"As we embark on our digital transformation journey to continue scaling our business, Raft was the right partner that matched our global vision and ambition. Their best-in-class automation platform shone in comparison to all the other options we looked at."
Put your customers first, and data extraction... well, we’re taking care of that.
The platform extracts and consolidates data from multiple sources, identifies missing data points, and validates document accuracy, enabling customs specialists to handle more declarations per hour with fewer (or no) errors. This allows freight forwarders to focus on customer service and compliance, rather than manual data entry, ultimately speeding up the customs clearance process and enhancing overall operational efficiency.
