent.

Do you work for shippers?

No. We're on the forwarder's side. We don't run tenders or benchmark your prices.

Which formats do you accept?
