SmartFreight and DHL Express: Rate Comparison Report Template
A scheduled Spojit workflow that compares SmartFreight rates against DHL Express for your sample lanes and emails a report naming the cheaper carrier on every route.
What It Builds
A Schedule trigger fires on the cadence you choose. For each sample lane, a SmartFreight Connector node and a DHL Express Connector node fetch a rate, a Transform node picks the lower cost per route, and a Send Email node delivers a side-by-side report so you can see where each carrier wins.
The Prompt
Paste this into Miraxa and it builds the workflow, connecting the tools for you:
Every Monday at 7am, for a fixed list of shipping lanes (origin, destination, and weight), get a quote from SmartFreight and a quote from DHL Express for each lane, work out which carrier is cheaper per route, and email me a report showing both prices side by side with the cheaper carrier highlighted for each lane.
Connectors Used
- Schedule trigger - runs the comparison on your chosen cron cadence and timezone.
- SmartFreight - returns a rate quote for each sample lane.
- DHL Express - returns a rate quote for the same lanes to compare against.
- Send Email - delivers the finished report to your inbox.
Customize It
Edit the lanes (origin, destination, weight) directly in the prompt, change Every Monday at 7am to your preferred cadence, and adjust the recipient address. You can also ask for the report as a CSV attachment or for a flag when the price gap on any lane exceeds a threshold you set.
Tips
- Keep both shipping Connector nodes in Direct mode for predictable, no-AI rate lookups.
- Confirm your SmartFreight and DHL Express connections have rating scopes before the first run.
- To email from your own domain instead of the built-in service, swap Send Email for the resend or smtp connector.
