01 The brief

What the client needed

Customers call or email for every quote and every status update. The operations team copies details between spreadsheets, emails and the carrier’s systems by hand.

The company wants a portal where customers request quotes, accept them and follow each shipment, while staff update statuses in one place.

02 What we delivered

Full portal with roles, API and integrations in 5–6 weeks

Online quotes

Customers enter origin, destination, weight and size, and staff reply with a price in the portal.

Shipment tracking

Each shipment has a timeline of statuses, documents and the expected delivery date.

Roles

Separate views for customers, operations staff and managers.

Carrier API link

Status updates pulled from the carrier’s API where it offers one, so staff type less.

03 AI-built. Human-verified.

How AI and the expert shared the work

AI did the fast, repetitive part. A senior developer checked and finished it before the client saw it.

  1. AI

    Drafts screens and code

    Data model, screens and first Laravel code are drafted from the brief, one milestone at a time.

  2. Developer

    Reviews every milestone

    A senior developer checks security, roles, the API link and the data model each week.

  3. You

    Tests each week

    The operations team tries each milestone with real shipments and sends feedback.

  4. Developer

    Launches and trains

    The portal goes live and the team gets a short walkthrough.

04 The handover

What the client gets

  • A live customer portal for quotes and tracking
  • Staff and manager views
  • The full source code
