PORTCASTManage supplier listing

Container-level shipment event stream normalised across 220+ ocean carriers: for each container/booking/B/L, a timestamped milestone history (booking, gate-in, loaded, departed, transhipment, arrival, gate-out, delivery), vessel schedule and real-time AIS position, plus a predictive ETA/ETD per leg. The high-value latent asset is the correction history — every ETA the platform issued versus what actually happened, accumulated across carriers, routes and disruption events. That forecast-versus-outcome pairing is the byproduct and is not something a carrier publishes.

Type

Format
Tabular / event-stream — structured shipment milestone records delivered via REST API and CSV, with webhook-style exception alerts; per-carrier normalisation layer over heterogeneous carrier tracking feeds
Volume
Coverage stated as 220+ ocean carriers. Global containerised trade runs to roughly 800M-900M TEU a year across the carriers covered, so with each container generating 5-10 milestone events the normalised event corpus is plausibly O(10^9) events cumulatively — order-of-magnitude only; the vendor publishes no container, shipment or event counts, so this must be sized against their logs in diligence
Users
~50-200 paying enterprise accounts (inferred from a ~$5M revenue range with 35 staff and an enterprise sales motion with 2-3 week API implementations; plus a much larger free-tracking user base that is traffic rather than revenue)
History
6 years
Update frequency
not stated
Growth
Active — Series A on an $11.2M raise with ~35 employees, an aggressive carrier-coverage SEO programme (a page per carrier), trade-show presence, and an active competitive migration offer on the page ('moving off SeaRates? Switch seamlessly'), which indicates they are winning displacement deals rather than defending a static base
Launched
~2018 (Singapore founding per the organisation record for this domain; a Series A with ~35 staff and ~$5M revenue is consistent with a platform of that vintage — note the dates printed on the page, 1967/1968, refer to the carrier PIL, not to Portcast)
