Before the shipment · PO Management

Control starts with the order, not the shipment.

Purchase orders live in the platform from the moment they are issued. Supplier, Incoterm, port of loading, port of discharge and status are visible before anything is booked — and every order is followed through to the shipment it becomes.

  • Import orders from Excel or create them one by one
  • Search by supplier, origin, destination or status
  • Follow each order through to its booking

In transit · Track & Trace

Every vessel, every port call, one map.

Route, transhipments, transit times and estimated dates consolidated in a single view and kept up to date — so nobody has to chase a carrier to answer “where is my cargo?”.

  • Route, port calls and transhipments on the map
  • First ETA, transit time and gate out per B/L
  • Sailing status updated without phone calls

Beyond the move · Trade Radar

Your operation, turned into decisions.

Volume by month, concentration by supplier, main destinations and the corridors you actually use. The numbers behind the operation, ready for your next planning meeting or rate negotiation.

  • Containers per month and cumulative trend
  • Concentration by supplier and top destinations
  • Main corridors by port of loading and discharge
