## Reminder guidance for this contract type

### Cargo-claim windows bar recovery the moment they close

Freight and logistics agreements carry some of the strictest deadlines in commercial contracting. Claims for lost or damaged cargo must be notified within a defined window (sometimes days for visible damage, months under conventions for the rest), and once it closes, the claim is barred no matter how clear the loss. The decision to claim often waits on investigation and documentation, which eats into the window. Tracking the claim deadline as a reminder the moment a loss is identified, with an owner to assemble the file, is what keeps a recoverable loss from becoming a write-off.

### Rates and free time decide the real cost of shipping

The headline freight rate is only valid for a period; when it expires it can revert to a higher standard tariff, quietly raising logistics costs until someone renegotiates. Free time works the same way: containers carry a set number of days before demurrage and detention charges start accruing, and those charges escalate fast. Both are date-driven and both are easy to let slip in day-to-day operations. Reminders tied to rate-validity expiry and free-time limits keep procurement renegotiating on schedule and operations returning equipment before the meter starts.

## Quick answers

Short answers to the questions we get most about reminder extraction.

- **Q:** How does the freight forwarding agreement reminder work?
  **A:** Upload your freight forwarding, logistics, or 3PL agreement as a PDF or DOCX. We run an AI extraction on the document, find the rate-validity dates, demurrage and detention free time, renewal dates, and cargo-claim windows, and suggest reminder dates for each. You can then start a free Contracko trial to track everything automatically, or note the dates yourself.

- **Q:** Does it surface cargo-claim deadlines?
  **A:** Yes, and they are unforgiving. Claims for lost or damaged cargo must usually be filed within a strict contractual or statutory window; miss it and recovery is barred regardless of the merits. The tool surfaces the claim window so a claim is filed in time to preserve the right to recover.

- **Q:** What happens after the extraction?
  **A:** You'll see a list of suggested reminders pulled from your agreement, each anchored to the clause it came from. From there you can start a free Contracko trial to track them automatically with email alerts and owner assignments, or just note the dates yourself.

- **Q:** Can it track many logistics agreements?
  **A:** The free tool reads one agreement at a time. Logistics and supply-chain teams managing multiple forwarders use a Contracko trial to keep every rate-validity date, renewal, and claim window in one tracked view.

- **Q:** What happens to my contract after I upload it?
  **A:** Your agreement is transmitted over TLS encryption and processed by AI providers under terms that exclude training on your data. If you start a Contracko trial, the file moves into your private workspace and stays there.
