Frequently asked questions
How is Sifted priced?
Sifted charges one flat platform fee based on your shipping volume and product needs, with unlimited users and no per-seat pricing. It is a subscription, not a gain-share model, so customers keep 100% of every dollar found. Pricing is quoted per account, so there is no published list price.
Is there a minimum shipping volume to get value?
The vendor states that shippers get the most value at $200,000+ in annual parcel volume, and that below that threshold it will still review fit case by case. Buyers with smaller parcel programs should confirm expected return before committing to the flat fee.
How long does implementation take?
The vendor says carrier accounts are synced securely with no IT resources needed, and most customers see data within the first week. There is no stated mandatory implementation fee.
What does SiftedAI actually automate?
It analyzes every carrier invoice, validates contract compliance, surfaces savings and recovers refunds, monitors carrier pricing changes and contract tiers, and automates bill pay, GL coding and claims filing. SiftedAI Copilot answers natural-language questions and monitors parcel operations for anomalies.
How is our shipping data protected?
The pricing page states Sifted is SOC 2 Type 2 compliant and GDPR and CCPA aligned, never sells or shares customer data, and allows no third-party access or exchange. Buyers in regulated industries should request current reports directly, as no dedicated trust page is published.
Does Sifted replace our carriers or 3PLs?
No. The vendor explicitly notes it is not a carrier, broker or 3PL; it is a logistics intelligence tool that pulls carrier data in, normalizes charges and manages carrier performance and contracts.
