What is a Transportation Management System (TMS)?

A Transportation Management System is software that helps companies plan, execute, and manage the movement of freight. It centralizes carrier selection, rate shopping, shipment tracking, freight audit, and reporting in one platform — replacing the spreadsheets, phone calls, and manual processes that slow operations down. Corsair is Rygen's TMS, purpose-built for shippers and 3PLs who need modern functionality without the complexity of legacy systems.

What is Corsair TMS and who is it built for?

Corsair is a cloud-native transportation management system designed for shippers and third-party logistics providers. It handles LTL, truckload, and parcel in one platform, with AI-powered tools like OCR. invoice processing, spot market bidding, carrier tendering, and freight audit built in. It's built for high-volume operations that need serious logistics functionality without a steep learning curve.

Can one TMS handle LTL, truckload, and parcel shipping?

Yes — Corsair manages LTL, truckload, and parcel in a single platform. You can rate, book, track, and audit across all three modes without switching tools or maintaining separate carrier portals. This matters for operations that ship across multiple modes and need a unified view of performance and cost.

Does Corsair integrate with ERP and WMS systems?

Yes. Corsair integrates with ERPs, WMS platforms, and other business systems through Rygen's X1 integration platform. Whether you need EDI connections, API integrations, or custom data flows, X1 handles the connectivity layer so your systems stay in sync without manual data entry.

How long does TMS implementation take?

Implementation timelines vary based on the complexity of your carrier network, the number of integrations required, and your team's availability. Rygen's implementation team handles configuration and onboarding, and we sequence deployments to deliver measurable value quickly — rather than waiting for a fully complete setup to go live.

Do I need technical expertise to use Corsair?

No. Corsair is built for logistics professionals, not IT teams. Dispatchers, account managers, and operations staff can manage shipments, rate quotes, and carrier selections without specialized training. For teams that want to dig into configurations or custom integrations, the platform has the depth to support that too.

Is Corsair cloud-based or on-premise?

Corsair is a cloud-based SaaS platform. There is no on-premise infrastructure to maintain. You get automatic updates, security improvements, and access from anywhere — without the overhead of managing servers.

What makes Corsair different from legacy TMS platforms?

Legacy TMS platforms were built for a different era of logistics. Corsair combines modern UX with serious freight functionality —AI-powered invoice processing, real-time spot market access, and financial controls that give operations visibility into margins and costs. The interface is designed so your team can actually use it, rather than tolerating it.

Is Corsair built for shippers, 3PLs, or both?

Both. Corsair is purpose-built to handle the operational differences between shippers managing their own freight and 3PLs managing freight on behalf of multiple clients. For 3PLs, this includes multi-client architecture, client-level reporting, and the ability to manage different rate structures across your book of business.

Does Corsair support spot market bidding?

Yes. Corsair includes built-in spot market access, so your team can run competitive bids across carriers for shipments where contracted rates aren't the best option. This is managed directly within the platform — no separate portal or manual process required.

How does Corsair handle freight invoice auditing?

Corsair includes AI-powered OCR invoice processing that automates the comparison of carrier invoices against expected charges. Discrepancies are flagged automatically, reducing the manual audit workload and catching billing errors before they're paid.
