LoadGuard
00The platform

Everything your shipment can finally tell you.

LoadGuard turns every signal — device, email, documents, tracking — into one record you can search, ask in plain language, and take to a claim.

01What you can do

Everything LoadGuard puts at your fingertips.

No portal-hopping, no spreadsheets, no reconstructing after the fact. Here is what you can do — and below, how each part works.

Link every email into one tenant-isolated view of what's moving across your channels.

Automatically process every document — fields extracted and consolidated in the dashboard.

Track from the moment you onboard a device — the whole journey laid out in front of you.

Understand any shipment at a glance — entities resolved across documents, voyages, and containers.

Ask natural-language questions on WhatsApp or the dashboard, anywhere.

Get alerted before arrival — and make claims backed by hard device evidence.

03In the cloud

A continuously evolving digital record.

Physical telemetry alone isn't the whole story. LoadGuard fuses telemetry with communications, documents, and logistics data into one continuously evolving record — correlated by container, bill of lading, vessel, voyage, and port. The bill of lading stays the source of truth. (The services that build it are detailed below.)

04In your hands

Manage cargo by exception.

LoadGuard turns shipment intelligence into practical tools — so teams act on what matters instead of manually assembling information across systems.

Did this container stay within specification?
Yes — except one 4-hour excursion to 16.1 °C on day 11, which recovered on its own. Door stayed sealed until the destination port.From the shipment record · telemetry · day 11

05Under the hood

The services that build the record.

LoadGuard runs as a set of connected services. Each one ingests a source, structures it, and feeds the unified record — here is how a shipment's data actually moves, edge to action.

Ingest

Five services turn each raw source — devices, mail, documents, carrier and vessel data — into structured shipment facts.

Telemetry ingestion

Device measurements arrive over an authenticated channel. The platform resolves the device, drops duplicates, fills missing location from cell-tower data, normalizes readings, and classifies each leg as sea or land by port proximity.

  • Authenticated
  • Device resolution
  • Dedup
  • Cell-tower geolocation
  • Sea / land legs

Email ingestion

Inbound shipment mail is parsed and read by AI into structured events — parties, containers, vessel, voyage, ETAs — even from forwarded chains and quoted replies, with safeguards against re-processing the same message.

  • AI extraction
  • Forwarded chains
  • Quoted replies
  • Idempotent

Document processing

Attachments run through OCR, then AI extracts structured bill-of-lading and invoice fields — each one traceable back to the source document.

  • OCR
  • AI extraction
  • B/L & invoice fields
  • Traceable

Container tracking

On a regular cycle, the platform pulls journey legs, port calls, and ETAs from carrier data — reconciled against live vessel positions.

  • Scheduled
  • Carrier data
  • Legs & ETAs
  • AIS reconciliation

Vessel tracking

Live AIS positions are tracked for every active voyage's vessel — position, heading, and speed — grounding the journey in reality.

  • AIS data
  • Position
  • Heading & speed
  • Active voyages
Resolve

One service stitches every source into a single record, keyed so it can be reached by any identifier.

Entity resolution

Every signal is normalized — bill-of-lading, container, vessel, and voyage numbers in canonical form — and linked by entity, so a shipment with its containers, voyages, emails, and documents resolves into one record with full provenance.

  • Normalized keys
  • Cross-source links
  • Provenance
  • Any identifier
Act

Two services turn the record into answers and exceptions.

AI agent

An AI agent with a read-only view of the record and a catalog of tools — lookup by B/L or container, telemetry, active alerts, port-dwell, excursion reports — answers questions on the dashboard and over WhatsApp.

  • Read-only record
  • Tool catalog
  • Plain language
  • Dashboard + WhatsApp

Alerting engine

Journey evaluation fires alerts — late shipment, container diverted, vessel change — that move through an Open → Acknowledged → Resolved lifecycle with a durable, de-duplicated history.

  • Late
  • Diverted
  • Vessel change
  • Open → Ack → Resolved

It comes together at the record: every ingestion service feeds the same normalized, tenant-isolated record, entity resolution links them, and the agent and alerting engine read straight back from it — so a shipment's full history is one query away, by any identifier.

06End state

One source of truth for visibility and cargo integrity.

Instead of reconstructing what happened after something goes wrong, LoadGuard builds each shipment's digital story as it happens — and compiles it into defensible evidence on demand.

Frequently Asked Questions

LoadGuard works with any standard shipping container and any cargo. Devices mount directly onto containers without retrofitting, and the platform adapts monitoring, alerting, and reporting to each shipment's requirements.

Devices operate autonomously offline: they keep sensing, evaluate significant events locally, and preserve evidence on durable on-device storage, then synchronize with the cloud once connectivity is restored — so the evidence chain never breaks.

An operator mounts the device on a standard container and captures photos of the container, device, and seal. The platform reads the ISO 6346 container ID by computer vision with confidence scoring and binds the device to the container, establishing a verifiable chain of custody.

Each ruggedized, battery-powered device monitors location, temperature, humidity, atmospheric chemistry, motion, shock, orientation, light, and door events. It is built for global transit with battery life up to two years depending on reporting frequency.

Yes. The platform ingests your emails and shipment documents and integrates external container and vessel tracking, correlating everything into one shipment record alongside device telemetry — and into defensible evidence packages for compliance and claims.

Stop reconstructing what happened to your cargo. Start knowing.

Give every container the senses to feel its journey, the memory to record it, the voice to speak for it, and a witness to prove it.
