Cargo Charterers & Traders

Every offer on the desk,
in one book you can read.

Cargo offers and indications hit the desk all day from every broker. Your agent reads them as they land and keeps one numbered book: load, discharge, cargo, laycan, freight idea, candidate ship. Duplicates collapsed. Re-sorted however you want, the moment you ask.

This is office software, not vessel software. The agent runs at your shore-side chartering desk and reads your commercial mail. It has no connection to navigation or vessel systems. It prepares the comparison. You fix the cargo.

What it does

The whole market, remembered, in one place

It reads every offer and indication as it lands and keeps your book current, so you compare and decide instead of reconstructing threads.

The offers book

Every cargo offer as one numbered board: load, discharge, cargo, quantity, laycan, candidate ship, freight idea or last done.

Duplicates collapsed

Revised and repeated offers merged into one line, so you read the market once, not five times.

Tonnage & fit

Tonnage options compared, vessel and terminal fit checked against the cargo requirement and the dates.

Freight & demurrage scenarios

Compare freight basis and demurrage exposure across offers before you commit, with the source for each number.

CP & recap risk

Charter-party and recap clauses pulled from the mail and flagged for risk before you sign.

Laycan guard

Any laycan within three days of cancelling, flagged automatically, so a date about to lapse never quietly costs you a fixture.

Source · Math · Answer

Every comparison shows its work

Freight, demurrage, laycan, fit. Each number comes with the source line, the math, and a decision-ready answer. Ask to see the email, and it does.

Source
  • "freight $1.2m lumpsum" (owner offer)
  • "laycan 1-4 Jun" (cargo order)
  • "demurrage $18k/day" (recap)
Math
  • Laycan cancelling 4 Jun → 2 days out
  • Demurrage exposure weighed against voyage days
Answer

Workable on dates, but the laycan is two days from cancelling and demurrage is the swing item. Flagged for decision, with the source line behind every number.

On the desk

What it does on a real chartering desk

Patterns from real use, anonymized. Your market, your shortlist, your call.

One clean book

It turns the offer flood into a book you can read

Every cargo offer becomes one numbered, decision-ready board: load, discharge, cargo, quantity, laycan, candidate ship, freight idea. Duplicates collapsed. Want it newest-first? It re-renders while you read.

Never lapses

A laycan never expires on your watch again

It flags every laycan inside three days of its cancelling date, automatically, so a date about to lapse can never quietly cost you a fixture.

Already read it

Ask for anything, it has already read it

“Where is the recap? The CP terms? The stowage plan?” It does not search a folder, it already read them, and brings them back with the source email.

How it works

A colleague that joins the desk, not a platform to adopt

No migration, no dashboard to learn. The agent reads the offers you already handle and keeps the book.

STEP 01

Discovery

We map how your desk compares offers: your chartering mailboxes, your shortlist logic, what makes a cargo workable. Not a sales call, a diagnostic.

STEP 02

We connect and tune

The agent goes live on your hardware, connected to your approved mailboxes, tuned to your book format and your rules. Month one, it asks before acting. Month six, it anticipates.

STEP 03

You chat on WhatsApp

“Show me everything that works for early June.” “Compare these two owner offers.” “Which laycans are about to cancel?” It answers with source and math.

Questions

The things charterers ask first

Does this run on the ship or in the office?

In the office, on a Mac Mini at your desk. It reads your approved chartering mailboxes and files. It has no connection to any vessel systems.

Do I have to forward it the offers?

No. It is connected to your approved chartering mailboxes and reads offers as they arrive. Nothing to forward, nothing to upload.

Will my fixtures and counterparty traffic stay private?

Yes. Everything stays on your hardware. Your offers, fixtures, and counterparty traffic never touch any cloud.

Does it fix anything on its own?

No. It builds the comparison, the scenarios, and the evidence. You negotiate and you fix.

Can it re-sort and compare offers the way I want?

Yes. Newest first, by laycan, by area, by freight. It re-renders on request and collapses duplicate or revised offers.

Your whole market, in one place.

Your desk keeps the judgment. The agent does the reading. Bring a day of offers and we will show you the book.
