Key Modules
G2Mint is organized into several core modules that correspond to different stages of the freight lifecycle:
- Engage -- Manage your accounts, locations, contacts, and carrier relationships. This is where you set up the companies and people you work with.
- Build -- Create quotes, shipments, and loads. The Builder is your starting point for moving freight, from entering origin/destination details to requesting rates.
- Manage -- View and manage your quotes, shipments, loads, and dispatches across grid-based views with powerful filtering and sorting.
- Settle -- Handle the financial side: expenses, bills, payables, remittances, revenues, invoices, and statements.
- Agreements -- Set up freight agreements, fuel surcharges, accessorial charges, commission agreements, markup plans, and compliance agreements that power automated rating.
- Analytics -- Access dashboards and reports for insights into your freight operations.
- Configurations -- Configure areas, schedules, commodities, handling units, equipment types, and other reference data used throughout the platform.
