AI That Closes Deals. Built Into Your CRM.

Most CRMs are dumb databases with a Send button. ShipScout's CRM AI reads each buyer's import history from live customs data and writes the email a senior export manager would write, in your voice.

What it does

A CRM that already knows your buyer

Open any contact in ShipScout CRM AI. Before you type a single word, the system has already pulled the buyer's last 24 months of customs filings, their top 5 suppliers, their average shipment value, the HS codes they import most, the ports they receive at, and the seasonal rhythm of their purchases. It then drafts an outreach email tailored to that exact pattern.

That is the difference between ShipScout's AI layer and the AI bolt-ons you see on Salesforce, HubSpot or Pipedrive: our AI is grounded in real shipment data, rather than whatever prompt you happen to give it. When the AI says "your buyer Al Mansoori Trading LLC imported 412 MT of basmati rice from Punjab between Q2 and Q3 2025", it is citing a customs filing, not inventing one.

How it works

Five AI capabilities, one CRM

Auto-Drafted Outreach

Click "Draft email" and the AI writes a 90-word pitch citing the buyer's actual product mix, origin preferences, and last shipment date. You edit one sentence and hit send.

Lead Scoring 0-100

Every contact gets an intent score based on shipment recency, volume growth, supplier churn, and product-fit signals. Sort your pipeline by who is most likely to buy this quarter.

Smart Follow-Up Reminders

The AI watches your reply patterns and the buyer's behavior. It nudges you on the day that suits the account, rather than a fixed +3-day rule.

AI Buyer Summaries

One-paragraph executive brief on every contact. Pulls from customs filings, business registers, LinkedIn public data, and recent FTA / trade-policy news affecting their sector.

Reply Sentiment Detection

The moment a buyer replies, the AI scores tone (interested / neutral / cold / objection). High-intent replies surface to the top of your inbox automatically.

Multi-Language Drafts

Buyer is in Mexico? Draft in Spanish. Vietnam? Vietnamese. The AI auto-detects native business language and matches local etiquette norms.

Why it's different

Grounded AI, not generic AI

Three things separate ShipScout CRM AI from an OpenAI plugin pasted onto a generic CRM:

  1. Live customs grounding. Every draft references the buyer's real shipment records: bill-of-lading data, HS codes, declared values and ports.
  2. Trade-context awareness. The model is fine-tuned to understand Incoterms, LC vs TT payment terms, container types, FTA preferences, and buyer-supplier history patterns.
  3. News-aware enrichment. News API feeds (Reuters, Bloomberg, Kraken signals, FTA bulletins) ride alongside customs data so the AI can reference "the new India-UAE CEPA tariff cut on HS 1006" in the same email body.

Real example

Exporter "Spice Origins Pvt Ltd" (Cochin, India) connects ShipScout. The CRM ingests their existing 1,400 contacts. Within 6 hours:

  • 312 contacts re-scored as "high intent" because their last spice import was 30+ days ago and their seasonal pattern says they re-order now.
  • 89 contacts flagged as "supplier churn", meaning they recently dropped their previous supplier (the bill-of-lading link broke).
  • AI drafts 312 personalised emails, each citing the buyer's specific spice mix (cardamom MT, black-pepper grade, turmeric origin).
  • After review, 280 emails ship. Reply rate: 21.4% vs the team's previous 5.6% on hand-written outreach.
