Freight leads built from real shipping intelligence.
Find importers, exporters, shippers, and logistics prospects using company and shipment activity, then save them into your CRM and launch outreach from one platform. Live US Customs data across 26,787 active US importers and 124M+ Bill of Lading filings.
Generic databases were not built for freight sales.
- Stale lists
Lead databases refresh quarterly. The accounts that matter — the ones whose lane mix is changing right now — never make it to the file you bought last month.
- Generic B2B contacts
ZoomInfo, Apollo, and similar tools sell job titles. They cannot tell you which of those 80,000 contacts works at a company shipping 4,000 TEU through Long Beach this quarter.
- Expensive licenses
Enterprise B2B databases price for marketing teams. Logistics sales teams pay $30K+ a year for fields they never look at.
- No shipment context
Without a trade graph, your reps open every call with 'where are you shipping from?' — and the buyer hears 'I did not do my homework.'
- No workflow after discovery
Even if you find a good list, you still need a CRM, a contact graph, an outbound tool, and a way to wire signals to triggers. That is four products and ten integrations.
A freight-leads engine, a CRM, and an outbound tool — one product.
124M+ Bill of Lading filings across 26,787 active US importers. Every freight lead is sized by real TEU, real shipments, and real declared customs value — not by guessed industry codes.
Search any importer by name for a one-page profile. Or run a natural-language Pulse query and get a ranked list of accounts that match the description — apparel importers from Vietnam over 50 TEU, for example.
One click on any importer profile returns an executive account brief: lane mix, top suppliers, carrier opportunity, and drafted outreach hooks tied to actual shipments.
Save freight leads, track outreach, log conversations, and watch shipment signals on every account — without switching tools. Built specifically for the freight sales motion.
Launch email + LinkedIn sequences from the same surface that surfaced the lead. Pulse Coach flags carrier pivots, volume swings, and new-lane signals to trigger timely outreach.
Pricing built for sales teams at freight forwarders, brokers, and 3PLs — not for enterprise marketing departments. Free trial. No credit card.
Built for every team selling into the freight buyer.
Find shippers actively moving freight on the lanes you cover. Watch carrier-mix shifts and rebid signals across your saved accounts.
Discover importers and exporters by origin, destination, HS code, or industry. Track lane volume changes to time your renewal pitch.
Identify mid-market importers with the lane mix and warehousing exposure your network is built to serve. Save them, watch them, sequence them.
Filter freight leads by port of entry, container volume, and inland destination so reps focus on the importers in your operating radius.
Surface importers by HS-code exposure or by tariff-action vulnerability so your compliance pitch lands on the buyers who need it.
Find importers landing volume near your DC footprint. Sort by industry, by container cadence, by total TEU through nearby ports.
Find, qualify, save, and reach the right freight prospect.
Filter the 3,508 substantive US importer cohort (10+ BOL filings) by industry, origin, port, lane, or volume tier. No more guessing which database row is actually shipping.
Every account profile carries trailing 12-month TEU, shipment count, declared value, container mix, top suppliers, and lane composition — sourced from US Customs filings.
Browse pre-built trade lanes (origin × destination) with shipper rosters, carrier shares, and YoY trends. Watch any lane to get inbox alerts when activity shifts.
Add freight leads to a watchlist, tag them by ICP segment, assign owners, and route them through your sales process inside the Command Center CRM.
Every importer in LIT carries 5–30 pre-built, role-tagged, deliverability-verified contacts: procurement, supply chain, logistics, customs, freight ops, finance.
Email + LinkedIn sequences with merge fields drawn from the shipment graph. Pulse AI drafts the opener on the actual data so the first sentence is about the buyer, not you.
A clean comparison — no name-calling.
