JCtrans × Starboard: Connecting Freight Forwarding Through AI and Digital Platforms 🤝 At the USA Regional Conference 2026 in Las Vegas, we had the pleasure of interviewing Sumeet T., CEO & Co-founder of Starboard about the role of AI and digital platforms in transforming freight forwarding operations. In this video, he introduces Starboard's AI-powered solutions, including a quoting tool integrated into freight forwarders' email workflows to help teams work more efficiently and win more business. He also shares his vision of a future where digital platforms play a central role in connecting freight forwarders, sourcing rates, and improving productivity across the industry. Reflecting on the JCtrans conference, he highlights the value of bringing freight forwarders together through face-to-face interactions, creating opportunities for meaningful connections in an increasingly digital industry. We are pleased to support these exchanges and help logistics professionals build stronger business relationships. 🌏 #JCtrans #JCtransEvent #Starboard #USA #FreightForwarding #DigitalTransformation #LogisticsTechnology #GlobalLogistics #Conference

A2S Logistics deployed the Starboard Quote tool to send 100+ ocean and air quotes a day across its offices in Canada, Malaysia, Indonesia, and Thailand. We spoke with Shivali Taneja, Commercial Manager at A2S, and asked about the biggest difference Starboard has made in her and her team’s lives. “Starboard takes care of that repetitive work, and the A2S team spends its time where it counts: with customers, negotiating with carriers and bringing in new business.” Core Logistics Brokerage is a large air freight forwarder with dedicated trucks and a customs-bonded warehouse, serving clients in Eastern Canada and the US. We spoke to Pulkit Malhotra, who chose the Starboard Quote tool to run Core’s entire quoting process with Starboard’s autonomous procurement and quoting agent. He says: “Before Starboard, we were old school… A quote could take 20–30 minutes to put together. Now it takes about a minute." Watch the conversations below. Want to quote smarter and faster?
