Tally Freight review
A focused web tool for turning carrier contracts into comparable rates and customer quotes.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
Tally Freight is a freight-forwarding pricing tool for teams managing carrier rate contracts. It turns uploaded Excel, Word, and PDF files into searchable rate data, allowing users to search lanes across carriers, compare container rates with surcharge breakdowns, and create single-rate or multi-lane quotes. Quotes can include margins, export to internal or customer-facing PDFs, and be sent as branded messages through Outlook. The product also includes customer records, sailing schedules, inland transit information, stale-quote alerts, and expiring-rate alerts.
The published plan is Tally Freight at $99 USD per seat per month, billed monthly. It includes unlimited carrier contracts, unlimited rate searches, unlimited quotes and PDF exports, mass quote refresh after amendment uploads, sailing schedules per service loop, and a customer directory with multi-contact support. The pricing page also describes beta pricing billed manually by invoice. This structure is straightforward for a small pricing team that wants a paid workspace centered on rate management rather than a broad freight platform.
Its standout capability is the connection between contract uploads and quoting. When an amendment upload affects existing quotes, Tally Freight can refresh those quotes, while alerts help identify stale quotes and expiring rates. That workflow is well suited to forwarders working from frequently updated carrier spreadsheets and documents. The product is delivered through web browsers on desktop and mobile, with Microsoft Outlook as its listed integration. Teams that need a focused rate-search and quoting workspace should consider it; organizations looking for a wider integration ecosystem or a non-browser application may prefer an alternative.
