10-8 Get the extension

Chrome side panel for freight brokers

10-8 checks the load before the quote goes out.

Every tool in this business will help you answer an RFQ faster. This one reads the shipper's email, lays the load out as fields you can fix, and keeps the quoting controls closed until every finding has an answer — the delivery window nobody can run, the weight the trailer can't take, the lane that's backwards.

Run a real RFQ Get the extension

Five shipper emails below, or paste one of your own. Nothing to install, no mailbox to connect.

You fix the load, you set the number, you send it.

The reading, the math and the follow-up are your time back. The checks before the price are your money.

This is the actual side panel. Pick an RFQ, or paste one of yours.

Five shipper emails, each one a load somebody nearly quoted wrong. The panel on the right is the extension itself — the same thing that sits beside your inbox once it's installed.

Advanced AI helps structure the RFQ and prepare the next action. Defined operational checks and broker approval gates keep the workflow grounded.

  1. Lane, dates, equipment, weight, commodity, requirements and contacts, laid out for review instead of read twice.

  2. Correct what the email got wrong, then confirm. What you confirm is what the rest of the work uses.

    Button — Confirm Intake

    Played for the walkthrough — on your desk this is your click.

  3. Each finding shows what it is and why. Correct the load, resolve it, or stop — nothing sends until you do.

  4. War Room is where the quote gets set: the Quote, Target margin, Margin (vs market), your floor, Max buy, and $/mi.

    Simulated rate

  5. Edit the message and signature in place. Check the recipient, the number and the terms, then send it.

    Button — Send Quote

    Demo send confirmed — no email was sent

  6. What they asked sits next to what you quoted, with the economics still in view.

  7. Hold, meet in the middle, counter, accept or decline — and read the message before it goes.

    Scripted outcome

  8. Needs you, In play, or closed — with the whole thread still attached.

    Scripted outcome

Rates on this page are simulated. The installed product prices your real loads with your own floor and margin.

This demo runs on single-load RFQ emails, sends nothing anywhere, and writes to nothing of yours.

The checks

Some loads don't have a rate.

A shipper wants pickup after 4:00 PM in Chicago and delivery in Laredo by 8:00 AM. That's about 1,350 miles. One driver cannot legally cover it, and no number you put on it makes that untrue.

10-8 stops the price, shows the hours arithmetic, and puts the load in front of you — before you've committed to freight you can't cover.

That one is arithmetic. Most of them are the kind of thing you'd catch on a slow morning and miss at four on a Friday.

  • Load facts that don't add up

    Pickup after delivery. A date that isn't a date. Instructions that contradict each other. A rate request missing what you'd need to price it.

  • Route and timing

    A ZIP that doesn't resolve. Origin and destination that contradict the lane. Transit that doesn't fit the window. An appointment you can't realistically make.

  • Weight, equipment and commodity

    Overweight for the trailer. Over the trailer's legal payload. Oversize. Frozen freight on a dry van. Equipment that doesn't match what's being shipped.

  • Safety and service

    A run no single driver can legally make. Hazmat in the notes, by class. Placards. A facility you've blacklisted. Holiday blackouts. Reefer & temp control. Pharma & controlled substances.

  • Your own pricing rules

    Below the floor you set. Fewer sources agreed on this lane, or their quoted ranges were wide.

See every check it runs

These are operational checks on the load in front of you. They're not legal review, carrier vetting, or a compliance program, and no list of checks means nothing in an email gets missed.

Pricing

The load and the money in the same view.

Pricing usually means three tabs and some arithmetic in your head: what the lane pays, what your floor is, what you can buy it for, what's left. War Room is where that lands in one place, against this specific load, with the findings already dealt with.

The number you're sending

The Quote, editable, with Target margin and Margin (vs market) beside it.

The floor you set

Your own floor, and a warning when the number goes under it — before it leaves, not after.

What you can buy it for

Max buy and $/mi, so the margin isn't a guess.

The controls open once you've cleared the findings. You can see the number while you work through them — you just can't send one until they're answered.

You set the number. When a pricing reference isn't available for a lane, it says so instead of filling in a guess.

After the reply

The quote going out is the easy half.

Most tools stop when the reply leaves. The expensive part starts when the shipper answers — ambiguously, or changing something, or agreeing to a number you didn't quote.

  1. Their reply lands on the same deal.

    The counter resolves back to the exact quote it's answering — not the latest one, not a guess. If it can't tell which quote a reply belongs to, it stops instead of picking.

  2. "Take $150 off" becomes a real number.

    Relative language converts against the quote it answers, so you're reviewing an exact figure. If it can't tell what the $150 is off of, it stops and asks you.

  3. An accept that changes the terms is not an accept.

    A reply that agrees while naming a different amount, changing the load, or bundling instructions doesn't quietly close the deal. It comes back as a decision.

  4. Walking away is a clean action.

    No-bid it, or send a polite decline before it's discarded. Nothing declines on its own.

Every quote and every negotiation action waits for your confirmation.

Your day

It's 4:40. What actually needs you?

Six RFQs came in. Two quotes are out. One shipper countered an hour ago, one hasn't answered since Tuesday, and one load is blocked on a delivery window. In an inbox that's a search problem. Mission Control is what's open, in one place.

Not product UI — conceptual lanes

Needs you

Decisions, blocked loads, counters and replies that aren't clear. If it's waiting on you, it's here.

In play

Quotes that are out and negotiations that are live, with whose turn it is and how long it's been.

Closed

Won and lost, with the thread and the numbers still attached.

The judgment calls get their own queue.

Counters, replies that aren't clear, possible duplicates, messages with several loads in them, senders you can't verify, and anything that failed to process — collected in one place instead of scattered through the inbox.

Opening it takes you to the deal, not to an email.

The quote, the replies, the revisions and your decisions all stay on the same thread.

What you quoted, and what came back.

Quoted, won, lost, margin and win rate over the last day, week and month.

Today the workflow ends at your decision and the deal state that gets recorded.

The rest of it

The unglamorous half, which is most of the job.

None of this goes in a sales demo because none of it is exciting. It's also where the day actually goes.

  • The same load, twice

    Forwarded, re-sent, or from two contacts at the same shipper — a second copy of the same request doesn't create a second deal.

  • You won't double-send

    A quote version that's already gone can't be sent again by accident. If a send comes back with an unknown result, it isn't blindly retried, because that's how a shipper gets the same number twice.

  • The request is missing what you'd need

    When required details aren't there, the clarification message is already drafted, listing only what's actually missing. It goes when you send it.

  • Fix one thing, the rest follows

    Correct a fact and every check runs again against it, and the price with them. You don't have to remember what your correction just broke.

  • The paperwork stays with the deal

    Forwarded PDFs and images are captured and kept with the load, so the paperwork sits with the deal.

  • The reply looks like you

    Your name, company, phone and MC on the message. Not a generic signature.

  • You can see what's been sitting

    How long it's been sitting stays visible, so whose turn it is is never a guess.

  • You closed it too early

    A closed deal can be deliberately reopened. Nothing in the inbox reopens it on its own.

  • Something happened at 2am

    Alerts with built-in quiet hours — overnight noise waits for the morning. Critical failures come through.

  • A crash can't eat an RFQ

    Anything interrupted comes back for review, and anything that failed for good says so.

Some of these depend on how your mail and outbound sending are set up. We'll tell you which before you start.

Shipper data

Your customer's contact details don't reach the part that prices the load.

Pricing never sees who your shipper is. The first thing that touches the email is a scrubber that runs on our own machines and swaps names, addresses and phone numbers for tokens — everything after it, including the pricing, works on freight: lane, weight, dates, equipment.

Everything in the email meets one of three fates: kept, tokenized, or destroyed.

WHAT THE WORKFLOW READS

From: [CONTACT_001] <[EMAIL_001]> · [PHONE_001]

[REDACTED] — cut out before anything stores the load.

WHAT YOU SEE IN THE PANEL

[CONTACT_001] — until you click Reveal. Pulling the original back is a deliberate click, and it writes an access record.

  1. Contacts go before anything reads the load.

    Names, email addresses, phone numbers, company entities and signature blocks become tokens before the extraction, the checks, the pricing or the reply see the text.

  2. Some identifiers are destroyed, not stored.

    Card numbers, SSNs and MC numbers never become tokens at all — they're cut out before anything stores the load.

  3. The originals sit encrypted, reachable only from your account.

    The reversible mapping is AES-256-GCM encrypted. Pulling the full original email back is a deliberate click, and it writes an access record — and no other brokerage can open it.

  4. If the scrubber can't run, the load stops.

    Residual sensitive data, or a check that fails to execute, sends the load to your review instead of quietly moving on.

You choose how RFQs get in.

Connect Gmail, or connect nothing: forward only the RFQs you pick to your own 10-8 address. One rule in whatever mail you already use, and it works with any provider.

10-8 reads your incoming mail and never writes to it: nothing is sent, filed, labeled or marked read from your account, and your quotes go out from your 10-8 address — so your Sent folder stays yours. Google's permission screen will mention sending — that's a scope we ask for and don't use; nothing in the product calls it.

Detection is good, not perfect, and the commercial terms of the RFQ stay in processing because pricing needs them. A connected Gmail sees every message that arrives, plus the thread each one belongs to — not just unread, not just the inbox, and not one label. If that's more than you want to hand over, use the forwarding address instead. The 30-day deletion covers what you paste into the demo on this page.
