Terminal49

We provide a platform that automates container logistics, turning various carrier updates into real-time tracking and actionable alerts. Our platform brings together container tracking, shipment documents, and automated workflows to simplify operations, cut down on fees, and reduce risks in ocean, rail, and inland logistics.

We offer comprehensive visibility data from carriers, terminals, vessels/AIS, and intermodal rail, updated hourly. Our platform lets you integrate custom fields, manage documents by classifying and linking them to containers, and use our Shipments & Containers Dashboards. You can keep an eye on at-risk containers, track ETAs and Last Free Days (LFDs), and get alerts for milestones and exceptions. It also comes with collaboration tools, performance reports, and data integrations through a modern API for smooth data flow into your ERP, TMS, and other platforms.

We track over 1 billion milestones for the North American Import Supply Chain, using more than 150 data sources. These include Class 1 rail carriers, terminals, and ocean carriers like Yang Ming, Evergreen, Maersk, OOCL, PIL, Cosco Shipping, MSC, NYK Line, Hamburg Sud, Hapag Lloyd, ONE, CMA CGM, and APL. Our tracking solution has 97% global coverage and 100% U.S. coverage, with a 99.5% uptime guarantee. Over 10,000 operators and customers, including Mazda, Gourmia, Jordache, Coleman, YOKOHAMA, DB Schenker, Jaguar, Valor Victoria, CHR.OLESON, and Hillebrand Gori, use our service.

We were founded in 2017, have raised over $8 million in funding, and have tracked more than 5 million containers.

Our mission is to simplify and automate global trade. We operate with core values that guide how we work and interact with customers. These values are:

• Take Extreme Ownership: We take responsibility and aim to resolve the root causes of issues.
• Be Candid & Respectful: We communicate openly, directly, and compassionately.
• Be Humble: We foster a learning-oriented team that values listening and gaining knowledge from others.
• Challenge the Status Quo: We encourage questioning existing practices to improve the logistics industry.

We have a team of 11-50 employees. Our company started in August 2015 when our founders, Philipp and Akshay, began looking into solutions for the trucking industry. They set up their first operations in the office of AB Trucking, offered by Bill Aboudi, to directly understand the challenges of moving containers from ports to warehouses. This experience helped us develop the first version of our platform.

Our leadership team includes Akshay Dodeja as Founder & CEO and Matt Turner as Co-Founder & Lead Engineer. We serve a wide range of customers globally, including shippers, customs brokers, 3PLs, freight forwarders, and other logistics technology companies. Our culture is guided by our stated values.
