The Clarity Gap

Why “In Transit” Isn't the Answer

Carriers publish milestones. Most platforms simply repeat them. When ETAs slip, vessels slow down, or ports get congested — shippers are left guessing, watching every container equally instead of focusing on the ones that actually matter.

The Intelligence Layer

We Interpret What's
Really Happening

Carriers publish milestone codes. Most platforms just display them. We translate them into decisions.

Carrier Milestone
GTOD

Other Platforms

“Gate Out Delay”

CargoPilot® Insight

“Gate Out delayed 36 hours due to port strike. Arrival window shifts 2-3 days.”

Carrier Milestone
In Transit

Other Platforms

“"In Transit"”

CargoPilot® Insight

“Vessel slow-steaming at 3 kts. Port congestion at destination. Revised arrival Feb 07 (4 days late).”

Carrier Milestone
DSCD

Other Platforms

“Discharge Completed”

CargoPilot® Insight

“Discharge completed but 48-hour port dwell expected. Factor customs delays.”

This isn't more data.
It's better judgment.

Most platforms show you where your shipment is.

CargoPilot shows you where your money is going.

Demurrage Intelligence

Stop paying
avoidable
demurrage.

CargoPilot uses AI to continuously monitor your containers across ports, terminals, and shipping lines, tracking critical milestones like discharge and last free day in real time.

Our system doesn't just track, it interprets what's happening. It flags containers at risk, predicts delays, and tells your team exactly when action is needed to avoid charges.

Know what matters, before it costs you.
Prioritize the right containers.
Eliminate surprises at the port.

First month using CargoPilot we caught a last free day we'd have completely missed. That one alert saved us over £2,000 in demurrage charges.

The Debrief

Frequently Asked Questions

Your freight forwarder is great at handling documentation, customs, and carrier relationships—but they're checking the same carrier portals you are, often manually.

CargoPilot® uses live satellite tracking to verify what carriers say. We catch delays 12-48 hours earlier because we're watching the actual vessel movement, not waiting for the carrier to update their system.

Think of it this way: Your forwarder handles the logistics. We handle the intelligence. They work together—CargoPilot® makes your forwarder's job easier by giving you visibility they can't provide.

Most customers use both: Forwarder for operations, CargoPilot® for tracking.

We cover ocean shipping lines, cargo airlines, and regional carriers — all in one place.

Ocean Carriers

• Maersk
• CMA CGM
• MSC
• COSCO
• Hapag-Lloyd
• ONE
• Evergreen
• Yang Ming
• ZIM
• PIL

Cargo Airlines

• Emirates SkyCargo
• Qatar Airways Cargo
• Lufthansa Cargo
• Cargolux
• Korean Air Cargo
• Air France-KLM Cargo
• Cathay Pacific Cargo
• Singapore Airlines Cargo
• Turkish Cargo
• IAG Cargo

Plus hundreds of regional and charter carriers. Not sure if we cover yours? Enter a tracking number and we'll tell you immediately.

Nope. Nothing to install. CargoPilot® is 100% cloud-based. Just:

  • Create your account (takes 30 seconds)
  • Enter your container numbers
  • Get tracking updates via email and dashboard

Access it from any device—laptop, phone, tablet. No downloads, no integrations required.

Our AI predictions are accurate within ±1 day about 85% of the time. Carrier ETAs are accurate about 60-70% of the time because they don't account for vessels slow-steaming, port congestion, weather, or transshipment lags.

We factor in all of these using live satellite tracking, historical port performance, and real-time congestion levels.

Intelligence Briefing

Example: Carrier says “Feb 5th.” We analyze the vessel's current speed, see it's slow-steaming, check destination port congestion, and say “Feb 7-8th.” Actual arrival: Feb 8th. That 3-day heads-up matters.

Yes. CargoPilot® tracks both ocean and air freight. Enter an air waybill number and we'll pull live status from the carrier — departure, arrival, customs clearance, and exceptions — exactly as we do for ocean containers.

We cover all major cargo airlines including Emirates SkyCargo, Qatar Airways Cargo, Lufthansa Cargo, Cargolux, Korean Air Cargo, and more. If you ship via air regularly, you can mix ocean containers and air shipments in the same dashboard.

Here's exactly what happens:

01

You enter any container number (like CMAU1234567) in the search box

02

We verify it's valid and identify which carrier it belongs to

03

We pull tracking data from the carrier + live satellite position of the vessel

04

Our AI analyzes everything and generates a plain-English summary

05

We email you instant dashboard access with live tracking updates

Your first 3 containers are completely free. No credit card required. No trial period that expires.
