The Operational Shift

We turned a 4-hour manual process into a 4-millisecond API call.

The Old Way (Manual)The LogicLoom Way (Automated)
The Trigger: Customer emails “How much?”The Trigger: Customer uses Web Calculator.
The Math: Staff checks mileage & Excel sheet.The Math: JS Engine calculates rates instantly.
The Delay: 4 hours (losing the load).The Delay: 0.8 seconds (winning the load).
The Result: 15 hours/week of data entry.The Result: Instant Revenue.

How The Logic Works

We built a Calculator API that sits between your website form and your bank account.

  1. Input: Customer enters Zip Codes and Weight.
  2. Validate: Google Maps API verifies the addresses exist and calculates true driving distance.
  3. Calculate: The engine applies your specific logic (e.g., “If miles > 500, drop rate by $0.20”).
  4. Transact: It presents a Stripe Payment link immediately. If the user doesn’t pay, it sends an abandoned cart email.
