Maritime Services Marketplace

You approved a PDA estimate. The FDA arrives weeks later, 10 to 15 percent higher, with line items you never agreed to and charges you can't verify. Disputing them means going back and forth with the owner and the agent, both pointing at each other. By the time it's resolved, the cost is already absorbed.

The agent appoints the providers. You don't see who was selected, what they quoted, or whether a cheaper option existed. You're paying for services chosen by someone else, based on relationships you have no access to. The invoice is the first time you see the real cost.

A service runs late, the vessel misses its berth window, laytime ticks over, and suddenly you're exposed to demurrage. But you can't trace where the delay started. Was it the agent? The provider? The port authority? When coordination happens across email and phone, there's no timeline to audit and no accountability to assign.

You fix a vessel and need port services confirmed quickly. But sourcing quotes, appointing providers, and confirming arrangements still runs through email chains and phone calls. Every hour of back and forth is a window where cargo commitments slip, costs shift, or a better fixture passes you by.
