It loses them earlier: when someone messages WhatsApp at 8 p.m. on a Saturday asking for a rate to move three pallets on Monday, and no one answers until Tuesday. By then the customer already quoted two competitors and booked with whoever replied first. The freight isn't the problem. Response speed is. At Catalizadora we build AI agents that live inside your company's WhatsApp and answer that first question in seconds, at any hour, in your brand voice. This isn't a menu of options or a decision-tree chatbot. It's an agent that understands what the customer is asking and moves the conversation forward until it books. ## What the agent does in a logistics company The agent takes the conversation from the very first message and drives it to a concrete result. In transport and shipping that means very specific things: - **Answers service questions** around the clock: cargo types you handle, zones you cover, estimated transit times, documentation requirements. - **Collects the data that matters** to quote or schedule: origin, destination, cargo type and volume, desired pickup date. - **Books the pickup or the sales call** directly into your team's calendar, with no human needing to be available. - **Sends the payment link** when it applies, for deposits or fixed-rate services. - **Logs everything to the CRM**: every conversation, every data point and every appointment lands automatically, with no manual entry. The customer feels they spoke with your company. Under the hood, your team receives pre-qualified leads and appointments already on the calendar. ### A concrete example A new customer writes at 11:40 p.m.: "Hi, I need to move goods from Houston to Dallas this week, can you help?" The agent greets them in your brand voice, asks for volume and date, confirms the route is within coverage, proposes a pickup window and books the sales call for 9:00 the next morning. At that hour, your rep opens the CRM and the lead is already there: route, cargo, date and contact. Zero time lost. ## Why WhatsApp and not a web form Across LATAM, logistics customers don't fill out forms. They message on WhatsApp because that's where they already are and because they expect an immediate reply, as if writing to a person. A web form collects data and promises "we'll reach out soon." The agent talks, resolves and books inside the same chat window. The difference in numbers is direct: a form answered the next day converts a fraction of what a conversation closed that same night does. It's not about capturing more messages, it's about not letting the ones that already arrive go cold. ## What this is not It's not a generic bot with canned replies. It's not a service you rent that stops working the day you stop paying a license. At Catalizadora we work differently: - **The code, the data and the infrastructure are 100% yours.** The agent lives in your account, in your brand, connected to your CRM. No lock-in. - **No retainers, no attached licenses.** You pay for the build once. Operation is pass-through: hosting plus tokens, around $200 to $400 USD a month, with no margin for us. - **Search visibility is handled by a proprietary technical layer.** You focus on moving freight; we focus on getting you found. ## What it costs and how fast you have it Our entry point is **MAGIA Solo: $4,500 USD, delivered in 15 days.** It includes the AI agent on WhatsApp in your brand voice, the website, CRM capture and the content layer that makes you visible. If your operation is larger and needs deeper integrations, **MAGIA Core ($15,000 USD)** and **Forge ($20,000 USD, 12 weeks)** carry the same logic into custom systems. The methodology is the same in every case: Mapping, Architecture, Generation, Implementation and Autonomy. We map how customers reach you today, design the agent, build it in your brand voice, connect it to your operation and hand it over working and owned by you. ## The next step If every night and every weekend you lose customers because no one answers WhatsApp, the AI agent closes that leak. It replies, qualifies, books and logs while your team rests. Message our AI agent on WhatsApp to see it work with your own questions, or book a call directly with me at https://cal.com/pablo-estrada-hlqaql and we'll review your specific operation. ## Preguntas frecuentes ### Can the agent book pickups and sales calls on its own?
