Kaede New from Dahal Tech

Run your whole freight forwarder

Kaede runs a whole freight forwarder, from the first enquiry to the delivery at the door and payday: air waybills and AWB stock, door-to-door dispatch, rates for every mode, and the team's attendance and payroll. You can ask it about your shipments in plain words.

  • Every air waybill on one screen, with its status and follow-ups
  • Door to door: pickups, deliveries, drivers and cash on delivery
  • Rates for air, sea, road and rail, compared in one quote
  • Staff, duty board, leave, attendance and payroll
  • English, Nepali and Japanese
Kaede

A new customer with its address and contact person, in one form, saved into your companies.

Speed

A new air waybill in under a minute

Take the next number from the airline's stock, type the route in one line, add pieces, weight and goods, and save. Kaede checks each step as you go and shows the waybill the way it prints.

  • The next number comes from the airline's AWB stock
  • The route typed in one line, the way an airline writes it
  • Customers, goods and HS codes offered from your own past shipments

Made to measure

Shape any workflow in your forwarding office

Each person picks a dashboard for their role, then adds, removes and reorders the cards. The AWB workbench opens the way each desk likes. Export, import, consolidation, dangerous goods, new customers and month-end billing start as ready checklists that you change, and you can add your own.

  • Dashboards suggested for each role, then changed card by card
  • Workbench layouts for entry, follow-up or the full view
  • Task checklists with your own steps and order

Kaede: rates and routes

From Kathmandu to a door abroad, in one quote

Nepal has no sea port, so a shipment often goes by road, then rail, then sea. Kaede keeps the rates for every leg and joins them into one route. You see each leg, its carrier and its price, and the total.

  • Rates for air, sea, road and rail, from your airlines, shipping lines, trucking and rail partners
  • Through routes from a dry port to a door, priced leg by leg
  • A through route is ranked against air and road in the same search
  • Quote to a whole country, and Kaede tries every gateway

AI in both systems

Ask AI in CAS360, and Ask about cargo in Kaede

Type a question the way you would ask a colleague. Small spelling mistakes are fine. Each system answers from your own records and shows how it read your question.

Ask AI in CAS360

Ask about your books: who owes you, what you sold, what is late.

Ask about cargo in Kaede

Ask about your shipments: top consignees, shipments by month, busy lanes.

Kaede
  • Every figure comes from your own records, never from a guess
  • It only reads your records. It never changes them
  • Answered by our own AI, made for CAS360 and Kaede

Ask AI in CAS360 is in beta.
