The problem

Without freight & vessel-tracking analytics, teams in trading & supply make these calls on averages and instinct, because AIS, port data are not joined up, and the value in the data goes uncaptured.

How it works

Freight & vessel-tracking analytics tracks cargoes and forecasts freight rates. The approach relies on ML, satellite data. It draws on AIS, port data and is typically owned by teams in trading & supply. The main constraint is data quality. Where the human comes in: chartering teams. It is scaled at leading organisations and piloted elsewhere; examples include Trading houses; Kpler and Vortexa-type platforms.
